I'm about to load the save. This post is being reserved for my first comments.

Diary of Mego, Chaos Crafter

1st Granite 33


"No, you can't return to the mortal realm! You'll rip the very fabric of space-time!"

"Watch me."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A massive tear appeared in the sky as the souls of the dead fled back into the world of the living. It all looks so very different from when I departed last. Perhaps much time has passed since my last visit. Or, perhaps, much time will pass before my first. Regardless, I needed a body to occupy, so my plans could be executed.

This one will do.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

As I got used to my new body, an excited dwarf ran up to me.

"The siege has been broken!"

Uhh... What siege?

"You know, the Tigerman siege that has been going on for weeks now. They're all dead!"

Umm... Sure...

"Did a rock fall on your head or something? You're acting funny."

I have no idea what Tigermen are. I found out very quickly, though, after tripping over a corpse in one of the many, many hallways in this place. A thorough cleaning is in order. But, first, the most pressing question:

Why the HELL are there 4 different Forgotten Beasts/Titans trapped in various places of the fortress? I shall see to those being taken care of soon. I know from experience that there is one thing that will end the existence of any mortal being: magma.

This is certainly not the world I know, Aluorna. Oh well, I may as well make the most out of this trip.

Something about this place is unusual. I have faced evil before. I know what it's like to stand against the legions of Hell. This is not like that. Not at all. This entire fortress seems to be the result of malevolent overseers' attempts to out-do each other with their mad contraptions.

I like it. I think I'll stay here for a while. Perhaps, when I prepare to depart, I can leave my own mark.

---------------------------------------------------------

Just my reactions to opening the save and looking through some stuff. Nothing immediately stands out as being a trap, so I don't think I have too much to worry about. The siege ended abruptly as three fighters (sorry, didn't catch their names) took out the last tigerman after it finished slaughtering a cow. There will be good eating tonight in the fortress.

Anything specific you like/dislike about my storytelling? Let me know, so I can improve.

a tiger siege?  What about the goblins?  Are you using the right save?

ive gotten in the habit of replacing my chief medical dwarf as soon as he gains any notable skill in diagnosis.
It's really funny watching them do unnecessary surgery because of a wrong diagnosis.
the conditions were bad enough to turn a dwarf who didn't care about anything mad, that's pretty hardcore.

It's the save from the end of your turn. All the gobbos were dead or caged, and the only invader left was a tigerman.

i checked my saved file.  There should be like 40 living beak wolves and gobbos hanging out in a big "we hate dwarves" group outside.  i just checked my save.  I'll try uploading it a 2nd time this afternoon.  But you're DEFINITELY using the wrong one right now.

Let's go by a more accurate way to tell which save. This save says Granite 1, 33.

Take a closer look of the zip file Ifeno uploaded. There's actually TWO saved games, one inside the another. One from 5th Granite 35 and another from 1st Granite 33.
