This is my first serious Fort. Most of the time I mess about with water, magma and do other Dwarfy experiments, however when I generated a Fort with the name
#Outrage Anvil# I knew I had to take it seriously. Lest Armok smite my dwarvenkind.

THE ENGRAVINGS OF ARMOK'S HAMMER
#1.
The founding of Outrage Anvil depicting the hard labour of carving its many tunnels and the Throne Room. #2.
This engraving depicts the battered arrival of "Susan" to Outrage Anvil after losing her parents on the way here. Rather impressively, this was the first Masterpiece Engraving to be placed upon Armok's Hammer.
#3.
Vucar the first Expedition Leader dies while playing with the waterfall 17z's up. He left the Armok Prohpecy in true Dwarven Fashion, with a river of Blood. #4.
The succession of Atis to Expedition Leader. She is the first Female Dwarven Expo Leader to arise for several hundred years and unfortunately has a bad memory.

Entry The FirstThe first port of call was to build the most impressive throne room possible, and so it starts:
The Hammer that strikes the Earth!And soon after it in the same Throne room, A Giant Anvil will be constructed whereupon the Lord of the Fort shall have his seat.
This is also the same Fort which had a 3rd wave of migrants consisting of just Four Children Ages 4,1,6,1. They have been named and will become the Prophetic Four.
Their Lair is being prepared deep towards the depths of the Magma Sea... if the Miners can ever find it.
Entry The SecondMy Engraver, Ezum Tangakatir; Seems to be obsessed with human Lore. Specifically the one telling of the tale of Kofi Equalcrypt. So far he has made 12 Engravings of Kofi and the Bears.
Also after a quick check in Legends it turns out that humans are rife in this world with only two Dwarven clans of one Civ, three renegade Elven castes, no goblins or orcs. The Humans also did alot of Surface Side taming like Kofi above.
The Other Dwarven Clan though has been taming Cavern Creatures a mere 100 years after establishing the parent Civ. And By Cavern Creatures I also mean the big ones... If I can find it again one Dwarf went and tamed a Blind Ogre.
Ezum has finally started Engraving about Outrage's History. The first significant event? The Lost Four Children.
Armok is certainly with me tonight. Seven Engravings, all masterful pieces and all relate to The Canyon of Colours, Outrage Anvil.
Entry The ThirdThe Throne Room starts on section 2 of 9. In the end the throne room will consist of 9 sectioned areas divided by moat. The Centre section shall hold the Anvil of Outrage. At each compass point will be a Hammer of Armok.Entry The FourthSorry for the lack of updates, been too busy playing / managing my dwarves.
Had to lock up my Milker cause he went mad. Then my Gravekeeper did the same luckily I managed to build a whole metalsmithery including ashery and charcoal system for him.
Then we decided why not go the whole hog so we made Electrum for his metal bars. He made this:
Impressive at a value of 50k, but I was more expecting a weapon as he asked for logs too.
Oh and surprise surprise, yet another Expedition Leader died. This time it bugged the Expedition slot too. So no new nobles/reassigning for now. RIP Atis.
Just had an annoying thief pop in and out of my map waiting for an open gap in my Soldiers Patrol. One of them left to get some Plump Helmet Longland roast (Masterwork quality ofc.) and he nipped in and out with the only child that was born in the fort (excepting the four migrant children.). I got very annoyed and took some drastic measures.
3 Grizzlies, 1 Black bear and a wolf. All guarding the main entrance. And tame too so they wont harm Dwarves or friendlies
More coming tonight.
