If I'm reading that right, that's worth over twelve billion Urists.

Prepare for epic migrant waves.
The Queen came.

I'd imagine she might have. ;)

The same necromancer queen, Thob Plankfurnace, who's ascension to power (in year 1, she moves fast) is depicted on the door?  I can see why she came, she wanted it as the door to her bedchamber.  Especially since the door also heavily features Strildo Violentstabbed the Squeezing Axe, a bronze colossus with quite possibly the best name ever.

I'm going to do the smart thing here and disengage. This isn't a hill I paticularly care to die on.

Ol' Strildo seems to have some kind of beef with the humans, by the way.

Certainly you could argue that DF is a lot like The Sims, only... you know... with more vomit and decapitation.
If you launch a wooden mine cart towards the ocean at a sufficient speed, you can have your entire dwarf sail away in an ark.

This is actually the second artifact door in the fort, but this is my first Planepacked artifact.

I think yarn is a bit bugged.  I have had all kinds of trouble with it, personally.  Dwarves routinely refuse to make things out of plentifully available yarn, but are happy to use silk thread or plant thread all day long.  Irrespective of hospitals or imported/domestic, or anything else.

Unrelated: it would really suck to have your wounds sewn up with yarn...

stuff like horse hair thread also counts as yarn, even though it can't be woven into cloth (only used for sutures).  Also, the system isn't bugged.  I had a clothier mood last night, and I assigned him to a burrow with the workshop and my cloth stockpiles.  He wouldn't take anything, so I checked his preferences and saw that he actually had a rope reed fiber preference, and I had used all my rope reed cloth.  The rope reed cloth I had left was all imported (so no-quality dying job and otherwise cheap cloth).  So I decided to reproduce the planepacked bug.  I removed the workshop from his burrow, extended it to the dead trader with the cloth outside (and reclaimed that cloth).  He then gathered about 30 pieces of cloth from two bins before I decided it was enough, so I readded the workshop to the burrow and he began collecting other items (extended the mood burrow to some blocks, some leather, some gem stockpile, and to some bones).  He collected his other items and made a mitten (disappointing, earlier clothier moods got me a toga and a mask).
