My goal is simple: to set up colonies of a single production focus.  This will enable "mass production" and wholesale. 34 of Malin's Welcome, 1328: I have so far one partner, Lord_Lykos_Daekon. We explored north some ways, but found nothing but random forts of stone. The snow was nice, however.  Soon I plan to head west out of Dunwood, which seems to be fairly empty.  I hope to set up one experimental colony first, and gather buyers of supplies. 3rd of The Grand Harvest, 1329: What better way to start the new year than with some exploring?  I have done some preemptive exploration on my own.  The west seems to be a better direction to go.  I am close! 5th of Suns Smile, 1329: It seems south past Laurelin is a good direction. I will have to inform my partner, and ask his advice.  I believe I would prefer west, because it is close to home and Al'Khazar. Further investigation shows that any direction out of Dunwood is good. 21st of The Deep Cold, 1329: I am almost at the crossroads heading north of Dunwood.  That is where the colony will be.  I have not been able to contact Lykos.  I can manage without him.  Once the settlement is built, I will hire. After the first shipment I will distribute payments to them. EDIT: My drawings were accurate, and I have made it to the spot I found before.  It is far enough from everything and quite serene. 22nd of The Deep Cold, 1329:  The building of the colony is underway.  I have chosen to keep this spot.  A sign is placed for travellers to see.  For Mobeus! EDIT: The first house is now complete.  I will make a few more before hiring. UNKNOWN: I have lost track of the date, but the colony is complete.  There are 3 houses, a farm, storage room, and meeting hall.  I will now connect to the road to Lunavara, which it is near.  Then I will advertise it, in hopes of workers. I managed to contact Lykos, who said he would visit.  I have a good feeling. EDIT: The colony is now connected. Now I can begin hiring and producing wood.  The next task is to contact King Enor to try and get Oren rule and protection.  Mobeus shall flourish someday! 13th of The First Seed, 1331: Mobeus is doing well.  I am hiring and many have applied. I still need protection.  I have gotten threats from an unknown entity about killing anyone in Mobeus.  I wish to neutralize this threat, but not with force. My time away from my family's farm seems to be corrupting me.  I must prevent this.
