The Hermit - Year 32, Summer
14th Hematite, 32.I've finally dug out the room, made all the coffins, and buried the animals. The elves are still wandering around outside, seemingly looking for me. I doubt they have the ability to get through a locked bone door though so I'll be fine.
The burial room with some elves in the background. I wasn't actually able to bury the animals since they weren't technically pets, but I dumped their skeletons in there.
I've had a brilliant idea! Once I've made my small entrance room above the cave, I'll place the nith cage in it and hook it up to a lever so the next time any elves come either the elves will kill the niths and my nith problem is solved, or the niths will kill the elves and my elf problem is solved. Or even better, the elves might kill the niths, but take heavy casualties and run away!
20th Hematite, 32.I've been faced with a significant problem. There's no source of water or brewable plants in my cave and the elves are still outside. I did make that set of bronze armor, and I've realized that there's a legendary deep bronze long sword here that I don't remember getting, but I really don't know if it'll be enough against 13 archers with mithril arrows. My alternative is to try and go down to the caverns, but I've been hearing some horrific sounds down there and know from past experiences that there are some really bad things down there. I suppose I can make a shield while I decide.

So it turns out the only way I could make a shield would be to process the raw ores then smelt them and forge a shield, and I probably don't have enough fuel or time for that so I've decided to get my armor on and head to the caverns. Most of the things down there can't get through bronze, I'm pretty sure.
6th Malachite, 32.I was able to go down to the caverns and drink some water from a very nearby pool. However, there were some horrific, lanky, zombielike things that interrupted me. However this legendary sword just cut right through them and they never got a chance to even try to hit me. It's still quite disgusting though as they had disgusting grey blood and they bled a lot. At least the caverns are probably safe for a while.
The site of the battle. The L's are corpses and the grey is their weird blood.
It seems the elves have finally left! It'll be so much faster drinking water from a nearby pond rather than going down the long trip to the caverns every time. In other news for the last month I've been busy preparing another way to solve two problems at once by placing the elven prisoner cages into the caverns. I'll try to link them up soon so if any big threats come in I can unleash the elves on them.
