Matul Remrit - A Dwarf Fortress Tale

Whether its too complicated for people, the graphics too terrible or simply a lack of interest, most people seem to avoid Dwarf Fortress. However, even if you don't play it, you might find this "Lets Play" game a very interesting read. Also, the artist is an avid fan of GOMTV and plays Starcraft 2, and the writer is just kind of awesome.

I hope this isn't advertising because of my relation to the authors- rest assured, at this point they aren't making any kind of money. I'm simply hoping to open the peoples' eyes to something that they might have grown to love as I have. If this would be more appropriate for blogs (or inappropriate period) then I welcome the admins to judge its fate.

If said fate is to let this thread stand, I will post the weekly updates for all to read.

2nd Granite 1051
The wagon rolls. I travel with dregs silent from the massacre done upon us. Their dwarven tempers stew. There was tantrum over the elven commodities on board. I admit this flower stink wagon is a bane to my nostril hair. I do. There will be no wasted resource. I administered discipline before they could be given fire.

3rd Granite 1051
A quarrel happened when Dett informed me the mule corpse was alive. I bellowed at her: there are maggots. I bellowed again more polite: I am sorry I bellowed, there are maggots. She picked a plump squirmer out of the mule and put it in her mouth and swallowed and she said: I have maggots also. I will not quarrel with this one again.

5th Granite 1051
I awoke and the dead mule had left. Hyte handed me morning meat and morning ale. She was wearing brown fur. I inquired about the new armor and she said she has never known any mules. I asked Hyte with suspicion if she had fashioned the mule into a tunic and she glared at me in a way I did not like.

6th Granite 1051
A wheel shattered in the river fording. We recovered the wagon but there is no method of repair. I feel eyes watching us from the forest. I armed Squib with sword and mail. If the elves hunt us then this will be our last stand.



8th Granite 1051
I armed two dregs with picks and ordered the commodities to be moved underground. Mar quarreled the decision and questioned the claim I have to leadership. I puffed my chest and reminded with politeness my name had been brought up in the last round of Captain promotions. She did not seem convinced until Hyte looked at her with menace.



9th Granite 1051
While moving the commodities Behem ran to me with terror. She swore three horrific elf birds approached with talons and harsh cries. I ordered the dregs underground and Squib unsheathed her bronze blade to meet the foe with her war mutt. She slashed open their throats and stabbed the final bird through the skull meat. It was traumatizing to behold.



10th Granite 1051
After the elf attack, my order to build walls around the staircase leading underground was unquarreled. If the brothers live, this tower will be their beacon.



12th Granite 1051
The miners have begun to dig a living area beneath the storage room. Exi swore a decade of architecture experience and helmed the design. The other dregs are assigned to the construction aboveground.



14th Granite 1051
There has been demand for official positions. Mar quarreled for distribution of authority through work titles. I agreed with her ideas for more functioning and elected myself manager of work tasks, record keeper, and broker of funds. We celebrated the promotions with a barrel of rum and mule meat.

17th Granite 1051
Behem alerted me to a herd of elf beasts. They appear fuzzy and friendly. A trick to lure unassuming dwarves into their maws. I stationed Squib to watch for unscrupulous activity.



19th Granite 1051
To avoid mistakes in my broker of funds work I assigned Hyte to educate me on numbers. She lined up cats and gave a demonstration of numeric value. Then she asked for me to count the cats. I did so with correctness. She followed with locking one cat in a stranglehold for three minutes and asked me to count again.

22nd Granite 1051
The construction of the living area is complete. There was quarrel over room selection. I reminded I ordered with kindness the rooms to be built before my office. I followed with discipline administration until each dwarf felt their room was satisfactory to their needs.



25th Granite 1051
I feel that administrative work has been distributed with heaviness on me. I am dealing with substantial quarrel over what to name the tower. I called an anonymous vote and supervised the process. Behem suggested "Elfmurder" and Exi suggested "The Miserable Tower of Miserable Death."

