Is Krosan still kicking, or did he die off at some point?
If he's dead, requesting redorf as any unnamed CARP.
I reckon the remaining dwarves of Deathgate shouldn't rest until the entire fortress lives in an expanded Hellbunker. Beds, farms, workshops and automated water tanks to keep them clean and hydrated between booze barrels.

If (and I stress if) the obsidian casting in hell works to clean up the magma sea leak, I can simply reopen it, and cast an entire extension to the hell bunker out of pure obsidian Z-2 tall. With a little luck, I might even be able to get us magma forges in hell itself. Then we can smooth, and engrave the entire thing without risking a single dorf in the process. I also plan to build the danger room as part of the waterway (will explain in more detail in the next few updates) unless I have a better idea in the intern.
You are still alive, and one of the MarkCARPs in training ATM and are currently SLEEPING in 5/7 water. (how you are doing it, I have no idea). Annoying, sleeping dwarfs don't gain states, so you aren't even a Dabbling swimmer yet :-/.
Melt down all the carpy copper armor and weapons and then smith new stuff. Sure, you'll lose a lot of metal by this, on the other hand: if it's not Adamantine, who cares?
Lack of furnace operators is making this annoying as hell, but I'll see what I can do. May have to draft the vast majority of non-military dwarfs to smelt ore and melt the old crappy stuff.

I hope to have the next update tonight or tomorrow which should cover most of summer (I hope).
