Eighteen dwarves! With a total population of 53, Gemclod is now a notable location in our region. I order some of the migrants' draft animals slaughtered for a celebration. I will be reconfiguring our entire military in the coming days. Experienced soldiers will be promoted to Squad Captains, and given new recruits as trainees. My goal is to raise four four-dwarf squads.

More migrants have arrived. In the new Overseer's wisdom, he has assigned me an Underling! I was quick to appraise the new arrival ~~Cythereal~~ John Charity Spring of our tasks, as well as the dire importance that no pig tails be planted. I expect ~~him~~ her to follow orders faithfully as I am ~~his~~ her superior at Gemclod and ~~from my impressions of Vox Nihili I don't think he pays much attention to things which aren't of religious importance~~ our Overseer wisely delegates the detail work to those better suited to it than he.

A commotion erupted over the attempted attack of a giant flying cavedog on Boing and baby Penguingo. Could not have been true, since Boing is one of the lucky few to have avoided doing any work whatsoever since arriving at the fortress. Immediately dismissed it as rumor. Also curious as to whether farming could be done on an irrigated obsidian magma cap. Maybe get ~~Cythereal~~ John Charity Spring to test? Perhaps order to plant Armok-damned pig tails on that plot. If it fails, no pig tails and no ~~Cythereal~~ John Charity Spring . If it succeeds, Overseer becomes pleased at efficient use of space. Risk of dwarven ale and pig tail fiber socks balanced by possibility of being able to claim divine punishment for planting pig tails. Must consider plan further.
