Congrats on surviving..... I'm back to the forge to make better and more armour.
In between bouts of grieving. Lorbam was your dwarf's nephew, and unlike Inod's, he y'know. Actually lived here.
Before i make my next journal entry, would it be possible for ya to send me screenshots of Multi and his wife's Relationships?
Evidently Multi's only ever associated with two human bards and his family for any length of time, a 50 year old man named Tunul, and a 55 year old man named Sidaya who based on thier dreams wanted to be a warrior poet and an explorer respectively. None of multi's (rather large) extended family is house either. Should be noted counting Kadol, the son he's had here, he and Lokum have four kids, though only one here.
In stark contrast, Lokum's got an uncle and two cousins on site as well as an equally large extended family off it, and has associated predominantly with human bards (including Sidaya,) as well as the elf bard I intend to make a sergeant when she applies for citizenship, Duto. She also knows the fort's legendary chef Olon Urnjewel (who is also Kaos' husband,) and one of the two legendary carpenters, Adil Stonebasement.
Nobody has actual in-game friends besides the founders, and the above mentioned people are only passing acquaintances, but for narrative purposes that may as well be friends, since the sheer volume of shit that needs to be carted around and constant craft good output needs to buy out all the metal, clay, glass, and drink on the human and dwarven caravans are functionally preventing any relationship cultivation.
Didn't get screenshots because seriously, the two of them both have absolutely monstrously sized extended families. Multi alone has near 80 family members among all the cousins, uncles, aunts, and nephews, as well as 9 siblings (he's the third oldest after two older sisters and four younger brothers and two younger sisters,) all four grandparents on both sides, plus his own folks. his wife has 61 and is third youngest after four brothers and two sisters, with two younger sisters behind her in family line.
EDIT: I trust nobody cares if we refer to our Fortress Guard as Judges and have it led by a dwarf named Dredd.