27th Granite 1051
The construction of the walls is complete and the name voting has come to a close. After thorough discipline it was decided with unanimity for the tower to be called Bravemule. We will build this tower tall for all the brothers to see and return to us. Matul Remrit endures. Hail Bravemule.

1st Slate 1051
Elf spit! I am offered minutes to admire a creation before the next work order. I hollowed out the food hall and snoozed in bed and leader burst through the door and bellowed to dig work rooms. No gratitude for the careful craft placed in these structures.



2nd Slate 1051
The mule eats in the food hall. Oh that unscrupulous mule! It does not understand tables.

4th Slate 1051
Leader called the miners for a meeting to determine what is essential to Bravemule. Leader determined a prisoner room and then determined a medical room to keep prisoners alive for more time. I suggested holes with water around the tower for close water. Behem suggested we drown prisoners in the water. That is terrible.

6th Slate 1051
Fifteen sunrises have happened since Mittens went missing. Please Mittens I am alone without you. If I could fill my flask with your breath I would need ale no more.

8th Slate 1051
I hollowed squares for the work stations to be constructed. It is a unique design I call "Miserable Pits to Work In."



11th Slate 1051
Leader bellowed to hollow out the medical room sooner. I do not understand the bustle when no doctor brothers came with us but I do not question leader to his beard hair. I am hollowing the hall path and assigned Behem to start on the medical room to avoid discipline.

12th Slate 1051
The medical room was ruined! Behem hollowed it in an unscrupulous shape and called it an octogone. I explained to her squares are the art thus to aspire for that. I fixed the medical room but the octogone still haunts me.



13th Slate 1051
I moved furniture into office room for leader and moved locks onto my door to prevent further door bursting.



16th Slate 1051
Oh Mittens how your fur shined
Oh Mittens how your head purred
Oh Mittens how your feet landed (when hurled)
Oh Mittens where have you left
Oh Mittens do you miss me too
- "Ode to Mittens" by Exi the Poemhaver

19th Slate 1051
I complained about Squib at evening meat and Mar called me a dolt. She is a dolt! I would have butchered the elf birds but I was not looking because I listened to leader and went underground and I did not have a sword or a mutt.

23rd Slate 1051
Aboveground the dregs construct the tower floor. I placed scrutiny in the progress and it is constructed with the art thus I clapped at them.



25th Slate 1051
Behem suggested a method to recover Mittens. That is not terrible.



26th Slate 1051
The storage room is being hollowed to stack water thus the commodities were moved further underground. Once completed the water holes will be striking like cavern moss and people will hail Exi the Arthaver.



28th Slate 1051
The most rigorous month ends. With my pick I hollow the rebirth of Matul Remrit. I will build until the elves hear their screaming dead engraved in our walls.

1st Felsite 1051
After thirty-seven petitions leader has constructed the medical room. I have been promoted from animal butcher to chief medical dwarf. I celebrated with a barrel of rum and mule meat and to my flusterment everyone was occupied.



4th Felsite 1051
At evening meat Mar complained she is sore from work. I offered to look for problems at the medical room but she did not hear me three times.



6th Felsite 1051
Every morning I celebrate the death of the bastard Clure. To my delight I recall the elven blade slash her stomach meat open and the blood stack on the ground. It was greater than the slaughter of animals. However I miss the brothers.

7th Felsite 1051
Hyte told us that elf steeds pester our donkey and to beware their schemes. I do not feel she has authority to make us beware.



8th Felsite 1051
Mar moved commodities into the medical room. I have thread, crutches, splints, and buckets. However to my sadness there were no enormous corkscrews or serrated discs.

11th Felsite 1051
We put in work on the second floor of the tower. The militia commander will snooze there. I informed the other workers if they fall and break it would be to my happiness to give them more bones.



13th Felsite 1051
I am concerned for Mar. She has developed hand bumps and I informed her in my doctor opinion unless severed they will grow into elves and fall off. She asked: what sort of elves? I explained: the horrific kind.

14th Felsite 1051
I informed Exi it would be to my excitement to cut his face meat and transplant beard hair onto others who cannot grow beard hair without transplant. He left however I ate his unfinished mule meat.

