Those pants aren't going to remain present for very long, apparently.

This is a fox skull helmet. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of fox bone and is encircled with bands of fox leather. This item is haunted by the ghost of Alfador Angrorung the fox.

Yes, yes, back from the dead, yada yada yada.  Had to post this somewhere.

Egarnomes, "The Old Diversion"
Engraved on the wall is an exceptionally designed image of dwarves by Ilral Sitalkeskal.  The dwarves are traveling.


The name doesn't translate well, it really means "we KNEW we shouldn't have taken that left turn at the haunted forest."

Keepin' the thread alive:

I think my engraver's trying to tell me something.

Also, engravers have begun making renditions of an image of cabinets. They are making artistic homages to pictures of cabinets... I guess it's better than dwarves in fetal positions or whatnot.

I think Ber is trying to send me a message regarding the quantity of engravings I've had him do lately.  Perhaps he'd like to go outside?

He's been watching The Silence of the Lambs? Elsewhere we have an image of a dwarf in a fetal position titled "The Glorious Fat."  Something may be a bit off in Ber's mind at this point.

Engraved on the wall is a masterfully-designed image of humans and dwarves by Ber Ilavuz.  The humans are speaking with the dwarves.

I do not recall a picnic occuring at any time in the history of Ageblazes, but maybe I missed it.

Ber is also a big fan of minotaurs, which are on the local coinage, so I guess that's the local symbol, and an image of two windows, which is perhaps the symbol of our civilization.  I may need to let Ber focus more intently on supplementing my task-force of masons and let his apprentices take over.  At the very least he'll get out more.

Ber needs a fell mood.

Now.

I guess the allure of those muskoxen chained up outside of the fortress is getting to be a little too much for my engraver.

Apparently, he finds the mayor rather dull.

Poor muskoxen. T_T

You should copy your save, abandon, and look in adventure mode to see what it's about.

To my considerable irritation I could not find a way down the various cliffs and mountainsides in the area to actually get into my fortress and try to discern just what the heck Ber is on about with some of these.  I'm definitely curious about the muskox one, as well, so let us know.

If you really want to reach your fortress in adv. mode, there're 3 ways: easy, medium and hard.

1) Hard: make temporary fortresses and dig channels to your fortress from plains. It looks ugly from map though.
2) Medium: return from world map to local map a lot of times, walking around. This way you may appear on the desired height (z-axis) to reach your fortress.
3) Easy: temporary mod the creature type of your adventurer to fly.
