Tomato! The listening tubes! Is that... Voices? New voices?
Holy shit! Flame! I hear my parents! We're digging a tunnel to the surface NOW!Okay, dig it over by the farm plot!
Everyone! Get in here! Down the hole! Go go go! Is that everyone?Everyone but the animals!Forget them! I'll wall it up! There. That was exhausting. I'm taking a nap.
So after that chaotic scramble, we've acquired 10 more members to our little hole. And a war doge that came down the hole with them. Some else might think that's a good thing, but Tomato and I could handle all the work, so this is just more mouths to feed. We're running dangerously low on booze.
Apparently we've also acquired Tomato's parents and younger brother as well. I can imagine how that conversation went.
"Hello son! How are the wife and kids!"
"Dead."
*silence*
Anyway, I've compiled a list of things we need to do, in rough order of importance:
1. Acquire more food and booze
2. Acquire wood for beds (or just beds)
3. Liberate and secure more rooms
4. Get other resources
5. Start a new military - half our new migrants have military skills
6. Beat back the demons
Speaking of beating back the demons, this is a sketch of the dining hall from the Booze Room Peep-Hole. All those demons are trying to smash an artifact table, the last remaining piece of furniture from the old dining hall.
Doesn't look like much, but it's weathering the beatings of 30-some demons without a scratch. Immortalitysave. Fitting name. Wonder who made it? They're dead now, but their legacy lives on.
Anyway, with all those demons sitting there, you'd think we could drop a floor on them or something. But unfortunately to do that we'd have to dig through part of the bedrooms, which are, you guessed it, demon-controlled. You can also see in the sketch
We've made a couple of room acquisitions lately. First, this crafting hall:
This netted us wood, most importantly, but also blocks, some metal, some space, and some raw adamantine, which could be useful someday. There's also a few slabs we can right and a giant cave swallow skeleton we can get some bones from.
Then the blocks we gained let us acquire this room:
It's got plenty of food and booze to last us a while, plus one bed we don't have to make. You can also see the animals pressed up against the wall, which somehow managed to get past the demons to get there. Gives me hope we can pull one over on them, that does.
can you get the migrants profiles?
Maybe later when there are more than 12 dwarves and we have some hope. I don't want to dwarf unnecessarily. Also I can't be arsed.
