Again I have to apologize for not having posted over the last weeks – my surface and cavern projects have kept me very busy over the last days – and it won´t get better over the holidays, I fear. I´ll try to post now and then, but can´t promise anything. I think, in January I´ll have more time to keep you updated.
Until then, or until I find time to post before January, I wish you all nice holidays, and a Happy New Year!
Or, to say it in D’ni:
Hahr rahm gah shoraht b’shemtee biv!
Sorry for not posting for so long – a lot going on in the last month, work on the surface, work in the caverns …
The rodents in Afelahn have spawned quickly – at first, there were one or two – now, I estimate their number about a dozen – and they are EVERYWHERE. Had to bring my empty books to Asheten mansion – they nibbled on them and destroyed three. I´ve instructed the expedition personnel to be careful when visiting Afelahn, so the “plague” doesn´t spread to other ages. We´ve set up mouse traps, but to no avail as of yet … it seems, they are too cautious (or too smart?) to get caught.
We´ve started work on various new ages – most of them are in a very early state of being surveyed, but maybe I can provide some information over the next days and weeks.
Dasharen has proven to be one of the most unstable ages we have access to. Earth quakes have happened a lot over the last weeks, and one time our team was barely able to leave the age without being hurt.
The council will decide tomorrow, if Dasharen will be deemed “unsafe” or not. B.P. is for it, while others are strongly against it… they say, there is so much to learn in this age, that the risks are worth it… I´m not so sure. Is anything worth risking anyones life?
