Appropriate Construction... of an Artifact
« on: June 27, 2011, 07:16:46 pm »

A dwarf got possessed and took control of a mason's shop deep in the bowels of the fortress near the magma works and current project mining a candy spire.

And, appropriately enough, he produced Nist Ungeg (the Fear of Failure), a diorite hatch cover.

Not the most valuable item, but well-timed production of a magma-proof blocking device that should be useful sealing off an area if that becomes necessary.

Or a device to shove into a nobles room so it boosts value and becomes functional once they have over-stepped their bounds by demanding fifty cotton candy left socks.

Should the hatch cover ever be required, build this dwarf a tomb around it.