18th Felsite 1051
Leader constructed a prisoner room across from the medical room and promoted Hyte to sheriff. I have not heard back from my petitions to revoke the title.



22nd Felsite 1051
I have begun a promotion for the medical room. The first patient will receive another limb.

23rd Felsite 1051
In my doctor opinion the other dregs must consume more ale than current for health and proper beard growth. I informed Hyte to enforce this and she stared at me menacingly. I submitted more petitions to revoke her title.

26th Felsite 1051
The militia commander stares off the tower at night and I asked with what was she occupied. She pointed and I looked and there was a monstrous elf in the woods! It was larger than the trees and terrifying to behold.



28th Felsite 1051
I submitted petitions for a butcher station. With more practice patients will come to the medical room to have problems looked for. Matul Remrit will thrive with my dedication to cutting and the brothers will find home here.

2nd Hematite 1051
Scheme solved. Office room is used for management with no connection to impending invasion. Leader is not a snake creature in dwarf skin.

4th Hematite 1051
Miners dug out a room behind the food hall. Mar moved commodities there from the storage room. All the commodities moved were food. Why? She moved seven barrels and stopped to drink ale after the third barrel and before the fourth barrel.



6th Hematite 1051
Mule does not respond to the skin of its brother which I wear. Taunted with "it is good to have brothers" and "I am the mule" but still it eats unconcerned.

8th Hematite 1051
Storage room was expanded but the commodities were moved to other rooms. When? Mar moved the food barrels not the others. Consider the involvement of accomplices. Must question expansion of storage room.



9th Hematite 1051
Spoke to friend Squib about possible schemes. She knew nothing but has been focused on the monstrous elf. Do not think she sees the unscrupulous connections which form around us.

11th Hematite 1051
Mar cut four trees and carried the wood to the work rooms. Must question purpose of the wood. Later she spoke to Dett. Possible accomplice? Did not hear the words but Mar seemed terrified.



14th Hematite 1051
Leader bellowed at me over complaints made from a dreg. Who? Suspect there is a scheme to revoke my title so unscrupulous connections will form. Mustered substantial menace to glare with.

17th Hematite 1051
There is a little mule! How? There is one mule parent. Possible elf scheme?

18th Hematite 1051
Worried about friend Squib. She did not laugh when I performed impersonations. Bludgeoned self in the head with a rock and called it the art. Then cried and made whale noises and blubbered about cats. No response.

20th Hematite 1051
Must question the unscrupulous birth of little mule. Observe little mule more when it is alone.



23rd Hematite 1051
Scheme solved. The wood is used to construct beds. Implications are terrifying.

24th Hematite 1051
There are more living rooms. Even counting animals the living rooms are too numerous and without purpose. Observed rooms but could not burst into room where Exi snoozes.



25th Hematite 1051
Mule is cunning. Told it of the refreshing ale in the prisoner room but it does not leave the food hall to consume. Must beware.

27th Hematite 1051
Second floor of Bravemule nears completion. Proud of the name. Friend Squib seemed pleased with the progress. Her safeness will come with schemes gone.

1st Malachite 1051
The architect came to me about lost gloves. I have not seen gloves and notified him so.

3rd Malachite 1051
The construction on the trade post is completed. Last night the leader was elected negotiator of commodities through fair voting. He was honorable to not bother my snooze for the process.



6th Malachite 1051
Seventeen sunrises.

7th Malachite 1051
An elf thief skulked the tower with dishonor. The mutt terrified it. I notified the sheriff so. The dregs have been made bewared.



9th Malachite 1051
I asked the sheriff to enforce worker silence when constructing Bravemule. She wondered how the workers would scream pain. I suggested hand signals.

10th Malachite 1051
The militia room is completed. I endured minutes of clapping from the architect.



12th Malachite 1051
For nights now the dishonorable mules climb the stairs to bother my focus. The mutt does not mind enough to terrify them. At least they do not speak. Twenty-three sunrises.

14th Malachite 1051
I dreamed the wagons collided. The passengers given fire released their arrows into the blaze into my meat into the trees or wilderness. When the trees returned the arrows my war heart bellowed. When the wilderness devoured me my stare deadened. I felt none of this because I fled.

