Early Spring Report by CaptainArchmage:
A few days into spring, the cave river overflows and floods out the area. No casualties reported. The secure farm was flooded so we can start growing food now.
My friends, I'm proud to announce my new environmental policy. No tree left standing.
Since the chasm barracks is completely open, I'm going to have some bridges built to cover it.
*******Major Fortress Event*******
Shortly after the Spring Report, CaptainArchmage ran screaming into an office and locked the door. Those dwarves who came to see what was up were given drawings, requests, and orders under the door. Some of the drawings are annotated in a strange language that cannot be identified. The list requests the production of steel, floodgates, levers, the construction of aqueducts, and the mining of long, narrow tunnels and curiously shaped rooms.
Note to players: I'm going to post major and minor events to post on, along with screenshots; if people want to comment on those in their own words, they can and probably should. CraftedDreams is about to undergo some radical changes.
The event list thus far:
-The Craftsdwarf Mebzuth Abbeypeace was ambushed by a ratman in the chasm barracks, but escaped. The ratman was splattered on a weapon trap.
-The Elven caravan showed up.
-Some kobolds have showed up.
-More ratman got out of the chasm. As the chasm barracks was still empty, there was excessive violence. One of the cats fell into the chasm, but no dwarves did.
-Even more ratman got out of the chasm. This time one of the (novice) metalsmiths got robusted before the swordsdwarves got there. One axedwarf got their first and got rather injured, but none of the ratmen made it out.
-Two aqueducts have been ordered built across the chasm. What can they be for?
