1060 Report10 Years, we have been here ten years and its getting worse and worse all the time. I have to do something, more people are becoming insane, the fort crawls with creatures that we just barely recognise as something once living. Most the dwarves are slowly becoming insane. Its an unending evil cycle. Curse the leadership of the past. We just wanted a grandest dwarven halls and yet we are a population of under one hundred "dwarves". Are we really dwarves, some of us don't even resemble anything remotly dwarven. A cut off dwarven hand scraps itself across the floor aimlessly. I didn't know what to do.
Is this even a crundle anymore?
We did have some artifacts
With the second artifact, it is again this odd fixation on this one historical event, i don't understand it. Further research is required.
A fortgotton beast arrived in crundle hell, the thing stood no chance.
My answer to the problem was the tower, the tower is what made us into this so we might aswell give it something back. I have decided to take control of boyishclutched, send majourity of the population and barricade the tower behind them. Most necromancers seem unable to leave the towers, the odd construction and questionable layout suggest that they seem to lose themselves within the structure.
Hence they will stay for hundreds of years writting and just aimlessly doing nothing. My hope is by removing the unhappy and unproductive and keeping a healthy skeleton crew that i might be able to make this place, safe for mortal dwarves. I know its not gonna be easy but with commander Obisdian and the rest of his squad my hope is they can clear the remaining beasts to a safer level. Im hoping the days of making dwarf bone gems will soon be behind us and this dark history will be lost to time. I guess time will tell, plus i seemingly have an abundance of it.
Obsidian was missing but we soon learned that whilst the citizens were leaving, the undead began to rise up. He was fighting them back without orders, he is currently missing although reports suggest he is deceased. Atleast he did this fort a good service. He will be remembered well.
We are now 16 dwarves, 10 of us are adults but 9 functional. We still have a prisoner Morul.
He is the mad werebeast locked away for years. I have learned that he is likely immortal due to the curse. Perhaps sending the weregoat free to fight off the beasts of the cavern? Although what if he becomes a zombie werebeast. I will leave it up to you dwarves to decide his fate
Many we rise and fall together
