Cadem Adorezephry: Eagle Tamer
« on: December 03, 2010, 11:05:43 pm »

This morning after engraving my newly finished dinning haul, I noticed a few "U" 's in the engravings and went to take a look:
And HOLY CRAP!
Quote
Engraved on the wall is a superiorly designed image of Cadem Adorezephry the human and giant eagles.
Cadem Adorezphry is surrounded by the giant eagles. The artworks relates to the Taming of the giant eagles of
the Cross Towers by the Human Cadem Adorezphry in 316 during the Seventh Journey of the human Cadem Adorezphry

Apparently there is human out there who TAMES GIANT EAGLES. Not only that but this was on his SEVENTH trip, WTF did he do on the other six? Tame some carp and unicorns???

I have examined other decorations and started finding other things referencing Cadem Adorezphry.  I want to copy this and go into legends and find out just how epic this guy is.

Yea, I've had those before. I always wonderd what did they do? I mean I have had a guy tame X at Y, then visited Y as a Z, and found I was attacked by plenty of X, before slaying them, and selling there skins to other Z, close to Y.

I got a lot of these in one fort in-particular but not in other forts. I wonder what the factor is for whether your dwarves engrave these happenings.

My current fort is mostly engravings of humans vs elves.

The event existing in the world is required I'm suer  :P Beyond that, preferences perhaps?

A man would see that as a difficult challenge.
An elf would see that and despair.
A dwarf would see that and say, "Bring it on."

They are more likely to recount nearby legend, so this Eagle tamer of yours was probably a local guy. You could be living next door to a crazy guy who tames eagles and rides them around while shouting 'DON'T EAT THE RED FLOWERS!!'

It could be a local thing, I just found out the place where my Fortress is is in the "Cross Towers"

EDIT:
Well holy Carp, Some human traders just showed up and they have... Drum roll... TAME GIANT EAGLES.  Two of them in cages.

Told you, you have a mad eagle man on the other side of that hill! Every Tuesday he goes shopping for lead goblets.
