13th Moonstone
They dare come!? The goblins have returned of all things. Haven't they learned that there
last siege failed? No matter I must have the military assemble.
I am watching the siege from a safe distance, taking in numbers. It seems the Goblins are
lead by an axe lord. But they only brought one bowman. We shall have our advangate with the
fortified gate front.
Then I notice another squad of golbins coming in. In horrow i noticed not only was it lead
by a spearlord, it had a at least 6 ranged goblins.
The first to reach our gates is the axelord. He crosses the bridge that seperates us and the
ice... only to fall victim to one of our cage traps. Quickly the rest of the goblins rush
foward. The firsts one becoming victims to the cage and stone fall traps. The weapon traps
killed even more. The ranged goblins wasted there ammunition on animals that strayed in the
front. Even two war dogs held them at bay.
They are now in full retreat. Both of there leaders have been captured. Most of there raiding
members have been killed. And all there ammunition is gone while our three sqauds of
marksdwarves were full with iron bolts.

Ha. It seems the kobolds thought they could use the confusion of the siege to sneak a few things
out of our vaults. Not likely.

It seems this place is an inspiration for metalsmiths. Another metalsmith has been inspired. The
third dwarf during my term.

The winter has been strangley quite. Though i will say that im am surprisingly relieved that my term is over, my only regret is that my tomb will now forever lie in near finish.
-------------------------
I am deeply sorry about that long delay but here it is finally. My only wish for future rulers is PLEASE donn't remove the cages or their contents from my tomb. Or ruin my tomb for that matter.

I would have a picture of the whole fortress to but I am having trouble figuring out how to upload to the dh map archive and imageshack is taking forever that i cant wait for it.