20th Malachite 1051
There are dwarves on the distant horizon. After we begin to snooze the leader is holding a fair vote to determine if they are the brothers.



21st Malachite 1051
The determination is the dwarves might be the brothers. The miner suggested we stretch them to check for elves.

22nd Malachite 1051
Thirty-three sunrises. I do not see the monstrous elf still. If it attempts to ambush the dwarves I will slash its throat meat.

23rd Malachite 1051
The brothers return! There are celebrations. No brothers were killed or worse delivered to the medical room.



24th Malachite 1051
One of the returned brothers was a warrior of the arm. I offered her sword and mail with honor. She is too wounded for the militia and notified me so.

27th Malachite 1051
The warrior knelt before the leader to unite the brothers. Matul Remrit endures.

1st Galena 1051
The nefarious trees! Their retaliations escalate. I dodged an ancient chestnut where it toppled. Any tree that assaults I come next for their sapling. There are no innocents.

4th Galena 1051
They constructed a butcher room for the terrifying Dett. I do not understand the need for two.



7th Galena 1051
Today I lumbered six trees while I felt observed. Suspicious.

9th Galena 1051
The mules were moved to the mule container room. The terrible Behem suggested we butcher them. Repugnant! No harm will be done upon these valiant creatures.



11th Galena 1051
Misfortune! The ale and meat supplies diminished. There is no room to build food in. I quarreled with our impotent leader while the dregs have thirst.

15th Galena 1051
Our imprudent leader bellowed to lumber more trees while the wood burners kindle their forges. I hear their hammers ring while I deliver bundles. Ominous. What unspeakable inventions birth in their toil of fire and sweat?



16th Galena 1051
Today I helped dregs smooth walls. The dolt Exi engraved the image of cats all on them.

17th Galena 1051
I have begun a game. The docile trees that do not fuss are constructed into masterwork buckets. The savage trees that attempt murder are constructed into coal.

20th Galena 1051
Chaos! Today while lumbering trees I heard an elf bird attack the intimidating Hyte. From the distance the hero Squib ran in to butcher it. Traumatizing! I fled to the uproarious Bravemule where I discovered bedlam from a cunning ruse. The elves conspired with a thief to kill our ineffectual leader. It escaped while failing.



21st Galena 1051
The honorable Squib slew the elf thief! She returned with its head while the dregs celebrated. It is an ugly beardless creature. The ruthless Kou claimed its pig tail fiber socks while not caring.



23rd Galena 1051
Our meandering leader called a meeting where he bellowed if the militia does not recruit our rooms will be carved into octogones. The brave Hog took up sword and mail.

25th Galena 1051
I have annihilated the woodlands while the leaves whisper my name in hushed horror. I feel branches quiver while I pass. The trees sweat sap fearing the axe touch upon their bark. Adequate.

27th Galena 1051
The third floor nears completion. Its progress halts while we must drink water. It is dubious that more brothers live. A tall Bravemule will lure caravans.

1st Limestone 1051
Elf spit. I want elf spit over all this tower and would chortle. The bastard bellowed to plow a field. I am a hardened dreg. I never built a crop that was not murder. I told him I squeeze blood into a mug there is your ale.

2nd Limestone 1051
I have seen farms given fire it does not build crop. Drowning fire that murders the crop murders the fire therefrom I surmise drowning the seeds would unmurder the crop. The bastard did not quarrel this.

4th Limestone 1051
Exi tunneled to an aboveground pond thereupon he drowned the farm room. I told him there is a hole now for elves to flounce into the tower with. I told him it is not the art. I told him it is a furtive tunnel to cut our throat meat.



5th Limestone 1051
Exi blocked the hole with a pillar.

7th Limestone 1051
I slaughtered the dirt thereupon I hurled seeds and stacked water on top. I quarreled with the crop to grow. If they do not listen I will be fierce with them I will not care.



11th Limestone 1051
Behem is a fabler. I told her buried dwarves do not become dwarves therefrom I surmise buried seeds do not become crop. I told her to not meddle I have never murdered a commodity that was a crop.

