XII: Thou shalt not attempt to drink magma or associate with magma in any way other than fear, respect, or use as a weapon or tool.

Even if it does taste delightful, thou mortal frame cannot taste the blood of Armok and live.

XIII: Thou shall not suffer Elves to live.

F*** your pointy ears I've my dwarves inside.
And f*** your wooden swords I've my dwarves inside.
F*** your bins of cloth I've my dwarves inside.
If you're looking to be killed I've my dwarves outside.

I am trying to make chickens lay bees as eggs. So far it only produces a single "Tame Small Creature" when a hen lays bees.
Honestly at the time, I didn't see what could go wrong with crowding 80 military Dwarves into a small room with a necromancer for the purpose of making bacon.

XVII: Remember the Goblin Christmas day and keep it holy.

XVIII: For any other day you shall labor and do all your work.

XIX: But the Goblin Christmas day is the Sabbath to your Lord and Armok; you shall not do any work - you, your son or your daughter, your male or female miner, your cat, except the elf guest in your towns. Offer him plenty of your wooden labor.
