I just read the whole thing. So far, the story is fantastic, and full of great ideas. Please write more soon, it's too good to wait much longer.

*Puts a hand into the air and dramatically shouts*
This is the best dwarf fortress story I've read ever. It would be such a great thing to have another update or two... Oh how great that would be..
*looks around to see if Eiba noticed*

[Xotes]

(twitches insanely) C'mon, update... I need an update or I'll be stuck playing Nikujin... THE IMAGES!!! (Is locked up in an asylum) NOOOOOO!!!!

only option is a rolling barrier. Basically, Raised bridges to the left of me, raised bridges to the right Bridges in the center raised to make a defense if needed.

Bridges to the left of me

Bridges to the right

Here I am, stuck in the middle on ANOTHER EFFING BRIDGE!

Women to the left of me
And women to the right

And got no gun, and got no knife, don't you start no fight.

Doesn't seem too similar.

[Toady One]

Might be thinking of the Stealers Wheel song?

[Xotes]

Here I am, Rock you like a hurricane!

Hello,
  O.K., O.K., so, Urist drags Melbil's corpse towards the river.  As he brings a rock down upon her head, her last thoughts echoed forever, "I'm always so careful, why didn't I check first with a spear?  Can I die?  Can a god really die?  The river??".  

Many years later the legendary Overlord Melbil sits atop his dark throne in a bustling dwarven citadel in the haunted lands, dispensing harsh justice, expanding his fort, and sending forth armies...all the while sipping dwarven wine only from one particular bejewled mug: a dwarven skull menacing with spikes of kitten leather.

============================================

Well, maybe that's NOT at all what happened, but, I guess that I'll make my own closure - and you'll make yours.

[Twilight]

Hello,
  just as an aside, I had 7 dwarves (new fortress), and the metalsmith came along with 1 peasant, a Mr. Melbil the peasant.  I don't know about that name: hit a chasm spur while clearing-out the main storage area, so I tried to use cave-ins to seal-off the chasm spur (3 tries, no results, finally used impassible doors all the way around).  Of course, nothing happened for a while, then, a "deep" rumble, and, nothing.  A while later, nothing.  On some bizarre hauling task (I mean, this area was off in a corner with nothing around - and I made sure not to put anything nearby) and out of nowhere, Melbil comes flying across the area and crosses by the chasm.  Oh, no, a second dwarf is now also travelling through this empty area, mysteriously out of any direct hauling path.
  Bam!  Instant cave-in.  The second dwarf is hit, but the only injury that he has is having the wind knocked out of him.  Melbil, but, of course, is crushed and instantly killed by the falling rock.  A nice tomb has been laid there for his honor.  
  Melbil: Melbil the Victim, "I just can't get no respect" Melbil, Melbil whom fate toys with - a DF character whom we all seem to eventually encounter.

I get alot of Urists. It's a little creepy, really.
