12th Granite, 153Another crocodile emerged today, this time out of the flooded cavern layer, none of the stonefall traps worked on it (But I have a feeling it managed to find a way around them). Fortunately the militia were on-hand to take care of it, I'm getting quite proud of these guys.
22nd Granite, 153You know, when I first came here I thought I wasn't going to survive this Winter, I thought the whole fort would buy it before we could see the first crops of Spring. But I guess I was wrong, this place could really surv-

That...I can't even pronounce that name!
SEND IN THE MILITIA! WALL OFF THE CAVERN!
Oh, and some migrants just arrived.
Great, the beast has managed to crawl up to the lower crypt and I get the feeling it's about to start breaking stuff.
But wait! One of our best mechanics has distracted it and now he's getting gassed! Quickly, SEND IN THE MILITIA!
Oh CARP!20th Slate, 153It's laughing at me, I just know it is.
I sent the whole militia down there and it slaughtered them in seconds, I've decided there can only be one way to fix this now. Only one way left to kill it. But only I know how to work the necessary tools.



16th Felsite, 153, diary of Olin Rosatvabok, MayorThe old Overseer's unconscious, probably dying, the old fool. He channeled out the ground he was standing on, he killed the beast but he went down with it. Our chief medical dwarf is working on fixing him (Along with any other wounded from this latest attack).

Apart from that, we're busy trying to get some new stuff done. Some tetrahedrite ore is being smelted downstairs, and until we can get someone who is at least a half-decent miner we'll only be putting out a small amount of copper (And, hopefully, silver) for now.
An elven caravan just arrived, I'm tempted to seize all of their goods straight away but we don't have the training or weapons to fight them off if they resist. I'll trade with them for now, but I won't enjoy it. Hm, I can hear shouts coming from upstairs, I'd better check it out.

He walked straight in to one of our cage traps, and now I've got an ide-
Oh, another one just popped in to the third cage trap. Those two must be the unluckiest pair of snatchers I've ever seen.
28th Hematite, 153, diary of Olin Rosatvabok, MayorNothing much has happened lately, the Overseer's still recovering, though I don't see how his broken bones are gonna heal. I'm thinking I should probably just lock the door to his room and clean it out in a few months.
It's been a good harvest this season, plenty of plump helmets plus we're still cooking the meat from that last forgotten beast.
The militia fought off a naked mole incursion today, too. I don't think they're done coming through yet but Sibrek and the wrestlers should be okay to kill them if they do.
Last note before I end this entry: The prisoners are still at the entrance to the fort, I'm looking in to building a combat arena so we can watch the goblins get murdered by the crocodile who ravaged us last Winter. Should be fun.
