Stone tongue.
« on: September 30, 2008, 06:13:44 am »
So I've got this weird stone extension into the soil. It looks rather odd to have and I've never had anything alike. Or I didn't notice.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
On the northern side the stone from which it sprung goes on almost horizontal to then go to the edge of the map (very nearby). So do you guys think DF is trying to send me a message? Or is this just randomness from some RNG? Do I dig down? Do I fear it? Do I make it a sacrificial spot dedicated to Armok?

Landmarks are awesome.  Make it the central attraction of your fort, and by all means dig into it (but make the entrance nice).

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.
