Dear El Presidente Bradas van Krugus and loyal minion Darkus Underlordas,
I've started a survey and asked our local villagers what they think about your glorious leadership, the steadily growing economy, the impenetrable defense system and our unmatched military forces. There are however some *ehem* minor disturbances among the villagers. For the sake of their own security their names remain unknown.
One person amongst the villagers demands more exploration expeditions to find new rich and yet untouched mineral fields around our village and beyond before somebody else claims to be the owner of that part of nature. For that and other tasks some villagers also suggested the creation of a detailled worldmap which shows the outer areas of the village, especially land areas (which are still a mystery to some).
Another villager made the outrageus claim that our work ethic has drifted into lazyness and isn't as productive as before when we started laying the first stones in the village. He wishes back the "golden days" of prosperity and productivity.
Some people pointed their index fingers at other people who in return also pointed their fingers at other people calling each other egoists who only care about themselves. I tried tracking down the scapegoat by counting which person got the most fingers pointed at him. The result? A sophisticated system of fingerpointing where every villager got the same number of "fingers points".
A different person is concerned about the lack of brick walls which shall protect our civilized citizens from barbaric forces, rapists, thieves, murderers and the likes. The same person demands personal plots which were promised to him and thousand others villagers by the government. A small riot broke out on the street with people wearing t-shirts on which was written: "They promised us houses but all i got was this lousy T-shirt". Thankfully the police acted quickly and arrested all the protesters.
On another street villagers gathered around to peacefuly support the government in their agenda to neglect personal plots and rather to focus on public projects first such as the brick walls and extending our village claim.
Thick broad double sided roads only Hitler could dream of! A brickwall that puts the chinese Great wall of China into shame! The overambitious goals of our leaders knows no bounds! What's next? A collosual statue of Kruger where our boats drive underneath its feets? If we put things into perspective we're about to create a village where three times the whole population of Haven&Hearth fits in!
There are rumors amongst the villagers that these wooden walls could be very well be made out of thin air! It is well-known to the Crossroads citizens and soon to the enemy that almost everyone owns a keyring. Once in the wrong hands, can you imagine what these ruthless people would do to our village?
Apparantly there is a clay problem. People jokingly suggested renaming the village Crossroads into Clayless. It is no longer a government secret that we lack high quality clay and desperately need to focus our efforts on finding new clay spots.
Not only our farmers but also the people who ate or rather not ate the crops noticed that the current soil quality doesn't meet the international food standards. It was proposed to move the farmer area to a field where higher soil quality exists. To deceive the international food comitee farmers were instructed by the government to colorize their crop by making apples look red and oranges orange.
I'm sure everyone remembers the famous government slogan which was aired 24 hours on all TV and radio stations leaving a permanent brain inprint behind by informing the local villagers to KEEP THE GATES CLOSED. Villagers suggested to expand the those with KEEP THE CRUCIBLES LIT and the GUT THE ANIMALS (Survival 10 at least) slogans.
Yours faithully and as always,
