So, there are some apparently non-hostile goblins (who I still suspect are bandits) loitering in this hamlet, and I found a dwarven slave in the mead hall. This bodes unwell.

EDIT: I've rescued...a lady? I think they conquered this place and enslaved the nobility.

EDIT 2: It seems that upon recruiting her, the local guards acknowleded her as ruler. Since they seem to be loyal humans, I decided instead to cancel the agreement to lead her elsewhere, and instead purge the goblin menace.

It was inevitable. It is for the best.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

A wizard has turned you into a wagon. This was inevitable (Y/y)?

Stupid dorf trick: light campfires to melt the ice walls of a structure on a glacier, then jump through the water before it freezes to gain access.

I can now say I have done this, but I don't know why I felt the need to do it in the first place.

In my current adventure, I raided a vault to find the slab hidden inside. I originally intended to strike the killing blow against the demon with the slab, but I accidentally 1-hit it with my pike. Instead I climbed down the spire to toss the slab out into the glowing pits. Unfortunately, someone decided to close the door behind me and now I'm stuck down here forever! (There is no way to get out, there is no exit the way I came, I tried retiring under a near-by village and I tried travelling to other dark towers hoping for a spire). Is there anyway to get out?
OH OH OH! Go back to the spire, climb up the wall as high as you can, and compose something. You should end up on top of the spire, I did this before!

That's good to know. I had to use a dfhack exploit to get out: dismantle a wall and nestle in it for a 1hr nap, then wake up on the roof.

Well, I've already purged half the gobbles, the group scattered. It was inevitable.

EDIT: Hunted down the last of the glowy-eyed bastards, and reported it to the locals. Yay.

EDIT 2: Hit the tavern in this town on the way to the lair. Yoinked some fisher berry wine to fill my waterskin, and I found an instrument that's actually used by one of the music forms I know. Yay.

EDIT 3: Aw fuck. Of course the performance using this bone horn thingy is pathetically short.

Now if only I knew how to set up a reaction for assembling worldgenned instruments. I'd need to uncompress the save.

Scratch that, I've just found a new way to get out!

Go back to the spire and light campfires (a 3x3 square where one row/column is occupied by the wall, so 6 camp fires) climb up the wall so you're above the camp fires and then release so that you fall down upon them. Now that you're standing on the campfire rest for a short amount of time (an hour, so the fire doesn't burn out). When you wake up you'll be above ground!

Edit: It's a shame I got out so soon, I've always wondered what's at the end of the world while down there. Anyone know?

Each map tile has its own random selection of demons. Its the home of the kind of FUN that typically pours out of adamantine pipes, though I have never seen a demon master down there.

Is that true? I ran across half the world to another dark fortress while down there, I only ran into the same 3 demon types. I'm wondering if I should revert to my save down there and embark onto some ' !!science!! '. I want to pick up the severed body parts of flame demons and sell them to merchants... I'll be back with results.

Demon masters are generated as unique demon types apart from the rest in hell.

Prediction: you're going to burn to death trying to get the flame parts to the surface.

Wheee. I composed a "passable" song with no particular subject that's of a more interesting length, and has TWO instruments! Both of them were available in the tavern, so...yoink. After getting weirded out by the tavern keeper declaring life to be, in a word, suicide...I then continued my journey to the giantess lair, and hammered the everloving hell out of her.

Well.... it wasn't a total failure.





I had hoped to see more flames and smoke! Unfortunately goblins are non-flammable.
