From the diary of The Mad Fool, Chief Medical Dwarf:

16th Felsite
And so, it seems, the fate of the world would be sealed not by the hands of Demons, but by us, the very Dwarves who imprisoned them.  And while the world burns, we drink and eat and live here in the darkness of the undermountain.  The world above is claimed by the legions of Hell, while the world below becomes our Dominion.

Exquisite.

5th Malachite
Ever since we walled ourselves off from the world, I have found myself with much less to do, the net effect being that I have had much more time for my experiments.  Unfortunately, I often lack for test subjects, which means I have had to go to moderately extensive means to keep my patients alive after their procedures.  An annoyance, but ultimately worthwhile.

I have begun to hear whispers, however, that the Overseer has begun a new project, one involving the magma core.  The others have not worked it out, yet, I think, but such clues are more than enough for my vast intellect.  The Overseer has regained some lucidity, I suspect, for his guilt has now driven him to burn us all.  I have seen no need to divulge this to the others, of course.  We are, as one, born of Moldath.  It is only befitting that Moldath's blood take us in turn.

Besides, I have been here for a long time, and life in Deathgate has grown...monotonous.  Melting would be a nice change of pace.  After all, I've never melted before.  I must remember to take notes on the experience.

7th Malachite
My suspicions have been confirmed.  How marvelous.

The closest thing we have to what some call 'allies' gets slaughtered in front of our gates. Unfortunately they don't transform into mindless beasts, trying to kill us.
Today is a sad day.

8th, Malachite
I've ordered all of our crafts dumped into the magma as a testament to the gods we have forsaken.  They will not buy us salvation, but perhaps our deaths will be quick.
Additionally, I've ordered our workshops dismantled. 

20th, Malachite
The ghosts of Deathgate are angry.  One stoneshaper has been possessed and is tantrum throughout Lower Deathgate, a child was battered, and the ghost of our comrade Baelor is toppling furniture.

27th, Malachite
Despite the Mad Fool's complaints, I've shut down the hospital to new patients.  He can continue his experiments until the magma takes it, but I don't need another drain on our manpower while we dismantle this fortress.

29th, Malachite
I've ordered all animals slaughtered.  Their corpses will be left to rot in the dining hall as sign to the gods.

17th, Galena
During my meditation, I felt a darkness approach us.  A goblin army marches at our surface and thirsts for our blood.  No matter, Deathgate is sealed.

In better news, the sacrifices to our gods goes well, and while many craftsman are upset at their masterworks being melted down, such sacrifice is a pittance compared to what is to come.  The magma tube is filling.  Soon we all shall burn in effigy to the dwarven people and, I hope, our souls may be saved.

Quick, check him for rum! The bastard's probably spirited some off to his lair office, to act as pleasant refreshment as his evil scheme unfolds!

It's interesting how Deathgate went from little dwarven colony to what's basically cancer on the face of planet.

I don't believe so.  Hell is so utterly devoid of demons its hard to tell.
We really, really did a number to the demon's population.

Maybe we could export Yuli: "Succession fortress too stable? Too boring? Just get our Yuli VlasiTM!"

I'm really sorry folks.  Time snuck up on me and I just moved across the country from Ohio to New Mexico.  I'll be busy the next few days but I promise I'll finish this beast soon.

Out of curiousity, are waiting for the next update with the new tree and combat stuff for Deathgate 2?
