From the Diary of Baron Lorn. 14th of Granite.
It had all been so lovely, with lovey and me, and now little Zasit.
But today I was faced with horrors!
First of all, I was walking by the butchers shop when I noticed the lady Xotes slicing off a kitten's head with a butchers knife.
I can't be sure, but I think the poor little thing was still alive at the time. I could have sworn I heard it mew!
I confronted her about it, and she said she was just working as Ironblood had deemed necessary.
I immediately went and expressed my concern to Ironblood about this, and his response was to show me a chart.
It showed dwarf population against cat population. I for one believe that the more cats, the better, but Ironblood appears to disagree.
I asked him if he liked cats at all. He told me 'of course he did, he was wearing two of them right now.'
Naturally, I could bear no more, and left immediately.
My second horror came when I discovered an Elf Noble had arrived and I was the one to meet him. Not that I have anything against Elves, you understand. I just wish I'd had some forewarning.
