sneak-peek, late spring - early summer :
i was patching ceiling leaks near our magma forge and opened access to the cavern by mistake. then a
forgotten beast
(see what i did there? heh) escaped my eyes and spooked one of our doctor. i thought Galka killed everything.
some gobbos also came to visit in the early summer, there aren't a lot of them though. they can't face the might of Nobleriver's milita anyway.
-------------------------
background notes :
++ looks like somebody forgot to turn off their civ cap setting. we shouldn't have this many citizen. i originally thought half of our 90+ was visitors, but nope, all civ. leaving their fate to @Inatun for now.
++ @Baprr what were you trying to do with the long hallway? nearly killed some dorf when i was trying to capture Galka, lol. for now i'm turning those into blueprint.
++ @Baprr also, your tree farm is a failure i think. it can produce some woods later, but we've breached 3rd layers already, meaning more colorful tree and less economic tree (less white caps <- they produce a lot).
++ we're officially out of logs in mid summer. i would cut more, but that would mean starting a war with the elves. we do have a breeding pair already, but Tigers need 3 years to mature. i'm thinking of halting the clear glass production for now. need more tigers. unless you guys vote otherwise
.... buuuuut, i did produce around 400 ish clear glass already. will be personally using most of them though.
++ my current focus is trying to repurpose the magma pool near our forge into a (fool-proof, and hopefully safe) obsidian casting area. i tapped into the nearby lake, looks like it's connected to the edge, so water is infinite. when that's done, i will probably destroy all the other cheap stones that aren't flux or doesn't have a pretty color. Obsidian FTW!!!
++ secondaary focus is breeding the giant tigers. so i'm eradicating all the other pets -save for a few breeding pairs that i've already caged safely- so somebody can still restart the breeding program when the need arise. i forgot to take a pic, but we have 3 tiger cubs already.