13th Limestone 1051
The plump helmet spawn appears unwholesome.

15th Limestone 1051
A second room was drowned. A floodgate blocks the river thereupon a second floodgate blocks the stacked water from Bravemule. Two identical levers control them. Exi did not see the problem.



17th Limestone 1051
Tor complained the drowning vandals his fish work. He does not know how! I told him the turtle must fear for her safeness. I told him stare in her eye the left one until she freezes and shell sheds and her water walls become a prison room for the coming bedlam she surmises. I told him the turtle murdered his brothers inform it of this misgiving.

20th Limestone 1051
Those unscrupulous mules! Their clops buried the seeds into the dirt I cannot see them grow.

22nd Limestone 1051
Exi completed "Striking Water Holes to Drink Of." I told him it will not drown prisoners there is no water stacked in front of the door.



23rd Limestone 1051
The militia commander recruited to four. It is a terrible mistake to overlook a hardened dreg.

26rd Limestone 1051
I was fierce with the crop.

1st Sandstone 1051
In 238 a servant of Comnith Ad Comnith struggled with peace is foremost. The servant endured a massacre of their friends. Comnith Ad Comnith brewed ale for the servant and a town revered the wisdom of Comnith Ad Comnith.

2nd Sandstone 1051
I toiled to build the still. I received many wonders of its presence but there is no crop for brew. Kou spoke to tell me the crop grows almost more promptly than the trees. That sounds promising.



3rd Sandstone 1051
It would be exceptional if Yarm encrusted the gems for the deity. She spoke to tell me she worships another of the pantheon. I assured her it is well. Comnith Ad Comnith does not possess.

5th Sandstone 1051
I tried to brew quarry bushes. I will not do this again.



7th Sandstone 1051
If one gazes upon the chin of a dwarf where there is no beard, pluck hairs of the hoary marmot to present in peace. It is well to accept the unfortunate.

11th Sandstone 1051
The dregs worked to smooth the food hall. Ah the exceptional food hall! It is many wonders to gaze upon its squares. To sit to consume in its furniture is to feel peace of Comnith Ad Comnith.



13th Sandstone 1051
In 244 two brothers quarreled over the well. This quarrel needs to end the brothers spoke to tell Comnith Ad Comnith. Comnith Ad Comnith knows much but not all but peace is foremost. Comnith Ad Comnith put bears in the well.

14th Sandstone 1051
I awoke to visit the militia. They were malcontent with the water. I assured them it will be well. The crop grows almost more promptly than the trees. Sorc was comforted by this message.



17th Sandstone 1051
Logna spoke to tell me he built a statue of the deity. I do not understand. Comnith Ad Comnith is not an elf steed.

18th Sandstone 1051
Dimple cups also do not brew. I assured Kou there is no need to be fierce with the dimple cups.

20th Sandstone 1051
I can not leave the tower. I sat to be comforted in the food hall from despair. It is an exceptional food hall.



22nd Sandstone 1051
Be effectual. If a dwarf drowns floundering skull meat in the river, aid that dwarf in his task. Floundering is a hindrance to drowning.

26th Sandstone 1051
Frote works to train war mules for the militia. Their savage brays rattle bones of ancestors. Ah the unscrupulous mule! It understands war.



28th Sandstone 1051
In 237 Comnith Ad Comnith found the lost dwarf. The lost dwarf is starved and has thirst the lost dwarf spoke to tell Comnith Ad Comnith. Comnith Ad Comnith struck the lost dwarf for death and put the lost dwarf in the bushes.

1st Timber 1051
Clure delivered a sword bundle. I chose a blade iron and a burdened hilt. I am eager to train.

3rd Timber 1051
Trumpet waits on the stairs to get rubs for his head. There is a bray savage and loud if there are no rubs. He is cunning.



5th Timber 1051
I trained with the commander. I was ruined. There was no deceit involved. She did not speak words during the clash.

7th Timber 1051
Trumpet likes to hide in the armor stand to startle me. It does not fail. It is time to wear the tunic. There is no tunic here only the war mule! I gave him rock nuts from the secret rations for being the good mule.

