You can try putting them all on masonry duty to build coffins and slabs, and engrave and install them and entomb the dead before the dead increase the number of the dead by making the peasants dead.

Hm yes yes hmm yes indeed I agree Mr.Fib

The fort was getting too boring. I wanted to shake things up a bit, and probably leave an entertaining problem for my successor to deal with.

Dear Overseer,

We are equally surprised to be here. We suspect that you have been tampering with the laws of nature, and have somehow (looks in arcane, ropereed bound book) "Duplicated entries in the Raws" (stops reading) somehow. The book of arcane knowledge says that if you do that, unpredictable things can happen, and right now, we are just happy we aren't slugmen, or kittens, and that our wagon is not made out of frozen gloom.

Sadly, we can do nothing about this problem, nor can you do anything about it. The book warns that this can only be solved by the complete and utter destruction of such worlds, and the redaction of the perverse changes made, as once the world is generated with the "Twisted Raws", it can never be put right again.

We are terribly frightened, and dont really know what a "Duplicated raw entry" is, but by the sounds of it, the consequences are quite severe, and the bizarre nature of our condition seems to fit the description penned within the book's pages. We are mortified at the idea that we must be completely destroyed, and cannot be redeemed!

Can you not just choose to overlook our afflictions, and try to command us misfits anyway?

Huddled together from both fear and cold,
