I need myself a dwarf.

Name him Who

You're in, and what an appropriate name for a child in a family with twenty some odd kids!

Did Moose make it?

Moose did indeed make it, quite parched, but quite alive. 

But Aldaris was not so lucky.  I did not even see it when it happened, but upon checking the history log after the battle, I saw this:



How the hell does a dwarf suffocate randomly???  I dont understand!

It took me a while to find the corpse, but I pieced together what happened.



Apparently, while out constructing the outer wall, the old Stonecutting Baroness was shot by some opportunistic goblin!  The bolt must have pierced a lung (or two) and she stumbled in agony for a while before succumbing to the mortal wound.

Brutal.

Farewell Baroness Aldaris.  If Baron von Montague's dreams of having a Baronial family with you were not dashed already, then they are now.   :-X

Rest in peace for eternity in your talc coffin...

Wait...

Who's that lying next to you?



Argonnek's dead too?  WHAT THE HELL?????  When did this happen?  Son of a motherless goat!!!  I guess she died when those demons flew in and smashed up the windmills last season.  I thought I had gotten everyone inside, but I must not have.

Damn....we're losing quite a few Armok worshipers!

 :( :-X :'(

Despite the sieges and recent losses of noble Armok worshipers, Urist puts a strong face on for her dwarves.  She does the difficult work of partying by her adamantine statue. 



She christens the day the first Dwarven Memorial Day, and dedicates it to all those she has sacrificed in her wars.

Sweet Armok, at least Baron Von Montague is ok... even if his potential cohort is dead.

Also... I thought Baron Von Montague was an Axelord at some point...

You know...I think you're right.  Montague was supposed to become leader of the Royal Guard.  But then I didnt have a royal guard, and then I was supposed to make him the head of the Stonecutters.  Then I forgot to do that and I gave it to Soviet Travolta.

He's just been getting screwed left and right!!!  And not in a good way!

Well I guess I can make him an axelord.  And Baron von Freden is gonna be a swordsdwarf as well.  I am still kinda against putting Armok worshipers in more danger than they already are though. :-\

So Im glad my old computer is dead.  Because Im using one of my moms old computers now, and it has a dual core.  Which isnt that great these days with your quad cores...but you gotta understand, Im a landless peasant.  All I've ever known was single core.  And that single core was HALF the power of just one of the cores Im running now.  And since DF just takes one core, I can run that shit even while Im watching youtube and working.

My old computer couldnt even run DF very well if that was ALL it was doing.  It would die immediately if I ever tried to do DF alongside anything else.  Even having paint running alongside DF to get screenshots would clog my old computer.  So this is great.

Im up to spring of 263 already!

He mopes around, wishing it was the 2010 version, so that he could journey to the underworld to bring back flesh balls and creeping eyes for his experiments.

He longs for surgery and disease...

I wouldn't put it beyond the Engineer of Death to create a mechanical portal to DF 2010 powered by the entrails of children.

Have i gotten a bunch of legendary skills yet? I should probably expand the cave out, and maybe try to get magma as well.

Still enjoying the read, as always. Interested in how the power struggle will play out when it all comes to the top!

The life of a hermit is simple and boring.  If you wanted excitement and adventure you should have joined the military!   :D

I dont mind the megalomania and selfish egoism....I'm quite the egotistical bastard myself at times.  We're just a bunch of talking apes afterall.  If they want to be a part of the story, that means they like it.  And Im only writing it because you guys keep reading it and replying to my posts.   :)

I wouldve stopped after just a few pages if no one read it, and it wouldve just been a memory of an interesting game I played where the fortress got killed by demons and the sole survivor of the reclaim was named Urist.  But now its the third longest and third most viewed story on the forums!  Woooo!

Thanks, you damn dirty apes!

Who's Journal, Day 1

Well, I suppose I've reached a point where I must begin to write, flesh out my life's story and such. I am Who, one of the sons of the noble lines within the fortress of Blockedlance. I don't see how one could call any of these lines noble, however, as they're all bands of scruffy fools. Those who are not in total isolation live in dazzling opulence. If those fools only knew just how careless such a life would lead them to become.

I shall make this quick, as I am running out of space. Carving on stone tablets of rock with my fingers isn't easy. Know this, Journal: When my day comes, they shall all feel my wrath. The bitch queen Urist, the mayor, the baker, the candlestick maker! The bloody fool Armok shall even know my name when my tale is complete.

Note to self: You are a master of puns.


For the record, read my journals as a stuffy British 12 year old boy for double the enjoyment.
