During the siege, Emerald's hidden farms were essential to maintaining the population of Flufs. The key to success was the lore campaign. Emerald and her collaborators successful convinced the world that the areas surrounding a long since dormant volcano is actually active and haunted. Using Unreal Engine 5, they were able to create such realistic "films" that people believed that the volcano has been erupting cyclically every 4 months completely wiping out all life within 15 miles. The dead from the prior eruption continue to feed off any living sole that attempts to enter and inspect the ruins. After trapping several Goblins and showing them a staged scene, they were able to engineer their escape in transit to prison and enable their eye witness accounts of soles being ripped from beasts and flows of lava washing over all life. This successfully lead to not a single goblin scout entering the area. They simply camped out for a week outside the zone and then reported claims of confirming those eye witness accounts back to satisfy their superiors.
All the while, Emerald and her team were able to enjoy 120 hectars of fertile land helping produce all the necessary foods to get the Flufs through the siege. There is a statue of Emerald in the hall of heroes along with a golden plaque telling her story.