10th Timber 1051
Timd permitted drink from the river. I do not trust the water holes. If I fell in the dregs would taunt and chortle.

12th Timber 1051
The commander awoke us frenzied. There are elves on the horizon monstrous and terrible. Our swords shine with sharp. The war animals stir. Bravemule will be their burial room.



13th Timber 1051
We clashed with an elf monstrous and dead. The commander severed its limbs into the air. Sorc dodged an arm. There was traumatizing involved. The other elf will be hunted after a sunrise.



14th Timber 1051
The elf tore out the throat meat of Trumpet! I clashed with the elf to slash its meat. I severed its head for atonement.

15th Timber 1051
Trumpet recovered. He is the good mule.



16th Timber 1051
We celebrated the victory with a barrel of water and rock nuts. Sorc praised the elf kill I achieved. I am not owed praise. Hog told me to not humble.

19th Timber 1051
I conspired with Hog to defeat the commander. The plan was to clash while she snoozed distracted and unarmed. We were ruined. She asked if we learned. I learned being ruined.

24th Timber 1051
Dwarven traders approach on the horizon. It is time to negotiate the commodities from their caravan. I am eager to raid.



25th Timber 1051
Leader bellowed to halt our swords. He ordered it reckless to begin war with a dwarven colony. The dregs are in uproar. Matul Remrit has gone without plunder for too many sunrises. The commander is malcontent.

26th Timber 1051
The caravan arrived. I have been stationed to watch for unscrupulous activity. A small amount and Bravemule will export death.

2nd Moonstone 1051
I contain hatred for the season of winter. The river froze. It means the turtles are all dead I wish but there is nothing to drink of until leader negotiates the commodities.

3rd Moonstone 1051
Three tens five. A tunnel of serrated discs. There is a plate to retrieve the disc but the disc is retrieved with speed. It severs the limbs.

4th Moonstone 1051
Exi does not stop his cretinous blubber. Mittens is not trapped in the walls. I will not skewer her during room hollow.

6th Moonstone 1051
I helped leader negotiate with the Dreadlion diplomat. I was ordered to strike the ice if the trade agreement was denied.



7th Moonstone 1051
The agreement demands mule meat imports offers stone flute exports. It offers enough stone flutes to be more than numbers. The diplomat demanded it. I do not know which dreg can craft stone flutes.

8th Moonstone 1051
I moved the trade commodities underground. No dregs helped until the ale was moved but it was consumed while I retrieved more commodities. It is a worthless dwarf that exploits labor.

11th Moonstone 1051
I have begun a construction with Exi. My suggestion was a pit to throw corpses in but Exi said a tomb would be the art. It is corpses. It is stacked meat gore bones in a container. It does not change with a noble container. It is still corpses.



13th Moonstone 1051
Three tens six. A burrow with furnaces. The prisoners put the wood in the furnaces. The wood is burned for coal.

16th Moonstone 1051
Frote trains a pack of war mutts for the militia commander. He has numerous animals. I suggested to butcher one to make its brothers quarrel over the meat but he said that is not how to train. It would work.



20th Moonstone 1051
Three tens seven. A mutt with a rope on it. The rope is tied to Bravemule. The mutt skewers elves.

22nd Moonstone 1051
I helped Exi stop his blubber. He named it Boots.



23rd Moonstone 1051
Construction on the burial room completed. I will not write the name. It is cretinous.

25th Moonstone 1051
Leader ordered permission to begin the construction of ideas alone. It means no architect scrutiny with the structure no soldier quarrel with the noise no management meddle with the pick. It will be efficient.

27th Moonstone 1051
The caravan left. The next will not.

1st Opal 1051
I had a spar with Hog. I bashed her with the shield for triumph. She complained it was unscrupulous because the shield is to block. I will not do it more. I hope she is not malcontent.

3rd Opal 1051
The workers build up. I bellow up the tower to terrify the workers. It sounds like many dwarves and reminds about leader. Skirn appreciates the echo trick.



