My first view as I approach my new serfdom if that of some rather random looking wall structures. And, interestingly, a giant hole in the ground. As I pear into it I notice that one can enter the fortress that way. Sortoff anyway. Weird.
Also a giant tower with no apparent use.

Complete the magma tower!

Below the farms is a floor that has no practical purpose, how ingenious. It even has a trading depot that cannot be reached. I say that is most amusing. I feel like smacking the dwarf who built that. We don't even need to do any hauling for the next caravan since the depot up top is already full.
I think mal did it.
I was planning on making the new entrance there but then decided not to with complications with the ramps...
didnt know if caravans could go down ramps that were next to each other ... if you get what i mean...

Next come the workshops, and a more inane setup I have never seen. We have six of everything. WHY?
incase we need to make many things incase we are buzy doing other things and dont have time to look back at the workshops.

Next up is the annexes of this god-forsaken place. The bookkeeper shows me a complete map. It includes a small cave in the middle of lava that reportedly has a previous ruler locked up in it called "Mal." Also way above the magma pipe is a cavern that has turning gears. Nothing else, just really long gears powered by water.
The turning gears would be used to power the many pumps which would then splurt magma out of 10zlvlz high tower.

Also mal deserved it!

Caravans can travel (3-wide) ramps like that. Most of my depots are quite close to my central staircase and I use ramps to let the caravan travel into a (secured) tunnel. Better to have the caravan do the hauling than my dwarves.

Nope, Kethas did that.

No I don't!
I didn't leave the fortress in shambles with half-completed projects everywhere...

Pull the levers!
The one who does shall drink from the river!

Although I probably should have designed it so if you don't pull the levers in the right order it floods the fortress...

Yes you do!
And it wasnt my fault, the magma tower would have been completed if it wasnt for that damn ug river...
the ug river is the only thing that made the fortress left in shambles.

Official Log of Fastler Oltarlelum, Champion Wrestler and present leader of the villige Nelasilral "Flickertreaty"

8th Obsidian, 304, Late Winter.

Because of the unexpected dissapearance of the last leader of this dinghole, I was rushed out before my alloted time. It was a terrible journey in the middle of the winter, but still. Fora rundown of the villages status, see the report I sent in before. The bookkeeper has now shown me his official record, and it does actually look rather promising:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The first thing that happened when I got here was a dwarf named "Momux," a mason, went insane, but the queit kind, so it doesn't really matter.
Evidently there is another dwarf by the name of "Kethas" who is actually the Mayor has recently claimed a workshop and is yelling for stuff we don't have. According to the bookkeeper what we don't have is tanned hides. The lazy sods here may or may not get around to slaughtering and tanning something.


10th Obsidian, 304, Late Winter.

A baby crocodile just knocked over a statue. Must do something about this.


11th Obsidian, 304, Late Winter.

Baby crocodile is dead, I also designated some walls to stop more wild animals frrom eggressing from the river.


22th Obsidian, 304, Late Winter.

I was innocently designating bedrooms when I discovered that we have over 100 doors ready to place. Seriosly people? I am going to find who is making these and tell them to stop now.


26th Obsidian, 304, Late Winter.

Kethas finished his must have artifact. It is a granite earing. How usefull. It is worth 34800 though. I include a description:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
(On a personall note, I think Kethas has a table Fetish, although his ability to engrave on an earing is impressive)

1st Granite, 305, Early Spring.

According to my calendar it is now spring, not that anything has actually changed. The ground is still covered in snow and the sasquatches still howl at the door.

I am sending this part of my log into the capitol now. I have a whole year left. GET ME OUT NOW!

I hear if you combine them with dwarven syrup you can make rhesus pieces.

There are no Kangaroos in Austria. Trust me.

Doors are good.  The doors are your friend.  Liberal application prevents accidents.  You must construct additional doors.
