Bah a shame.  It fell to the ground as logic would dictate, now I have more cloth bins to dump in the unwanted/accidental imports trash compactor. 

As a side note you can stand on trees as an adventurer too, you just need to be able to get to a position where you can alt move onto it.  When cliffs were still around I could use it in hilly areas to drop down small cliffsides without taking much damage.  I would take a short drop into a tree then the drop from the treetop to the ground.

You can still jump onto trees from the top of a keep or a dark fortress. The problem now is that it's impossible to move afterward; it won't even let you alt-move.

My legendary-plus bonecarver-as in "a masterpiece every time"-is wearing a Forbidden narrow hood on his left hand, and a similarly-Forbidden narrow cape on his right.

I have no idea how.

But I know why. Puppet theater anyone?

He probably wrestled them off someone. Most likely your hauler. It's obvious that he's doing little puppet shows with the skulls!

I've always wanted to find out what would happen if you dropped cast obsidian onto some trees.

Probably nothing, because trees survive magma you know. But if you trapped trees in obsidian...

The thing is; trees are apparantly treated as constructions, so in theory it should be possible to drop a chunk of obsidian onto a tree and have it sit on top of the tree, you can then use that obsidian chunk to build a tree-supported fortress.

Well the obsidian would be considered flying, probably, like everything else.

And then you accidentally destroy the whole thing with a woodcutter.

Ok fine, cave it in instead of chopping the tree.

Dig a channel around the tree then remove that spot of land under it...
DO IT.

When you check the temperature next to fire it says it is burning.  This was also at night and when I moved away from it the temperature said it was freezing.
