Arctic Hellhole

Melek - Year 201

This is the stuff of legends! Me a humble woodcutter one of the few to make the trip to forge a new mountain home!


Trip Day 1

There are 6 others on the trip, they seem amiable folk. The wagons are filled with all sorts of goods... ENDLESS barrels of food and drink, enough for over a year! I'm not even sure how this many barrels could be fit into one wagon but somehow it was been done.


Trip Day 4

I've made some fast friends already, and we're making excellent progress. Perhaps I should have looked to see where in the world we are to settle but this is too great to have second thoughts at the last minute!

Our number include a skilled mason, two sturdy miners who are clearly the muscle of any dwarf city! A planter who I will help with the farming when needed as I know a little of farming. A carpenter and a mechanic.

Trip Day 17

You've been heading north for so long it's starting to get cooler. No matter, we must press on.


Trip Day ??

I've lost track of the endless days, we make camp for the night and just as I think we've arrived we move on.


Trip Day ???

We've reached a vast Glacier and our leader has chosen to go straight through. Surely we could go around! We've travelled for so many days what would a few more matter?


Trip Day ???

We've stopped and started unloading. All I can see through the blizzard is ice and snow. I hear the distant sound of creatures lurking beyond the storm. Our miners have started to dig down into the ice... our leader has ordered the barrels unloaded and placed near the slope the miners are digging.

We must be having a brief rest! Yes, that's it. We're just going to have a couple of days rest underground while we recoup our strength. Yes.

This is not a break. This is not a breif stop to recoup. This is my worst nightmare. I am a woodcutter, like my farther and his farther before him. I live for trees! Some dwarves make fun of me and call be an elf for liking trees... but it's a core of my being! There are NO FUCKING TREES HERE!


It doesn't take long for our miners to big out the halls and rooms we need to settle down. I feel left out of the entire plan. There is no water, no farming, no live stock but our leader has the plan. No one knows what this plan is though.
