From the Journal of Baron Lorn. 10th of Hematite.
Lovey and myself have been settling in quite nicely, despite our arrival being a trite disturbing at first.
Captain Ironblood was a little nervous that we would interfere overly in the running of the fortress, but I reassured him that we merely wish to represent the crown in legal and political proceedings.
The quarters he has allocated for us appear to have been well lived in. The Captain advises me that they belonged to our predecessors.
The sheets were still warm!
The Captain suggested it was the only warm thing about my predecessor, which, by my memory of Baron Dirty, I am inclined to agree with.
In any case, today saw the arrival of a human diplomat. I have had few dealings with the other races in my past, but I do look forward to the task. Even dealing with the Elves would be nice, despite our two races having a troubled history.
The interesting thing about Nist Akath is its sheer scope. For such a small town to have accomplished so much is a real feather in Ironblood's cap, no doubt. I'm not sure what he is doing so busily down in the crypt levels, but he tells me it's promoting full employment, which I can fully get behind. He also has prepared a tomb for both Lovey and myself. Marvellous organisational skills, that Dwarf. I must remember to send a commendation of him to the Queen.
