There's a few unnamed dwarves and some random legend poets I could dorf you as before I send in the save if you're interested.

I want to tell you they were bad men, cephalo.  I want to tell you that with a better overseer the Fortress never would've gotten so bad someone would get offed in a pointless fisticuffs.
But the sad truth charlie?
It was inevitable.

Or he could just choose the dorf himself? I don't see the point in doing it at the very end.

Just upload the save, you've had long enough.

Ah, yes, I thought something was amiss. Now I see. There's not enough terrible things in the lakes.

A legendary poet? I suppose if you tried to compose a poem about Bloodyhells, you'd either go mad, or become a legend ...

Not legendary, that was a typo. What I meant was "random elven poets and I think one goblin"; presumably they'll eventually petition for citizenship. I hope.

Well, I don't give a shit. I've been working too, full time job, so not a lot of free time. See how far I can get on this in my timeframe.

Alright, this place is really pretty nuts. I can't make heads or tails of it to be honest, it looks like the first building-destroyer to appear on the surface will have a straight shot at more than one hatch cover that's accessible from ground level, and thereby a straight shot into the fort. There's nothing I can really do except wall off the halls connected to these hatch covers, and it looks like someone already designated one, but the wall was never actually built.

Also, one of those husks on the surface, Bilalo Blazeskin the Obeisant Excavation, an elf miner, has 41 kills associated with a book he's holding in his hands, titled Systems and The Boulders.

This is nuts.

I have chosen the eldest male elf, Cacame Vadanealala, a visiting poet, as my "dwarf." The only unclaimed dwarf is a five year old girl.

You've been playing Dwarf Fortress for too long when you can read elven.

Thus continues the fine architectural traditions Battlefailed forts are known for.

I'm making a tabletop game based on Dwarf Fortress called The Land of Omen. Alala the Lion is the name of one of the elven forces. Vadane is my favorite elven name, I just like how it sounds. Cacame is obvious. You just happened to have three of the sixish elvish words I know by heart in your name. I should go to bed.

Hey, you should always have one as an advisor!

Though I believe we've already done the "child goes around suggesting to adults what to do" in previous forts.
it looks like the first building-destroyer to appear on the surface will have a straight shot at more than one hatch cover that's accessible from ground level, and thereby a straight shot into the fort.
This is correct. Actually, when I checked it before Archereon's turn they were unforbidden as well, so all the undead also had a path.

I'm fairly certain that the paths into the fortress that could be broken by a building destroyer were made by me.
