Journal of Grim
15th Galena
One of our metalworkers has gone all moody and claimed a forge down in the magmaworks.
My project continues at a good pace.
16th Galena
A goblin ambush has been slaughtered nearly as soon as we saw it. The human caravan guards died similarly easily.
11th Limestone
The metalworker has made an adamantine throne. It's almost a pity we have no one to sit in it.
21st Limestone
Another group of misbegotten migrants has come to live here in our wonderful home.
5th Sandstone
I was working on the project today and something went wrong... I'm in the hospital with several broken bones and a lot of cuts. The doctor told me that Cyatica died during the accident.
22nd Sandstone
The doctor told me that Grimmash died of infection from his fight with the forgotten beast. Pity, I had hoped to end him myself. I rather wonder what it would be like to kill a regicide.
9th Timber
My project was completed today. I stood at it's feet as the last block was put in place. There was a rumble and a roar. I felt the ground shift beneath my feet. The access stairs crumpled and fell, rubble and dust billowing towards me. But the earth did not tear, the ground did not sunder. The blocks clattered to my feet and the dust cleared and I saw that no harm had been done.
It did not work.
I feel rather cheated of my fun.
10th Timber
A werepangolin stumbled into our frontdoor today. One of the soldiers was present and cut it down in short order.
I need to find something to do with myself now.
11th Timber
A dust cloud on the horizon, the smell of rot on the wind. The dead walk and we go to battle once more.
A great crowd of corpses of men and goblins swarm towards our halls. We stand ready to do battle. All our soldiers are waiting for them.
Swords sweep, axes hack and spears thrust. Rotten flesh cleaves from bone and limbs soar through the air. Moaning corpses fall silent and crumble. The dead are beaten back.
A dwarf falls. A trio of dead clawing at his armour.
The last corpse is purged and the defenders stand triumphant over their oldest enemy once more.
________________________________
Well I decided to finish on this point. An undead siege came (no necromancers for some reason. Makes it a lot less sporting.) and we killed them all with just one casualty, an unnamed dwarf. Since this is likely the last thing worth ending on I decided that it was good to finish on a high note.
Turned out my last save was a reversion to just before the power miner was built and this time when I had it finished Grim had wandered just out of the lethal area of the burrow. Didn't know there was one so that was a tad annoying.
