So, I'm starting to get some of those crashes that everyone's been going on about lately.
This happened just as Urist McCreepyhusband finished picking one of the surface plants, I'm not sure what the other dwarves were doing, but yeah. My guess is that he accidentally uprooted Yggdrasil, being that they're on the edge of existence and all.

Urvad found food! As well as something that is decidedly not food! We are all eternally grateful to him, especially whoever won the wrestling match for the morsel.
Plus, with the help of one of our buckets and the snowfall within the yak pasture, we've managed to make that fishpond I was talking about earlier. It's slow going, but I'm confidant we'll be able to catch a surplus with enough determination. The others- who are not well-versed in the mysticism of fishery working- keep demanding to know where we've been hiding all the fish our new pond is stocked with. I don't know what to tell them, honestly.
SC ML 10:
Oh gods, why? Those thrice damned blizzardmen just won't go away! They keep hovering about the edge of the world- as if they want to somehow leap off of creation itself- but then they turn around and circle the wasteland again. A short while ago we had quite a scare, the monsters actually ran straight for the floor hatch to our fortress! Just marched right up, danced around our entrance, before marching right back to the edge!
WHAT DO YOU WANT BLIZZARDMEN!?!
Also of note, the livestock gave birth recently, I've ordered the males to be slaughtered to stock our larders.
SC ML 11:
More migrants! Hopefully this batch will be as productive as the Odd Couple, as we've taken to calling them.
But wait, what are those...?
NOOOOooo!! I can't watch! Lambcake, do me a favor and chisel out some slabs for the- What the?
Really? That's who we've been cowering at the thought of? I almost feel sorry for them, maybe we should set up some cage traps and try to tame the poor things.
Two more married couples, what do these people think we're doing here, to make them think SteelyCathedrals is a good place to raise their families? We're digging for buried treasure people! In a permafrosted wasteland at the edge of the world! Honestly, some people...
This brings the total population to...
Lucky thirteen.
Joy.
At least we've got a doctor now.
SC ML 12:
Meph has finally finished "liberating" her galena vein, at first I thought she would start getting back to the official excavation we're supposed to be doing, but instead she darted off to the stocks to grab gods know what. I've seen dwarves that get touched, and though she didn't seem to be touched herself, I reckon she has something big planned all the same.
She just got back to me and presented me with a rough plan of what she claims will bless us with Armok's favor.
A cathedral in SteelyCathdrals? Sure, why not!? She excitedly pointed out what all the rooms would be; reliquaries to house our artifacts, a Hall of the Honored Dead for citizens that die in bloody combat, special housing for the clergy, "baptismal doors" made from great-axe traps that bisect the unworthy, multiple altars, totems and temples within the complex for the devout... She spoke so fast, that I missed the rest but it did sound like something Armok would delay our painful deaths to see.

While I'm pretty sure the year isn't up yet, (Save screen still says it's 251) when it is it would be nice to know who gets the fort next and how exactly I give it to them. I started this thing on a whim, and I'm not sure enough of all the protocols to mess with saves or raws or whatever without any instructions.
