Thanks to some foreign aid, I managed to fix the problem with our fortress. After much bumbling and frustration, we finally hit the jackpot, and the dwarves swarmed into The Great Hall to catch up on a months' worth of food and drink they had been deprived of.



Unfortunately for the fine architects of Spoonproblems, I went on to become slightly overconfident. With a grand idea of expansion in my head, I was going create a even greater hall as compensation for the home wreckage they had received. Unfortunately it was not to be, mostly because the only method of 'making rooms' I could find was by placing down stairs. Lots of stairs.



And I know not how to delete them nor where they lead so we'll pretend that there is no large tumour sticking out of the bottom of the Great Hall. You mean great Hall is as it was before my leadership? Yes, that it better. (It isn't. it's ugly as hell)

ANYWAY. We received a new wave of migrants, including characters such as Del Murder, Yeargdribble, RSL and Guardian XIII. The problem was (there's always a smurfing problem) that they were cut off by a river. However, I finally clicked into gear and DID SOMETHING RIGHT!



I built a bridge!

They were pretty quick unlike the previous lot to integrate so that's good. Rather humorously, Shion stayed at the Wonder Square district for so long she actually turned insane. And I mean completely smurfing batty. I had a picture of her chasing a Capybara around the map but I foolishly overwrote it by accident. I would send Doctor Quin's lazy arse but apparently she's 'berserk' so I think it's best we leave her down there until she attacks some migrants and we have reason to take military action.

Our military action involving sending our two only soldiers at her, of course. I would invest in training but we probably won't need them any time soon. Next ruler can deal with it.

Also, MILF HAD A BABY!



He's called NorthernchaosGod and I'm sure he's having a great time in our sweaty, overcrowded mess of a fortress.

So Autumn has almost come and the dwarves are actually getting back on their feet. The infrastructure is generally okay and our population is growing. Perhaps they will live to the end of my year after all.

Unless .... nah, it will never happen.

Will it?

It can't be ...

Goblin Ambush.



And if you think those five are all that arrived, you're dead wrong. God save us all.

Part two coming later.
