Chapter One-Hundred Sixty-One

Rhonda is the first out of the slime, probably because she’s the least injured of the three.  It’s hard to tell exactly how hurt Rezlar is, but I’d bet Freddie will be out last, thanks t...

Chapter One-Hundred Sixty

Rezlar is clearly doing his level best to not panic, and I’d say he’s doing a pretty good job of it, all things considered.  The confidence of the others probably helps, as do the few smal...

Another day, another set of delvers.  Today’s set is starting early… and they don’t look much like my typical delvers.  Most of them come in with some variety of armor, or at least ...

Just because there’s technically no snow on the ground right this moment, doesn’t mean it’s not cold outside.  Early delvers are pretty sparse, mostly just the miners with their escort h...

In hindsight, in my eagerness to get an enclave and so a project to keep me busy, I may have forgotten that an expansion gets me more than just a bigger sandbox.  I blame how long it’s been ...

So, I’m looking at the map for the stuff beyond my borders, above and below the ground, and… I think I have my timescales messed up.  Below the surface, I was expecting to be tripping over...

The next couple days see a sharp increase in delvers.  I think it’s a bit of a combination of them wanting to get in some more quality delving before winter really sets in, and of Rezlar’s...
