Forbidden Land

There's an elephant that killed so many guys that even the population gave him a name and title. But one of the dogs managed to knock him unconscious.
And just to make things worse, 16 more elephants showed up to support their friends!

The thing is... the elephants keep trying to leave the trap tunnel who is all triggered and not working properly anymore. And then some asshole walks in to recover a dead guy's underwear of whatever, and It pisses the elephants right the fuck off and they come charging back up the tunnel again.
I guess I should put a work order for more fucking coffins...

I keep saying these morons to stay inside, they keep going and try recover corpses!
Time for hard measures, I gave the order to stop fucking gathering EVERYTHING. But It doesn't matter what I tell these idiots, they keep going outside, determined to walk into their deaths.

Harsher fucking measures are necessary. I installed myself two doors in the entrance and locked them.
Nopony gets in or out! StoneHammer is closed until further notice!
This stopped the kill streak of the elephants for now as a temporary measure. Hopefully they will go away bored when figuring no more fucking toys are coming out to play with them. We lost 20 ponies to this debacle!

Of course... just to add insult to the injury, 17 lamias jumped out of the river. Luckily we didn't lose anypony except some dogs and cats.

Those fucking elephants, I hope they choke in the miasma from the bodies they killed!

Winter 1005
I've started the project F.T.W. (Fuck The World), top secret attempt to dig a tunnel and channels to the outside from the magma river.
I'll kill those elephants... I'll kill ALL those fucking elephants!

But I'm not sure if I'll have time to finish It. I've also started the personal project G.M.T.F.O.O.S.H. (Get Me The Fuck Out Of StoneHammer) and I hope I can finish this one by the end of the year.
I've found a guy that kinda looks like me, since all our cutie marks are covered by our pants, the only difference between us is our eye color.
When the time comes, I'll pass him a pouch of platinum coins saying he's me from that point on, then I'll slip out of elephant hellhole. Easy.

The elephants don't seem to leave! They love their tunnel smelling like rotten corpse. So, nopony can go outside yet.
But all the wood is outside, which means the carpenters don't have a lot to do and they are getting bored. But if I open the doors, everypony will run straight to the elephant tunnel! On the the other side, we have lots of free rooms since most of their previous occupants are now fucking dead. So, we don't need the carpenters for now anyway.

Did you ever had a feeling that It can't get much worse... and then It does but at a bigger scale?

For everypony's surprise... they found us. The fucking griffins found us at last! They must have gone through the south of Equestria to try attack the Crystal Mountainhomes from the other side.
And besides that, they found our fortress!

But do they think I'm scared of a little griffin siege?! I'm already trapped by four assassin elephants. Shit, I'm just hoping you griffin assholes manage to kill them, I'll give you a fucking prize!
The worst thing would be they open the door, causing a deadly carnage to our fort and the idiots I'm stuck with to run to the elephant tunnel again.

Apparently the pachyderms don't mind the griffins. They are like best friends!
The griffins are all confused by all this and decided to stand around by the tunnel and the channel. They lazily killed a cat that got stuck outside and just came back to the tunnel. I think they are starting their own town there... elephants and griffins living in peace and harmony, joined only by their endless hate for pony dwarves.

Spring 1006
Bad news.
The project Fuck The World has failed. I struck the river by accident, now the channel leading to the outside is now flooded.
To whoever comes next to this fucking overseer position, you may want to finish the project, you just have to make a new channel for the magma leading to the outside. Or build a military strong enough to destroy those griffins and elephants.
Me... I don't fucking care anymore...

See... spring has come. And I'm taking my chances to get out of here.
The poor sucker I said that looks like me, I've already talked with him and convinced him. Enough money and he went for It. The poor idiot will take my name, and by the time they figure out he's not me and just some moron, who can't run a fortress much less use a pickaxe, I'll be long gone.

New name, new town, new fortune...
Nothing is worth staying here.

I'm leaving this diary in the table of the overseer's office.
To whoever finds this journal,...

Good fucking luck to you.

PS: The place isn't a total loss. As long you don't open the damn front door! Just finish the project and flood the fucking outside with lava! It's all about protecting StoneHammer from the outside world!
