Allll right.
Play time is over bitches, time to get things straight.
-What winter left Behind-
...or so I would like to say. Coming to the fortress, I already find native sources of Fun. a Recruit throwing a tantrum? Unhappy dorfs?*gasp*... Cats?!? After quickly checking if I was not watching the TV report for a goddamn train wreck (DF's grafics where better than those on the TV, all of the dwarfs look like humans and they aren't engaged actively on murdering elves. But I digress.), I started looking for the workshops and how the dorfs where.
Searching the fortress for anything that was worth of note, I found magma. Hot magma. Delicious magma. And then I realised that I lack the skill to do anything with it, seeing that I never handled magma before. Anything having to do with metal that my other fortresses made was with the fun-less Charcoal and in the end all of my military was composed of Wrestlers. So, if I have some time, I'll play around with it.
Now, this is where the real year starts. For I am Haar, and I will lead this fortress to glory!... Or the best way to explode everything.
First, we need a bookkeeper. I looked into the soul of those Peasants, who were moved against their will to the Military by the tyranic goverment. Yes... those peasants would be of great service to me.
I ordered some Traps from the Mechanic to be placed on the front entrance. It won't stop kobolts, but kobolts are the least thing that we have to worry about in this hell hole. I don't know much of the biome, so at least it will keep us protected from Snatcher Goblins.
And everyone is starting to work again, the butcher is killing kittens, the craftsdwarf is crafting, the fire imps and MagmaMen are leaving me paranoid and
...Goddamn it.
Ok, erm... I guess we don't really need a butcher since we don't have Hunters. And he is not really that strong--
GODDAMN IT. GODDAMN IT ALL.
Well, since everything has a good side, everything also has a somewhat funny side. Turns out that the Bowyer was locked inside a small cube, and was unable to eat or drink. The bad side to that not so funny now that I think about it side, is that a Bowyer will only reduce even further the resources of our fortress, since we need ammo. So, my hunter will have to kill camels with HIS BARE HANDS! RIP AND TEAR! I JUST NEED TO MOVE THIS PEASANT FOR THE HUNTING LABOR AND
...Well. Since I don't want any Tantrum Spirals...
Ha! Take that, weird events that I have no control over!
...I have to admit tough, if one of those two die and the other doesn't, the tantrum that a Buffed up Super Tough, Strong and Agile will create will be far more powerful than one created by a not so strong dwarf. But whatever, this is a damn /v/ fortress, we not supposed to thik like that, we are supposed to think of how are we going to build thousands of Obelisks that resemble a pe--.... Wait, maybe that's just me.
Going back to the fortress, it seems like love can bloom even in most desolate conditions. How beautiful. I will have to remember to drown them in magma for having a better romantic life than I do.
...That's not too hard, actually. Talking about romantic life, what happens if a Two Humped Camel breeds with a one humped Camel? They do that? The species actually hate eachother? They mock eachother? What about the Three-humped Camel? Do they really exist? Oh well, better stop increasing the size of my story so it looks like I actually did something.
Ahaha...what. His spouse died and he is still happy? Well... seems like they weren't made for eachother afterall.
So. After realising that I had no way to properly survive without water, I started channeling salt water to be turned into pure in a well in my fortress.
But something is starting to go terribly wrong.
My hunter just decided to die to a naked mole dog. Wonderful. And the now newly-named Mole Dog killed one of my legendary miners. Honestly, I'm thinking that not arming my hunters with Crossbows is starting to become dangerous. I even have some puppy bones to spare, so ammo won't be a problem... I hope.
Also, did someone just said Tantrum spirals? The thing that I was hoping to never happen in the first place?
What a great way to finish the... WINTER? I'M AT ONLY THE START OF THIS MESS? OH CRAP.
