I don't think we have magma.

[thunderclan]

No Magma! 

Then what is powering the Magma Forgeworks? and Legolord's Glass Furnace?

We've been using Magma for a few years now Hawkfrost, where have you been? 

[Hawkfrost]

Reading far too many community forts at the same time.
Alright, make the water magma then, much cooler.

[thunderclan]

Much more Dwarven to, as well as Flamebannerian

[Heron TSG]

if we had to use water as well, we could make it shoot out cow calves, steam, and obsidian!

[sir diesalot]

That would be the most dwarven tree ever.

That is all.

[thunderclan]

Later then I said but a new update anyway. Enjoy

20th Malachite: Fireheart's Journal

Several new members of Flamebanner and some name changes today.

First Newb gave birth to a girl she has decided to name Rith Sternwound.

Shortly after Jillian gave birth to a daughter she named Iton Pagebudded

Then Legolord and his wife Vabok came to me. Vabok was sick of being confused with the Warrior and requested that her name be changed to Igorina. Legolord requested that the titles of his 3 children be changed to Henchman/Woman.

25th Malachite

Fireheart stood looking over a set of blueprints with Orwen while Korgan directed the haulers as they carried stones up to the wall.

"This wall extension should be perfect if we are ever forced to seal the gates on attackers. Iton will be able to fire on invaders without risking himself. And Hexed can finally have that Catapult he was requesting."

Looking up from the blueprints they could see the fortificatifications being set on the wall.

14th Galena

Kikrost listened to the usual chorus of growls, roars and barks as she ascended the stairs to the breeding center with the days feed. Knowing that all the animals were safely in their pens she was unprepared for the Wolf Puppy that ran past her down the stairs. Turning to watch the creature vanish into the hallway she was knocked to the ground as another dozen young Wolves and Puppies rushed around and over her on their way downstairs. After standing and spitting shedded fur out of her mouth Kikrost continued on her way deciding that someone else could handle the Wolves.
************
Cog was busily hauling bags of sand for Legolord's Furnace from the surface as he reflected on how boring the job was. When the escaped Wolves ran by he acted instinctivily. Dropping the bag he was carrying he grabbed a passing Puppy and rushed upstairs to the long unused Kennels.
************
Fireheart was just preparing to dig into one of Skid's mountain goat roasts when his door opened and Cog stepped inside. "Sorry to interrupt Fireheart but I had a request to make." "Alright Cog." Fireheart answered as he pushed his meal aside. "But make it quick."

"I want to switch from hauling sand for the furnace to training Wolves for war." Cog quickly said. "War Wolves?" Fireheart asked, the familiar look of interest appearing in his eyes. "Very well Cog. Train the Wolves, start with the ones that escaped the Breeding Center."

"Thank you Fireheart. You won't regret this." Cog said as he turned to leave.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes you heard right. We now have several War Wolves guarding the fortress, including 2 chained outside the Hotel gates...to gold chains. Further update soon.

[Hawkfrost]

First Newb gave birth to a girl she has decided to name Rith Sternwound.

Wait...
Newb's last name is Sternwound?
That doesn't bode well.

[thunderclan]

No, the last names of Children don't match that of the Parents

Newb's last name is Lusterclasp

[Hawkfrost]

No, the last names of Children don't match that of the Parents

Newb's last name is Lusterclasp

Well, then I fear for the child.
Keep an eye on that one.

The rest of todays update

18th Galena: Fireheart's Journal

Orwen gave birth to a girl today. She named her Ushat Swordmartyrs.

1st Limestone

A party was in full swing to celebrate Orwen and Akhier's eldest daughter Reg Wallfield reaching adulthood. As was tradition Reg was asked if she wished to go into a particular trade. Almost immedietly she answered that she was going to follow her Mother into the Masonry trade. As Korgan came forward to welcome her to the trade and others followed to congratulate the young Dwarf Barbarossa wrote Reg's decision and new position in the fortress down in his book.

Fireheart's Journal: 11th Limestone

Skid broke the line of girls born into Flamebanner recently by giving birth to a boy. She named him Iteb Glenpaddle.

I also finally found the time to dig out a space across from the Barracks for a Siege Workshop so that Hexed can build his Catapult.

The wall walk is finished and now Orwen, Korgan and Reg are busily installing the fortifications. Once that is complete we'll add the platform for the Catapult.

12th Limestone

Rakust Asteshoshosh, the Liason from the Mountainhomes stopped short as he passed through the gates of Flamebanner and was nearly knocked over by the wagons behind him. "Fireheart?" Rakust asked, not believing his eyes as he saw the Flamebanner leader standing outside the Trade Depot with several Dwarves behind him. "We recieved word that you were dead. Killed by a Goblin assassin."

"You heard half right. An assassin did try to kill me. I was uncouncious for about 2 monthes. But I'm fine now and have been for some time. Now come along and we'll discuss our agreement for next year. Your merchants will be dealing with our new Trademaster, Newb Lusterclasp." Nodding to Fireheart Newb walked into the Depot to await the rest of the merchants.
***********
Trade Agreement: 12th Limestone

Flamebanner requests meat, alcohol, barrels, metal bars and stone.
Will provide more Goblin clothing in exchange.

17th Limestone

Newb's Trade Log

We managed to trade several bins of Goblin clothing for 2 dozen bars of various metal, a number of stone blocks of various types, several barrels of alcohol and 2 cows in cages.

20th Limestone

Tirist the Weaver was smiling as he headed past the Sand Pit with a bundle of Cave Spider webs in hand. Having seen the terrible wear on the clothes of the Flamebanner Dwarves...or at least those that still had clothes he was determined to make enough cloth to clothe everybody in silk.

Stopping to collect several webs that were trailing in the sand he saw the light glinting off the armor of the Goblins that were rising from the grass around him. He could see 2 Wrestlers, 2 Axegobs and a Swordgob. He felt that he could make it to the gates with no more then a few scratchs. Then he saw the one leading these Goblins. He was covered in iron armor which had several patches of dried blood and mud on it. The axe he wielded was far bigger then any he had ever seen before.

As he caught a glimpse of the red spirals on the armor or body of each Goblin he realized that he might not get out of this in one piece...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Have to leave you guys in suspense for now. Enjoy.

[hexedmagica]

Warwolves? Gobbos attacking? Sounds like there's going to be more blood.

[LegoLord]

Maybe we need some more defense around the sand pit.  We keep losing people that way

[sonerohi]

Build up walls and make a tunnel to cut it off from the outside.