7th Opal 1051
Clure constructed serrated discs. The edge could sever limbs because it is sharp. I hope it does not cause harm.

9th Opal 1051
Hog is malcontent more. I blocked her into the wall for triumph until she fainted. She complained the shield is to defend with. I promise I will learn the shield.

13th Opal 1051
The miners tunnel down. If miners tunnel down into workers that build up when does down meet up? Where does tunnel end? Where does tower begin? Where is ale stored? I do not know.



14th Opal 1051
I do not understand the shield.



16th Opal 1051
Yarm declared it is clear I have combat skill. I was comforted by this message.

19th Opal 1051
The militia waits. There are elf birds that come. I sharpened the shield. I will charge first for triumph.



20th Opal 1051
I have thirst. A dreg informed me there is no water. I will snooze soon.

21st Opal 1051
Hog does not speak to me. Her head meat stacks blood on me. I hope she is not malcontent.



22nd Opal 1051
The doctor informed me I am broken. Ale would fall out the wound and the water is frozen. She tried to stack the blood back in Hog. It came out more.

24th Opal 1051
The commander came to the medical room. The elf birds were slain for triumph after I fainted with Hog. I was promoted to captain with Skirn. I told it to Hog if she did not hear.

25th Opal 1051
I do not like how Trumpet stares. I do not have rock nuts for Trumpet.

26th Opal 1051
Hog still does not speak to me. I threw a rock at her. I have thirst. I hope I awake and winter has left.

1st Granite 1052
Region one sanction three: no illicit drink in region one. I separated elf beast to region two for multiple violation.

4th Granite 1052
The deer is magnificent creature. I should reward deer creature so elf beast can look and think what a horrible elf beast I am to violate the sanctions I should be more like deer creature to get reward and not fluster Timd.



5th Granite 1052
The miners breached deep caverns. I became worried if there is deep cavern creature.



6th Granite 1052
I snoozed with deer creature on region one grass. If dreg snoozed on grass it would think what magnificent sky fires at night I should snooze on grass and not on bed.

8th Granite 1052
Hyte inquired on region status. I reported elf beast is troublesome. Elf beast is responsible for multiple violation with illicit wandering and illicit noise and illicit staring at me when I snooze.

10th Granite 1052
I detected illicit wandering in region one. I fired warning shot to return elf beast to region two. The bolt pierced elf beast meat. Elf beast can think my blood falls out I should follow sanctions to avoid more blood that falls out. That is what elf beast would think if elf beast would think.



13th Granite 1052
Tor inquired on turtle status. I reported no violation. Turtle creature thrives in region one pond so no harm is done upon turtle creature from horrible elf beast. He was thankful. There are no troubles separating turtle creature for Tor.

14th Granite 1052
I detected illicit wandering and illicit drink in region one. I returned groundhog creature to region two. I did not fire warning shot. I warned groundhog creature return to region two or dirt holes will become illicit. Groundhog creature likes dirt holes.



17th Granite 1052
Region two sanction six: no illicit startling Timd when Timd eats food in region two.

18th Granite 1052
I gave head rubs reward to deer creature. The deer is magnificent creature.

21st Granite 1052
I detected illicit wandering in region one. I did not have bolts to fire warning shot at elf beast. I became flustered.



22nd Granite 1052
Region one sanction four: no illicit rotting in region one.

23rd Granite 1052
I delivered elf beast meat to Dett for butching. She informed me she would look for problems. I reported problem is there is elf beast somewhere that is unpunished and violating sanctions and uncaring how flustered I become.

28th Granite 1052
I detected illicit wandering in region two. I reported to Hyte. They are not brothers.

1st Slate 1052
I am certain I declared to leader to raid the Dreadlion caravan in Timber in 1051. It is imaginable there would be no clods polluting Bravemule as perhaps dwarf colonies do not send migrants to a tower having murder bandits. Perhaps I am a dolt who is wrong.

2nd Slate 1052
Leader called a meeting to determine how to handle clods. The dregs uproared to drown them in the water holes. It could solve the problems. I do not know. I must know nothing at all about determinations.

