1st Felsite:
Renovations are still slow going, with a complete revamp of the food storage areas, and the
13th Felsite:
FINALLY, The Demon Responds!
4 squads of goblins (2 pike, 1 hammer, 1 lasher) arrive on the edge of the map.
The Shattering Knees dash off to the north, to take care of the first wave of pikemen, while the Feral Tombs (Axedwarf) stick around the entrance, making sure that no goblins will ever set foot into GateIvory.
After a few minutes of intense fighting, the squad of pikemen and a few trolls have been destroyed to the man, with three of the hammedwarves recieving wounds (strangely, they sprint back to the base, and collapse onto the beds in the hospital, instantly asleep)
The Shattering Knees then take up a defensive position at the front of the fort, while the Feral Tombs sprint off after the remaining pikemen and trolls.
The remaining pikemen are once again slaughtered, and not a single scratch is laid upon the axedwawrves.
The next target is the lashers, and the Feral Tombs are sent off after them, since they have proven themselves far more compentent.
After plowing through a squad of hammergoblins on their way to the lashers, leaving gigantic bloody swathes in their wake, the lashers turn tail and run.
As the lashers run off the map, a single squad of goblins being driven by a goblin spearmaster named Zolak Nightmaresmith (seriously, im not making this up).
After the Shattering Knees arrive and promptly destroy the entirety of that squad, Zolak is the only invader remaining.
Zolak puts up a fierce fight, with him wounding SIX of the dwarves (not serverely, but he keeps going for the feet/legs). Unable to take him down on their own, the Shattering Knees return to the fray, and Melbil leads the charge.
Incensed at the unwillingness to not die that this goblin shows, along with the desire to hurt her comrades, she jumps at the goblin, slamming into him and shoving him into a tree. While he is stunned, she takes her silver warhammer (at this point, covered in blood) and slams it into the right leg of Zolak, shattering the bones in his leg.
In a display of not only rather brutal aggression, but flexibility as well, Melbil bites down on the right hand of Zolak, ripping the muscles from it. While she is still latched onto his hand, Melbil proceeds to break the following bones:
Both Legs, Both Feet, Both Hands, Both arms, and his spine.
Releasing her grip from Zolak's right hand, she then proceeds to gouge out Zolak's left eye with her teeth, punching out all of his teeth, and jamming his arm bones through his flesh with the warhammer she carries.
At this point, she stops, and tells Zolak "Tell your master that he is no match for us. We will break any force you send. This IS GATEIVORY!"
After seeing this truely terrifying sight, Zolak closes his eyes one last time, falling to the ground exhausted.
Melbil raises her warhammer up high, and brings it down onto the head of Zolak so hard that it becomes stuck.
Raising a foot and shoving off Zolak's cooling corpse, the millitary walks back into the fort, more eyes than usual containing blank stares.
Meeting the millitary in the hospital (so that the whole millitary can be in one place), i bestow the following titles upon members of the millitary:
The Feral Tombs:
Iteb Mistemmeb Sodmeden (Iteb Portalinched the Misty Tribe) for Eleven Kills (ten goblins, one troll)
Rovod Unibdodok Zugobsazir (Rovod Ragclasp the Grand Bridge) for Eleven Kills (nine goblins, two trolls)
Avuz Kubukrikkir Ngobol Basen (Avuz Lancedwhiskers the Glumness of Spraying) for Eleven Kills (eleven Goblins)

The Shattering Knees:
Melbil Abelluzat Umshadkobel (Melbil Bustrubbed The Ponderous Summet) for Five Kills (4 goblins, including their general, and a troll)
Bemul Morulkasben Osemar (Bemul Pagetuffed the Certain Animal) for eight kills in the battle (six goblins, two trolls).
Thikut Kobal Koshdesothil Gikut (Thikut Wheeltoned the Heliotrope Weakness of Dabblers) for nine kills in the battle (six goblins, three trolls).
"Soldiers, You have done well this day", i proclaim to them. "While this was a great victory, it did not come without some wounds. Remember that we are trying to break a demon, and this is to be only the first of many great battles. I honor you all, and i hope that you will continue to become as hard as you need to be. FOR GATEIVORY!"
The room resounds with the shouts of "For Gateivory" from the soldiers, even mumbling from the mouths of the sleeping millitary sounds like they are joining in.
I let the military celebrate, and ask Melbil back to my office. The remaining soldiers that are not fast asleep in the hospital.
I tell Melbil that she has done an excellent job, and that she is to continue breaking the minds of the dwarves that are under her command.
