-OOC note: you’re not likely to get very many screenshots or accurate dates, I’m playing on a mac and the mac version of the game is irritating and covers up a lot of important information as well as having a tiny screen. If anyone knows how to fix this, that would be much appreciated.-

Well if this isn’t an interesting turn of events. I was informed earlier today that I am to take over the fortress after Asmoth decided he did not want to maintain constant control over everything. Well, great. This means I actually have to do things.
Oh, and did I mention I can’t see anything? I had to conscript one of the migrants to tell me what the hell is going on in this place. Dwarves are skilled at finding their way underground even without their vision, but since half of this place is aboveground I have no idea what to do.
So, from what this guy is reading to me, it sounds like we have a lot of jobs that aren’t getting done right now. Great. How on earth am I supposed to accomplish my own plans if I can’t even get anyone to drag themselves away from their jobs to do other things.

Another idiot got himself hit with the goo outside, meaning they’re probably going to be blind. Sucks to suck.

I was informed today that a cloud of “infernal dust” had drifted nearby. I don’t think any of us want to know what that is, but as long as it doesn’t approach us there shouldn’t be a problem.

Today, I learned that the idiot ranger made a full recovery and did not, in fact, suffer any injury due to his exposure. That’s… odd. I’ll have to keep an eye on him.

Senshuken came in from training to inform me that migrants have arrived today. 30 of them, as it turns out, bringing our population from 16 to 46. I yelled at a few of the useless ones, especially the fisher dwarves, to join Senshuken in training outside, but I’m really not sure what to do with so many. One of them, a cheese maker who introduced herself simply as “The Cheese Maker” (thinks she’s so clever, but she’s not) apparently was the one who led them here. Hell if I know why the dumbfucks wanted to come to the buttcrack of nowhere, but…

Some more idiots have gotten themselves hit by the goo collecting wood. Why the previous overseers saw fit to cut down trees in that godforsaken biome is beyond me, but…

Well, that fool Asmoth turned over control of this place to me. All the better to advance the goals of the -the next word or words are burned into unreadability- . I have begun drafting the plans for the network, to be finished within the next week. The time has come.

The plans have been laid out. All that remains now is for them to be carried out. Well, and a whole bunch of -the next few lines are burned- but that can be dealt with at a later date.

Work has begun on the initial stages of the project.

Today I ordered the fortress masons to produce a large number of rock blocks for the project. Obviously they weren’t told what the blocks were for, but I need them worked on and I need them relatively soon.

The first stages of the network have been completed, and some work has been done on the lower levels as well. I have personally moved a small amount of goods to the network: even if our blind bookkeeper notices, a few logs will hardly go amiss amongst the many hundreds we have available.
Trying to contrast the public announcements of occurances with the actual events, and also playing with having a different public and private persona.
