So, upon embark, the game told me "A section of the cavern has collapsed!"

And later when I was looking through stuff I noticed an interesting item.
...
...
...
An adamantine scimitar.


I forgot what these things are. Are they omens? Am I fortunate? I can't rember for the life of me.

oooh a demonic fortress.

oooh a demonic fortress.

That... That sounds like something I should be afraid of...

[Naryar]

Not if you stay out of it.

Not if you stay out of it.

Considering the fact I have never encountered such a thing in my life and my curious nature, should I pick another embark location?

[Urist Imiknorris]

Nah, just back up the save and go look. Watch out for the undead though.

[Jollily Jime]

The question is: what would Urist do?

The question is: what would Urist do?

Urist would sleep on it. In a flaming bed menacing with spikes with a corpse in it.


...Then he would come to the conclusion that he should go and borrow a -+cat leather sock+- from his neighbors in the demonic fortress because his got burnt up while sleeping in the bed.

Wiki up "curious structure" but be aware that it's a spoiler.  I would suggest you go digging, and find out for yourself.  After all, forts are expendable, there's also a new set of dwarves - indeed a whole new world - just a few button presses away.  Enjoy the opportunity to be surprised, and strike the earth!

But just to hold onto it. Urist doesn't believe in new clothes.

I would crack it open and take a look.

Do it for !!Fun!!

The whole point of being able to make a new fort is being able to destroy it spectacularly in the end. Or you could just take up the challenge and beat back the spoilers that happen. Make a plan, be dorfy.

[Urist McGyver]

oooh a demonic fortress candy shop.

That's a spoiler

The "curious underground structure" is a very fun thing to play with. It's the 0.31.xx equivalent of the "Eerie glowing pit" from 40d. If you want a quick look at it use dfreveal.exe in the dfhack library. Tackling it is one of the most fun things I've tried in Dwarf Fortress.

You are most fortunate. I spent a week or so trying to embark on one of those without success & eventually got bored & gave up.

You should steal it and then sell it for endless amounts of booze from the next caravan.
