Is it too late for me to make off the wall assumptions about the dream and add bizarre photoshops.
Because if it is this is some major faux pas. (Also, pass that fox)

Red glowing eyes? Metal weaponry? Raspy and mocking voice?

Spoiler: Zoom in Enhance (click to show/hide)

It's a goblin. I'm almost completely sure that it's not even a little ambiguous.
Everyone hates goblins, goblins are constant enemies. Their eyes frickin' glow red.
And they're clearly on the map.

So clearly my suggestion is to find the dream goblin and kick his ass.

  dang dream goblins trying to steal amala's childhood.

Those goblins aren't unavoidable. In fact, we're currently completely avoiding them. The northern path clearly goes past them. We're currently at the Whispering Marshes. That means we've already taken the 2nd path and crossed through the Plains of Torment, where the elephants were. Though it's hard to say what exactly is where. DD only mentioned 3 places we'll be going through on the way. Those rings totally look like a marsh, so the area before it, must've been the Plains of Torment. Though if the green hills just ahead are the Hills of Foreboding, what are the light blue spirals and the yellow hills. I doubt we'll be crossing the purplish grass and dead trees, which is probably an evil area.

The concept of avoiding goblins simply by not walking by their stronghold is somewhat laughable. You don't go looking for goblins, goblins find you. Or to be less obtuse in my reasoning, there are hills in front of the copper gates, yes? There are goblins in those hills. In my experience, whenever you get a fort that has sufficient wealth, goblin ambush squads will show up to hide in the bushes outside with their goblin crossbows. However, because any good fortress owner knows they're there, nobody ever opens the front doors to the fortress. So, even after winter has come and gone there are still a bunch of hungry goblins with itchy trigger fingers waiting around the gates to the fortress waiting for anything to shoot, which (in my experience) is always elves.

Even if we hug the northern part of the map and climb the mountains to avoid going through the goblin hills, there will still probably be goblins lighting bags of crap on the dwarves' doorstep when we arrive.

(I mean, unless the goblins are dead, or conquered, or been entirely replaced by captured humans, there's not a whole lot of context for "Dark Fortress")

EDIT: Nope, the insidious goblins are explicitly mentioned in the OP

I see your point, but being that close to the dwarven fortress, I don't know what to expect. If their fortress is like the ones we make, we can expect a LOT of crazy things. And of course, above all things, I believe dwarves like making mass destruction machines. I'm not sure, if we should even expect life from there. Simply piles upon piles of corpses, to which ours' will be added by some crazy mechanism, that hasn't yet been triggered. But let's focus on the current events, shall we? Getting through the swamp, or perhaps even the dream. We haven't had a post for a longer time than I expected by DD's wording of the update frequency.

Wait, so if we do find these theoretical dead goblins, can we sell their corpses? I mean they might not be alive but could we call that bone crafts?

[ottottott]

I think we can. I mean... we have a dead elephant with 4 dead elves impaled on its tusks.
One of them is still smoking a pipe, and the one that tried to (a)rouse Amala has a flower in his mouth. I guess elves have independent jaws or something.

[stabbymcstabstab]

I doubt even if the dwarves are like us they would kill us we did bring them a titan and then theres Amala... We all know waht would happen if the dwarves try anything

Presumably elves are descendent partially from pitbulls.

Traditionally speaking, wouldn't we eat the corpses?

Amala would die ignominiously in a pool of molten rock?

Amala would be incased in molten rock, awaken to a nice bronze body and be in pure full rage, murdering every one.

That's probably right.  Now that I think about it, Amala is probably Cacame's long-lost sister.

This is the most likely thing to happen if dwarfs introduce her to lava, or if underground magma

Hey! I have been watching this for a while, and I just realized I've never praised you for it.

In short, this is quite simply my favorite active project on this forum. You are nothing more or less than a genius.

Don't ever stop being awesome! You are an inspiration.
