x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x SUMMER x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
Well, things have been slow in the first few days of summer. The only exciting thing that happened were some migrants arriving.
We got 9 new people from the motherland, along with their pack animals and supplies.

9th Malachite
Our very own siege operator, Ilral Uzolsazir gave birth to a lovely little girl this morning. I'll be sure to go and meet her when she's well enough to talk.

As I was walking to get a drink from the river(I had been doing some work around the tower), a pig charged at me! I had to run as fast as I could just to survive! As soon as I could, I sent our military to deal with the swine menace.
They took down 3 of the 5 pigs, and the other 2 escaped. But as they headed back to the fort, they noticed turkeys. Not wanting a repeat incident, I ordered them to kill those turkeys, too.

As my farm needs extreme amounts of grates and hatch covers, I built a new mason's workshop at the end of the hallway to help lighten the load for the other hardworking mason.

11th Galena
As I passed Momuz Odrozmafol the metalsmith in the hallway, she suddenly screamed about 'inspiration' and 'the gods have truly blessed me'
and ran, shrieking all the way, to the metalsmith's forge and began a mysterious construction with a bar of iron she had grabbed.

15th Galena
When I entered the dining room this morning, I noticed something I had not in my drunken stupor. In the corner, by the doorway, was the HALF ROTTED CORPSE OF A DWARF. I kid you not. Something must be done about this immediately.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
16th Galena
This morning, as I passed the metalsmith's forge, momuz walked out looking very proud of herself and holding a small object above her head to be revered by all other dwarves. She claimed it was Nicatlilar, or 'ChainPattern' in native tongue, and showed me the little dwarf carved into it. I estimated it to be worth 24000 dwarfbucks. After all, it IS of the highest craftsdwarfship.

Today, I ordered all the stone clogging up the rooms to be stacked in the middle of the hallway near the workroom. The dwarves have gotten to it and we now have a quantum stockpile... whoa, wait. Where did I get the word quantum. Sounds like human-words to me. I need to get more sleep...

28th Galena
SNATCHER!! Not 1, but 2! They were at the entrance to our fort when someone spotted them. I sent our military after them both, but they escaped both times. Our military needs some more training...

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x AUTUMN x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
P.S. - I edited the plans for the farms since last time, and have included a few rough sketches of the areas I've planned out.
Here's the bottom 3 farms. The stairs in the top right lead to base, and the square in the top left is part of the tower's underground section.
The channels will lead to downwards and away from the fort for fast and easy drainage of the farms.
Here's the floor above that, with the planned out irrigation and a room in the tower for someone important, like a noble or the dungeon master(if he ever gets here).
Here's the base of the tower, completely walled off and surrounded by channels that I plan to fill with water or even magma.
Here's the area I plan to use for food storage, and the stairs near the wall lead down to the farms. The far right I plan to be an animal pit leading down to butcher's workshops.
The butcher's shops. As everyone knows, miasma can't flow diagonally, so these prevent miasma flow.
had to reset my computer to outofbox because that asshole virus got safe mode too. Had to delete everything ;_; Not sure whether I should just pass it along or not...
I have no idea how to reverse anything it did. Thankfully it didn't touch the save so I could post it if you'd like.
not sure if !!crundle!!'s done...
I'll finish either tomorrow or Sunday, alright?
