Date Unknown
Some people complained about a noise coming from the walls, maybe the Cavern on the other side.



Should be nothing much.

Date Unknown
Humans haven't showed up.  Odd.

Limestone 11, 211
Caravan arrived, though without the Outpost Liason.  Good.  Means I don't have to deal with someone trying to steal away my time.  I'm going to ignore them like the elves because there is nothing I want.

Limestone 15, 211
Another dwarf has gotten taken by a mood.  Let's see if its Xantalos taking over another dwarf.

...aaand he grabbed the forge again.  Lovely.

Limestone 16, 211
A kea stole a yak leather glove artifact I didn't know we had named 'Passholes'.  There's a joke in there, but I really don't care enough.

Limestone 19, 211
Some schmuck just showed up being dead.  Killed by a giant Kea who descended through the courtyard.  Sicked the military on it.  Maybe one of the two crossbows might kill it.

Limestone 20, 211
Nevermind, I'll just sick them on the rest of the Keas flying around.  Civilians decided to group up and kill the Kea themselves.

Some guy also made this artifact.



Limestone 21, 211
Some mechanic decided to fight the Kea in the front hall.  Front hall is now covered in blood.  I'll give him a promotion if he lives.  Doubt it, though, as the Chief Medical Officer, Arx, climbed up to the top of the tower being worked on, and fell asleep there.

Limestone 25, 211
Giant Kea finally left.  Prick stole the sword as well.

Sandstone 3, 211
So the previous Overseer didn't assign an area to serve as a hospital.  Current wounded count is apparently 3.

Sandstone 6, 211
Took over the position of Broker as Arx doesn't want to trade for cloth that we...well, not technically need, but it would alleviate all these complaints I keep getting.  Bought every piece of cloth in the caravan.

Sandstone 18, 211
Keas left sometime ago after we killed the third.  Construction can get back to being done.

Sandstone 28, 211
Designated the construction of a windmill on top of the tower the prior overseer made over the trade depot.  Also, more migrants arrived.

Moonstone 3, 211
I would like to respond to rumors going around.  No, it is not self-centered to dedicate fortress resources to build yourself a tower for yourself if you are Overseer.

Moonstone 25, 211
Note to self, the waters here freeze in the winter.

Opal 11, 211
My tower from which I will conduct temporial experiments over my tomb between acting as broker has been completed.

Opal 18, 211
MaxCat has grown attached to a larch shield for some reason.  However, now I am wondering.  Have I told them to go on break for a time?

Opal 26, 211
And now it is snowing.

Final touches of my addition are being worked out.

Obsidian 19, 211
Someone else was taken by a mood.  So it looks like I might just wind up getting the end of year artifact count to have increased during my time.

Obsidian 21, 211
Mood caused the dwarf to grab a mason's workshop.  Construction has begun, but I have little hopes of getting a repeat success on the scale of that sword.  Why didn't the Keas grab the earring?

Obsidian 26, 211


...eh, someone will find a use for it.  Anyway, Arx is throwing an end of the year party at the new dining hall which only needs 6 chairs for it to be fully complete.  Might as well use it to hand off the reigns of the fort.

Obsidian 28, 211
Did I ever build the coffins for everyone that died and 4mask and the other pleb that died a year ago?  And did I ever let the military have a break?  Did I even move them into the tower, rather than leaving them in the pit 4mask died in?

Granite 1, 212
Apparently sometime during the party I designated some schmuck to be successor.  At the same time as this transition, someone was elected mayor.  Meh.  I've got time to decipher.

Deus Asmoth is up.

Also, can we get the description of the sword?

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Damn that sword would have been useful too...

Now to update the OP.

Zanzet, did you dwarf anyone other than those explicitly mentioned from the migration?

Oh, I should probably be a dwarf in this, shouldn't I?

Make me a Siege Engineer/Operator. I better see some catapults and ballistas on my tower!

You will see a tree inside the fortress.  It would be for the best not to remove it.

Thus is Recorded the Word of the Deus, Asmoth.
1] And lo, for the arrogance of the dwarves drew my ire, and I chose an avatar to guide them into the light once more.
2] However, I was displeased by the state of the fortress as it stood and said unto my avatar:
3] "This place is naught but a hole in the ground."
4] And my avatar did agree with me, and said unto the dwarves:
5] "What the hell have you shower of lazy mushrooms suckers been doing?"
6] And the dwarves said unto him:
7] "Wha'?"
8] And my avatar entered into a mighty fury and struck the dwarves, saying:
9] "You idiots are going to build me a decent bedroom before the end of spring, or heads are going to roll."
10] And the dwarves did so.
11] And so it came to pass that my avatar did see that an especially prideful dwarf had build a tomb which could be seen from both near and far, and he said:
12] "I must have a tomb that is still bigger and grander than that of this pretender."
13] And the faithful among the dwarves did agree, for the Deus must have the best of all things.
14] But my avatar knew that this would not be enough to fully shame the pretender, so he said:
15] "And my tomb shall be balanced on top of that of the pretender!"
16] And the faithful among the dwarves did agree joyfully, eager to be a part of this great work.
