What Highmax thinks he said:
I have been blessed with the blood gods might fear me!

What he really said:
RAAAAARRRRGGGHHHHH

[Sheaim]

That grand dining room is really scary though. Pools of vomit, blood and remains everywhere... The spilled booze is my licencia poetica, but still...Creepy as hell.

[danmanthedog]

"HAAAAAAA feast your eyes on fliermanor where your dreams themselves freeze."

[TD1]

Yes. Also, that dining hall was made by me. That all happened mere weeks ago (In game time)

Also, the wall around the outside has some steps up to the next level. Fortifications on top of the wall, and floor beside the wall, all the way around. Then use scheduling to station Marksdwarves up there. Once there are two marksdwarf squads, do three month patrolling and three month training, with one squad always patrolling.

[Sheaim]

I'll get to it.

[Sheaim]

Here goes:

The downfall
Two books found in the Great Room and in one of the workshopsin Dreamwings


8th Slate
One of our diggies slipped on the snow and got his leg damaged.
Seriously, if some help doesn't come soon we'll all be lying in our beds...

20th Slate
They come! Good Armok, They come!
Twenty new dwarves, all fresh and ready to work for the glory of Dreamwings!

25th Slate
Exept for the migrant wave this moth was almost serene...
I am almost forgetting where we are... If only not the stench of death everywhere.

27th Slate

Interesting. One of the ghosts hounting the fortress came to me and said:
"The empty coffin in the Burial Chambers is mine. Don't you dare disturb me any more!"
And vanished...
His name appeared on the coffin, even though the box itself seems empty.
Oh well, i'll let him rest.

1st Felsite

I've ordered the big pit to be the place to dump goblin cages. Let them fight among each other - even if they manage
to gnaw their way out.

What the...

I just witnessed murder...
Our tailor just snapped and killed another dwarf in his sleep!

What is this place?

8th Felsite

Justice is served!

13th Felsite

The Elves have arrived. I hope they have something good to trade...

16th Felsite
Oddom Bardumcog started screaming something about a grand idea... We'll see what it is.

An ambush! Five goblins emerged from the snows to attack our fortress!
I'll sound the alarm, sll dwarves are to get into the fortress!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

23rd Felsite

A beast from under the earth attacked us...
six dwarves died, many more are severely injured. Blademan has lost his hand, and I don't know if he'll live.

those goblins are a menace. Five more of the bastards arrived...

27th Felsite
(bloodstained)
This is a slaughter. Out of thirty dwarves only ten are still alive. I am lying on the floor, slowly bleeding out...

Whoever you are, run. Run and never come back, this place is cursed...


<Another Dwarf's writing>
3rd Hematite
Blademan has been killed. Sheaim has been killed. Everyone's dead...
Am I the last one standing?

No, there are still two other dwarves here. And two children.
Armok, what is going on here...

8th Hematite

The elves have been slaughtered, same for the liason and his escorts. I can only hope the goblins don't decide to run inside...
It would be the end for all of us.

22nd Hematite

I hear screams from the caverns...
It seems one of our bretheren was still alive down there. I don't want to even think about what happened to him...

24th Hematite

It's only me, the maniac and the kids left now...
Nothing more. I feel the goblin stench coming from the direction of the entrance.
I sit now, alone, in the once - great dining room...
Great Armok. It has came. The beast from the caverns is here!

17th Hematite
<Hasty writing>
These bastards got themselves slaughtered and I don't even get to finish my work...
I hear battle outside. Screams of slaughter more like.
They are all dead... Even children. And my life's work unfinished...

10 Malachite
I'm still here. Components for my grand work still missing. I don't scream only so the beasts don't hear me...
I'm all alone here...
All alone.

19th Malachite
Another monster wanders the corridors...
If somebody doesn't come soon, I'll go mad. The stench of death is unbearable...

I'm through.
Signing out, bye

____________________________________________

Sorry, guys. It just wasn't doable. One of the beast wandered in and crushed the farms and entered the fortress from below, gobbos from upstairs... No chance given.

