[Worldmaster27]

Declare that the dragon is to be our god - we must worship it for at least one hour before we go to bed. The dragon is our protector. The dragon commands our lives. The dragon commands our souls!

Ignore the dragon for now - how far have we gotten on that palisade? Are there any non-hostile animals that have been seen?

[Worldmaster27]

I forget and I'm too lazy to check if it was mentioned - what kind of plants are we growing?

[Worldmaster27]

What's the possibility of brewing some of the sugar fruits into a kind of rum? Introducing alcohol could end badly but it may be useful, perhaps for trading with other survivors. By the way, do we have any farm tools and a way of making great amounts of controlled heat?

We should also send small scavenging parties into the fringes of any nearby woods to see if they can recover any sizable sticks to be made into spears.

[GiglameshDespair]

To be honest, we're kinda of stuck at the moment.
We need some kind of hard material to make tools. The pen knives were lost with the scouts. There's no useful materials like flint.

[SaberToothTiger]

Send scouts immedieately.

[Worldmaster27]

Prepared anyone who has trained with the spears to get ready and station on the outermost buildings. Whether or not we have trained, we will join them. Also gather anything of value that is community-owned, and pile it in an open location.
((This is your solution to our metal problem, I assume? I don't think we have much anything to trade, besides our food.))

[Worldmaster27]

"Forgive us, but we are, ah, newcomers to this land. I don't know your customs, but my name is [our name]. What's yours?"

[AoshimaMichio]

Ask about this obviously alien / past future trinket. And how the hell they managed to make a wagon. And why they are here. And what they know about this world. And mention that they shouldn't annoy our guardian dragon.

[Worldmaster27]

Invite him to see the scrap we've gathered, and see if he'd be willing to trade for tools. Also ask what he plans to do now. Subtly suggest that they could help us get on our feet, maybe even settle alongside us here so the journey isn't wasted. Try to learn more about their customs too, to avoid future incidents. Oh, and other settlements nearby.

[The Froggy Ninja]

Well we seem to have hit a point of diminishing returns so we may as well bring some new factors into play.

[AoshimaMichio]

Yeah, remove that translator thing, take a step back and explain situation to our team. Invite the newcomers stay for night, it's probably safer to leave on early morning.
Also tell our guys to not trust these guys at all if they return without me. Go along with newcomers. Carefully though, I don't like that grin.

More talking: Note the obvious tech level difference between the translating machine and this village, indicating existance of third party.
Also note how most animals seem to avoid the village, even before the dragon came. Wonder why.

[Worldmaster27]

Put some people in some buildings next to theirs if there aren't already to keep an eye on them to make sure they don't try to completely surprise kill us all in the night. We will go to sleep so we can timeskip be well rested for the journey.

[Worldmaster27]

bump?

[MikaTheCrazy]

Is the corpse of the bug-thing that attacked us earlier still around? Maybe we could break off it's proboscis to make a weapon.
