trust me. it's a huge lake of blood. if blood was ranked out of 7 like water or magma, it'd be 7/7
and no, it's not my laptop that's the problem, it's actaully my slow desktop computer, which McAfee likes to check every week (but it seems like each time I'm on it) UGH! And the reason why it causes so much lag is much like pump stacks (though apparently, a better one's been devised). Even though the blood is already on the tile, the game has to calculate it each time it would usually calculate what's on a tile doing what. When you add up all the blood plus moving magma and water on this map, as well as dorfs climbing over other dorfs, it begins to add up.
Is Vladimir really that fat? Guess he ate away his sorrows when Svyatoslav died.
wadaya mean?

PHEW! That was close. Some miner accidentally collapsed a cieling somewhere on the hillside, where the merchants so happened to be leaving through. YIKES! The merchants and their yaks were BLOWN down the hillside (2 z-levels) and landed luckly only stunned. That could've been seriously bad for our reputation. Then again, wouldn't we get everything dropped for free?
Actaully, they managed to come across the herd of zombie camels that were waiting on the hillside. As the axedorf escort himself later told me "Aye! I took one big hack atats head. I swear, I heard teh skull crack, and I saw the brains oozing out, yet it still came after us! Now where's my cheeze I ordered a yer ago?"

The traders finally leave while Ingish starts work on his artifact. He used a total of 119 bones (119 from Gilafi and 6 from a pig), two zircon gems, two gold bars, and an olivine rock block. It better be worth it.

I was wrong when I said the traders left. A few of them left through the caverns, and are following the long staircase down. Seriously? You must be really stupid, or there's an unknown tunnel down there. THIS IS DELAYING OUR MEETING WITH THE LIAISON! HURRY UP! WTF... you're heading around the mysterious magma pool!

Ingish's craft turned out to be a pig bone bucker. Unbelievable. It's a whoping 131,280☼! The Speechless Spine was only 112,080☼ in comparison!
More in the world of art, there is an engraving the the Epic Duel of Centuries, starring the ant woman worker, striking a menacing pose while the forgotten beast is making a plaintive gesture! The stoopid part about it is that it's in Vladimir's second bedroom.

Great. Vladimir's been interrupting the meeting by storing his random stuff, and now that he's finally back in the office, he's throwing a tantrum!!!

Reg Vucarudesh has grown to be a child.
OH! You, Vladimir and your cheese. You keep on leaving it to rot in the middle of your room. Be smart, don't let it stink up the fortress...

Vladimir's first mandate as a count, and guess what! It's 3 crystal glass items, which is currently bugged, because rock crystal is currently unfunctional!!! woot! not to mention we don't have any...
Opal 27
I lied yesterday. We actually conveniantely have 3 raw crystal glass sitting in the corner. (i never make glass items, so I have no idea how to do it. the wiki says to make it at a glass furnace, but when i select crystal glass _____, it tells me I have no pearlash.