[Sheaim]

I just entered the Legends to see Highmax. this guy was a butcher:



Anyways, here's the save:
http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=8293

I wonder if reclaiming it would be a good idea...

Probably not.

[highmax28]

How the hell did I kill a ghost?!

[Sheaim]

The legends said that you did it with a silver dagger. Maybe silver can damage ghosts?

[danmanthedog]

Whelp that was a good run  . So ho votes for reclaiming or doing some thing different like moving the fort a few embark squares away or trying the south pole?

Adventurer=1
Return to last save=1

[Sheaim]

Get an adventurer in there!

I wanna see his journal after entering the Fliermanor 

[TD1]

I propose a return to the last save? I think the situation is more than manageable if you'd closed the gates to the caverns....

I just don't like all my work going to naught is all.

If noone minds, Sheaim could redo his turn. If they do or he doesn't want to, the next person down could start from last save.

[Sheaim]

The problem is that the gobbos themselves are more than enough to deal with this excuse of a military we have right now, and we don't have enough traps to get them all.

Also, I did close the gates. It's just that the bastard that came from below ate through the wall, the bridge and all the doors in his wake. And the dwarves of course.

I'll try this a few times more with a different approach and see what happens...

Sooo - rewind!
And let's pray to Armok it doesn't go to hell even faster.

Oh, and one more thing - what's up with those happy dwarves just murdering each other? Something is seriously wrong here, and it happened in no other fortresses of mine...

[danmanthedog]

It's the void i tell you it latches on to the dwarfs, slowly eating away at their sanity.

[Sheaim]

1st Granite
It is the beggining of my reign in Fliermanor...
I wonder what will I see here?

13th Granite
The dead rise and howl!
Terrifying, truly. But I have too much work to concern myself with such things.

25th Granite
One dwarf. One dwarf in a goddamn migration wave. Hooray.

1st Felsite
That sucker started making something. Fey mood.
He's using gold bars. Wonder what'll it be?

5th Felsite
The dwarves started fighting. It seems to have something to do with Highmax's blood, as both are covered in spatters of it...
This log is hilarious though:

6th Felsite


16th Felsite
An ambush, as expected.
Only one casaulty so far.

21st Felsite
Some additional gobbos.
The lever signed "Trade Depot Gate"
did nothing.
Elves will get slaughtered in a minute, I think.

25th Felsite
Yup
I'm going to wall it off with a bridge. Also, the guy that made the artifact? Ran out and got murdered by a goblin lasher. Oh well.

28th Felsite
Another goblin wave. We're pretty much done for, I think.
They still haven't entered. If this keeps up just a little longer, I'll be able to wall us off from the outside completely.

21st Hematite
I think I managed to wall us off the gobbos. Hopefully we can survive down here until some hope arrives. It might take some time.

13th Malachite
The beast flew over the wall and into the farms. Farm destroyed, five dwarves dead. The beast killed with a willow sword.
OH WELL.
Oh, and another migration wave. One of the dwarves killed, rest managed to get in. His sacrifice will not be forgotten.

The killer, Mebzuth Enshalonul will be dorfed.
Who wants to be this hero?

_________________________________________________

I don't even...
Just come on!
There are seven more gobbos outside...


_________________________________________________

this is stupid. These dorfs don't feed their wounded, even though a well is available, and everything should be running just fine...

_________________________________________________

13th Galena

Rutherers infesting mines. Vermin.

Also, humans arrived. Let's see how their escorts deal with our goblin friends here...

16th Galena
Mere sight of the merchants' escorts was enough to scare the goblins off...
We're good for now. If only not for those rutherers...

1st Limestone
We have cleared the corridors of rutherers...
Unfortunately, we have many casaulties, but we're in a better situation than at the beggining of the year.

Oh dear...
What does the "stalk and brood" mean?
I'm worried now. Seriously.

10th Sandstone
Migrants! Thank Armok - we're short on dwarfpower.

16th Sandstone
The brooding dwarf went insane. I couldn't supply him with the silk cloth in time...
Shame.

And... uh...
Blademan died of thirst. In bed. Those stupid dwarves didn't feed him or give him any water...