3rd Slate 1052
Leader determined the clods be moved down to the burrow to not have to look upon them.



4th Slate 1052
Behem complains she has not completed burrow construction. Bravemule is with prisoners and without a completed burrow to keep them. It is clear I should plan for nonsense to occur at all times.



5th Slate 1052
There are less walls with opals. I fear the gems become scarce. I cut each opal as a crucial treasure.

7th Slate 1052
It is terrible on me to hear the clod noise beneath us. Oh we are miserable the clods blubber! Oh we are oppressed! There is no appreciation for the burrow we allow them to snooze in or the murder not done upon them.

10th Slate 1052
I encrusted a stone flute with opals in the holes for export. Perhaps Dreadlion will regret sending migrants when all their stone flutes have gem corks. I am cunning.

11th Slate 1052
The furnaces were moved down to the burrow to allow labors for the clods. It is good on me to no longer hear the furnaces.



18th Slate 1052
I do not know if the trap tunnel beneath the burrow keeps the clods out of the deep caverns. Perhaps clods are dolts who know nothing at all about traps that sever the limbs. Oh the worthless clod! It does not understand serrated discs.



21st Slate 1052
There are no walls with opals. The miners explained leader ordered to hollow the deep caverns. It is terrible on me to go to the deep caverns to snatch gems.

22nd Slate 1052
I loathe each clod. It is clear their purpose is to pollute Bravemule with coward nonsense. Oh we are clods! Oh we could never war! How worthless we are! Oh what is a raid we are clods who know nothing at all!

23rd Slate 1052
I snatched opals from the deep caverns. I fear each alcove with webs. It is imaginable there are terrible presences who wait in the dark.



24th Slate 1052
I cut the opals. It is not the same. There is less pride to snatch gems from a wall than a caravan. Walls do not scream and die. Red opals are the more crucial treasure.

25th Slate 1052
The nonsense happens for too many sunrises. Perhaps the clods will regret their presence when I am terrible on them. I am sinister.

2nd Felsite 1052
Terror dreams haunt me. Horrible elf steeds with bloat muscles and razor clops. Chewed me with rock teeth and swallowed me all.

6th Felsite 1052
Miners hollowed a deep cavern path. Miners left rocks scattered. Felt approval for the creation to be had.



7th Felsite 1052
Sun rises sun falls. I carve all rocks into flutes. I toss all flutes into bins. It is work. Masterpiece forms when I snooze. Horrible perfection.

9th Felsite 1052
Looked at a clod. Day ruined.

11th Felsite 1052
Moved beds into the burrow. It is clods that would whimper a rock floor is not comfortable. It is clods that are not war hardened. Beds were not earned.



13th Felsite 1052
Felt approval for Clure. She shapes all metal into weapons. Does she know the urge to create horrible elf steeds?

16th Felsite 1052
Moved a well into the burrow. Draws water from the deep caverns. Clods whimpered they must drink to survive. Grotesque demands. Felt scorn for clods that do not know they are horrible burdens.



17th Felsite 1052
Suffered a terror dream. Rigid ears heard all words. Swollen eyes saw all movement. Tail swished. It is not known for what purpose the elf steed swished the tail.

20th Felsite 1052
Exi created a trade post ceiling to ignore the sun. Felt approval for the creation. Named "Careful Square to Negotiate Commodities Under."



22nd Felsite 1052
Behem requested for a rock lever. Do not know who told her I carve rocks. It is Behem who created the horrible burrow. Pull her levers and murder happens. No creations for Behem.

23rd Felsite 1052
Discovered gold ore in the deep caverns. Told Clure gold ore can be shaped into horrible vermin statues.



24th Felsite 1052
Terror dream. Elf steeds emerged from octogones. Grotesque whinnies echoed down all tunnels and rattled my bones. Horrible whinnies.

26th Felsite 1052
Must carve masterpiece. Must shape the rigid ears and bloat muscles from terror dreams. Must carve statues for the elf steeds. Must carve name into statues for the elf steeds to know.

27th Felsite 1052
Masterpiece created. Horrible perfection.
