Stabbedgirder has had its first real mood! (No, Urist McDumbassjeweler, I do not count possessions as real moods, especially if all they produce are perfect gemstones) A young boy, Ablel Worksmoothness, went secretive and claimed a Craftsdwarf's Workshop, demanding shells, bones, and metal bars. I temporarily turned on fishing for one of the layabout peasants, built a fishery, and waited. Once the peasant had caught and stored a turtle in the food stockpile. I then ordered the turtle to be cleaned. After the cleaning was done, I inspected the Fishery. Seeing no shells, I remembered seeing a post where someone mentioned offhand that the 2010 Fishery was different from the 40d fishery in that the former produced the shells from cleaning fish, whilst in the latter the shells wouldn't be produced until a dwarf ate the cleaned sea-critter. So I forbade all food other than the turtle, and waited.
Eventually, a peasant got hungry and went to the food stockpile (I believe it was even the same peasant who caught the turtle...), chowing down on the only thing that wasn't forbidden: the turtle. Another dwarf then swooped in and grabbed the remains of the turtle and brought it to the outside refuse stockpile next to the depot and the Craftsdwarf's Shop, where the our Child Prodigy grabbed the shells and bones from the turtle, along with a bar of iron from the Trade Depot, and began work on his artifact. A short while later, I received the announcement that young Worksmoothness had created Thoth Unol, 'The Auras of Soul', a turtle bone mask.
