I don't really know what happened. Both parts of it were completely full with 7/7 water and then it rapidly lost water and is now down to 1/7 and 2/7 on one side with random bits of ground showing up.

By any chance did you cause one of the brook tiles to cave-in (e.g. by channeling out the 4 tiles adjacent to it)? Use [k] to examine the floor of the brook - if any tiles identify themselves as "muddy brook", then you've encountered this bug:

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.

It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.

It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

That'd make sense, then. I probably have.
