Adventure Segment 016augh, I feel like crap. But after a small nap I am at least fit to travel again. Traveling north, I skip the rest of the large structures, as they seem to be more of the same.
I keep traveling until the forest thins out and the bodies stopped, then head east. I end up doubling back and finding what I believe is the entrance. It had best be, with two, no three large gates, a ballista, and a firing floor above. Gods, this is more like a proper fortress.
By the entrance, I find an engraver, pushing some dirt around with a stick. I ask her what she is doing, and before I get a proper response, a militia captain draws his mace and asks me to back off.
'The lady is busy with her latest masterpiece, why have you disturbed her?'
'I didnt mean any harm, I simply wanted to get inside the fort.'
'The forts blocked off. We dont allow strangers in. Who are you?'
'My name is Ur, and I'm a hunter by trade. I have come to mi-'
'Go around back, down the ramps, there a back door there. Mind your manners and report to Besmar.'
Well, stick to you too, sir. A bit stiff. True to his word, there was an entrance to the fort, and I was able to explore a bit
Inside, it was dark, and the floors were covered in moss. Just what was this?
Heading up to the main entrance, I found a Depot. Rows of slabs lined the wall, and stuff was littered everywhere.
Checking the bags, I found some armor worth trading, and thus removed my old armor for the new. Now I have an iron mail shirt and good leggings. Thankfully.
Over by the wall, I carefully translate the slabs. Memorials. All of them. Every one of the slabs was a dwarf cut down in battle. Gods.
Feeling sickened, I head down into the fort itself. What would await me in there?
