By the gods! Swarms of flys are ravaging our food stocks, so I am getting our carpenters to mass-produce barrels to avoid further nonsense.
The wall is coming together nicely, now I have the bridges set up(as the gates). When set off by a lever, the bridges will pull themselves upwards, forming a wall that will protect our workers from crossbow bolts.(think drawbridges)
I hope to have that wall done by mid-summer.
The treasury is finished, and just in time too. We discovered glorious rubies, in the same area where we discovered sapphires as well!(I was having the miners carve out new rooms for the immigrants)
It appears our wood-cutters are bored, can't blame them, I haven't given them anything to cut down. So I mapped out a large area of forest to be cut down, hopefully our wood stocks will grow enough to last us in case of siege.
The Queen's quarters are almost finished, we are furnishing and smoothing them currently.
Whats this? A peasant, Lolor, has been very secretive as of late, and now she has taken over a craftdwarfs workshop!
We can only wonder what she might come out with...
Lolor has emerged after many days & nights with Ekastamid, an impressively crafted turtle shell chain! Lolor has claimed the title of legendary bone crafter with this artifact!
The human caravan arrived today, and the Queen herself honored them with her presence!
Hopefully they will have more to trade than the stupid elves.
Its harvest time! A great crop of sweet pods and a secondary crop of plump helmets came in today.
We will brew the sweet pods and store the plump helmets.
The humans did have some good trade items! And through some crafty trading I was able to get us 200 meatstuffs and 90 fishstuffs.
I also got us a cow cage, hopefully we can begin breeding cows for our own meats.
