If any be unfamiliar with the Tunnel project,
it is to drive a tunnel straight throught to the Black hole mine thus cutting out the long dangerous
run we have had te use so far.
An' another smaller project te connect the Cameo pit wit the the upper buildings fer ease o' access te the flats
below.

Tunnel project update Meeting

Four options where brought up for the site fer the tunnel te the black hole mine,they arr as follows
1 The mine tunnel starting outside our walls into the mountain behind the teleporter.
2 starting in the dark ally behind the Guard room.
3 starting in the Scoria mine from the elevator room.
4 staring from the orc hog pens in the Scoria mine.


The good points and bad of each were talked about and the first option won by a unanimous
favour of the citizens present as this option is the most cost effective and security minded fer us all .
They site for the access tunnel fer the flats woz also discussed an' will soon be finalised.

I would also like te point out that the final option will be decided by the Don after we have sumitted all the
the good and bad points an' these has been considered .

[Ufedhin]

Ufedhin mumbles an' mutters shaking his head as he attaches the latest parchments to the board ,then he shrugs and carries on as normal.

I will out lay me plan fer the mine tunnel now if any Galmarian has any question please send me a parchment.

The option te run wit' be the one outside the gates,it has found popular appeal wit' all.
The mine tunnel shall be constructed in stages maken resource gathering easyer an' less
o' a moutain te climb (much will be needed).
The Tunnel itself will be o' a simple straight forward design,but very practical.
The width an' height will be at 3 dwarf lenghts giving the room fer 2 laden miners te pass
an' plenty o' head room fer tall folks wot use the tunnel.
The tunnel shall be lit by luminous mushrooms eliminating the need fer oils or torches te be
replaced/refueled.
The tunnel floor shall be smooth paved stone without obstructions in yer way allowing a easyer journey
while carr'en heavy loads.
The walls an' roof shall remain rough stone as this be a mining tunnel na' a residence hall,it will
however be proped with good Galmair bricks in the ancient dwarven method tested by time(here his handwriting
seems to pause causing an ink blot)
The Tunnel entrance will be lit with either side wit touches fer ease o' night time miners .
Also a work site at the Tunnels mouth shall be in an area that will call minimum disruption,
te the towns daily business,an as an alchemist wot values the Eldan oak and it small forest patch
i will ensure its saftey aswell.

[Juniper Onyx]

What a wonderful project!!!

There is such a need for a safe way to obtain coal by those who cannot fight!

I would be happy to complete the order for cut stones for this! I'll let you know very soon when they are completed. Thank you for organizing this!

~Bernie

[Juniper Onyx]

After one day of mining, I already have 500 cut blocks for you. I expect to have many more by the end of the month if this keeps up.

Last evening, I was stopped by a rude dwarven smith, who wouldn't let me continue mining and chased me back to town!

Do you have any suggestions for dealing with ruffians like this? I must mine to earn money, and the Tunnel will help, but we could use more warriors or protections to the other mine too!

Thank you sir!

[Ufedhin]

Thank all who took part in the recent Tunnel dig, we have made great progress
i thank all of ye on behalf of Galmair.
