OH MY GOD, POST 100=END 1ST TURN o.O
A Dog Leather bound journal, of mediocre quality litters the floor of the fortress known as TrialFires. On the front is scrawled "Journal of Captain Mountainhomes" accompanied by an image assumed to be said dwarf, in adamantine armor and shield. On the helm and shield are images of a dwarf, the symbol of the Banner of Abbeys."1st Granite, 108
Well its finally happened. I saw the signs, just like everyone else here, but I'm no psychedwarf, I'm a soldier, and a damn good one. My beloved has finally, totally, irrevocably snapped. She just lays around the quarters and the craftshop, muttering to herself and making trinkets she claims to be "corpses" of the rocks that litter the fort. Well I saw this coming and its kinda why I jumped her anyway, shes crazy in bed too hehe...oh armok dont let me start doing the crazy laugh she does now. Well anyway spring has arrived and we've already sent for a new overseer to look after this crazy mess. Just wish I had a better shield, crappy chestnut thing fit for elves not a true dwarf like m'self. But thats not really important, hard to get my thoughts straight in this stupid thing, but I heard before that writin things down helps keep ya sane, so I figure what the hell, why not. Supposedly the newbies supposed to arive sometime today, if his face isn't out in the wastes somewheres that is. Well I took enough of a break from training, but I better jot down some of the important details for the next guy in case hes one o' them weirdo's what goes readin peoples personal thoughts...get alot of those in these positions for some reason I hear."

You can also see the volcano in this sketch o' mine, still don't know why we aint dug in and made a decent magma forge yet, or any forge at all really, poor BFEL got so caught up in the rocks she neglected to get us any metal. But that should really cover all the important, not obvious parts of the fort, exceptin that the farms are up one level from everything else, over by the little hovels we call our residential district...such as it is."
(well i'm gonna go look into converting this save back to the non-graphics pack thing so I can pass it along to Melkor...or Apiks if M doesnt show.)
