The mason that hated the elves
« on: December 05, 2016, 04:20:02 pm »

I had statues made by my mason , and a statue had this description.
"This is a superior quality gypsum statue of elves. The item is a rendition of The Murk of Rings, an image of two elves, a dwarf and a apple tree.  The dwarf  is laughing.  The two elves are screaming.  The apple tree is burning."

As it should be
Usually when a dwarf experiences death and murder,
they will engrave the victors laughing at the losers,
in this case Demons laughing at Elves.

Place it at the entrance to your fort, or around your trade depot.

This is the pinnacle of dwarven artistic expression.

There are several art threads, including one cool one in the Adventure Mode subforum; try there, maybe? Or just find the community art subforum, I know there's one, just not sure what it's called.

Super quick post-it note art is best art.

There is something to be said about, if the stakes are as high, maybe reconsider your certitudes. One has to be aggressively allistic to feel entitled to be able to trust. But it won't happen to me, my bit doesn't count etc etc... Just saying, after my recent experiences I couldn't trust the public if I wanted to. People got their risk assessment neurons rotten and replaced with game theory. Folks walk around like fat turkeys taunting the world to slaughter them.

Make that stick look even a little more like a flaming marshmallow and we'll be good.
That's a good drawing, btw, nicely captures the essence of its source material.  :)
