*From an old, tattered, vomited upon, blood-encrusted, slightly torn !!Journal!!*
As ordered by the king I, Brak Obama, have arrived at this doomed hellhole in hopes that it may acquire at least a negligible profit for the mountainhomes. Hopefully, I'll be one of the few who die a quick, painless death before this place crumbles to ruin.
As I entered this place for the first time, I noticed how much random junk was just laying about outside. Barrels were strewn about everywhere, various textiles and leather armors thrown about, and even a wooden bed, blanket, pillow and all, left to rot in a small nook.
I made a mental note to get someone to clean that up.
There is an acute lack of cats in this fortress. If the vermin turn out to be a problem I'll have to put some of the peasants to work.
There is a mysterious flashing statue In the center of the main meeting room of this fortress... It seems to be harmless, so I'll leave it be.
There's so much excess stone littering the hallways here that it's becoming hard to get anywhere. I've told the peasants to start tiding up.
Traders! From the mountainhomes! Unfortunately, all they have are metal bars and some cave lobsters. Eh, I'll toss a few mugs at them, see if they want 'em.
It seems we have run out of wood logs. Someone will have to go get more...
It seems we need more bedrooms. I've told the miners to dig out more.
On a related note, this bedroom design is dreadfully inefficient.
And not only are these bedrooms inefficient, but they're also in the way of the planned magma defense system!
This has to be the most pathetic ambush I've ever seen.There were several others right around the corner that I didn't see until they began charging at us.
Arg, these damn parties! Stop being lazy and get back to work!
Planning has begun on the magma defense system, and work on it shall begin soon.
Ustuth, our legendary stonecrafter, told me that his lover, Dakost, has been strangely withdrawn lately. To be honest, I don't even know who she is, and I really don't care.
Though I would hate to have Ustuth go on a tantrum...
Hooo shit. Oh shit oh shit oh shiiiiit.
I've never
ever known giant cave spiders as anything other then a mantelpiece or a character in some wild story told by a drunken dwarf at some back-alley pub. And those stories were never very cheery...
The peasant made it out alive without so much as a peep from the creator of the web. Shame, I was almost hoping to see a giant cave spider...
And now it seems that everyone wants to jump onto the web and get snagged. God I hate dwarves sometimes.
Wait. That looks like two webs...
Ustuth showed this to me today, saying that Dakost made it...
More stuff to throw at the traders. Yay.
The greenskins and kobolds have been rather quiet lately... Too quiet...
Migrants! People actually WANT to live here?
Our population is now 84.
Just more cannon fodder if you ask me.
I have mandated that someone make me a large gem for this really cool idea for a gaudy ring I just had.
Uh oh.
The wyrvens killed all the dwarves I sent at them, including several of our legendaries...
...
A wizard once taught me of this thing he called "savescumming"... I wonder if now would be a good time to use it...
The fortress is devastated by the loss of its favorite dwarves, with several dwarves throwing tantrums because of it.
*The journal ends there*
I was on my way over to check up on the magma defense system (which is coming along smoothly, by the way) and as soon as I got to the entrance tunnel one of our miners ran out with a strange look on his face. Weird...
Migrants! People actually WANT to live here?
Our population is now 82.
More cannon fodder if you ask me.
I saw one of the peasants carrying this around the grand staircase:
When I asked where he got it, he said that it was his friend Rakust.
Looks like it would make a nice addition to the meeting hall...
This fortress needs more weaponry. Because of this, I've mandated the creation of a short sword.
ARG GOD DAMN IT YOU FUCKING SLACKERS BETTER GET THE FUCK BACK TO WORK RIGHT FUCKING NOW OR I'LL RIP OFF YOUR GENITALIA, SHOVE IT DOWN YOUR THROAT, AND THROW INTO THE CHASM!!!
What's that? You have no job? WELL THEN YOU BETTER FUCKING FIND ONE!!!
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
Oh. Just goblins. Phew.
They do have a lot of crossbowmen though.
Deduk has seemed strangely withdrawn as of late...
It seems that a giant cave swallow has managed to fond its way in somehow.
It appears that the bird had not only somehoe managed to put on full steel armor, but also fly around in it.
