https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=15216I have to share the internet, so I didn't have a chance to upload last night. Here is the save.
Edit: And here is the rest of my updates.
Journal of Fatcat, overseer of GoldsilverOpal 20th, 251
What a day. The cyclops charged right past the unfinished end of the wall, and slaughtered Vabok, a miner. It then went and stomped on a couple of our animals before the military could catch it. It then badly pounded one of the monster hunters, before finally succumbing to the efforts of our militia.
I have asked that someone dump the corpse of the cyclops outside the wall, and have ordered a tomb built for Vabok.
It was a terrifying day, but I suppose it could have been worse. The livestock distracting the monster was a blessing form the gods.
Granite 1st, 252,
Today, my term comes to an end, and very little that I set out to do is actually done. I am mentally exhausted from the daily concerns and complaints of the citizens, and from trying to design the structures that will define this fortress for years to come. The only thing I was able to complete that I promised was a more complete seal of the caverns.
I was unable to collect any more animals except for a few brought for trade, although some of the creatures did give birth in the last year. Niether of the massive construction projects were completed, either.
The wall encircles about half of the fortress, but the production of blocks continues to drag on at a miserable pace.
Building it up the side of the mountain is going to take a massive amount of materials. Hopefully my successor can bring it to a secure level of completion.
The mountainside has been slowly yielding to the picks of our miners, but two layers remain between the present level and the fortress.
It is providing a massive quantity of stone for construction, which is proving useful.
Currently, the most material is being poured into the temple that Lucky requested. It is a wonder that no other religion has requested a place to worship. Not that we have the dwarfpower to build anything else.
Besides the base level walls, some attempts have been made to prepare a farm underneath the building, out of the frigid mountain winds.
The population has exploded over the last year, from the 8 dwarves that voted me into office this spring to 52 citizens, and 21 monster hunters.
We did have the joyful news shortly after the cyclops incursion.
Yung Boujee and another dwarf both presented us with a new baby within a single day of each other. We all hope that our fortress can provide a good home to them.
I must lay down my pen, now. The time has come for the elections. May the best dwarf win, and may they have the strength to run this place.
