OOC:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Fixed the Lava by dumping Water on it. Not for My benefit. But if you guys would have experienced Lag as a result, id feel bad :)



27'Malachite

During the Night of a Snowstorm, I had a rather striking Dream.
A Dream of Humanoid beings, of Snow. Twisted, and Bloated. With Antennae on their Heads.
I saw them Watching Us.
Thinking.
They Want Something from Us.
An Offering.
And a Swarm of Blood passed around Me.
And I felt Warm, and at Peace.
And then I Awoke.


4'Galena

The Adamantine Mining is going well. And Exploration to the NE is Progressing.
Not much else to Report.
Some other Work has been done about the Place, and some other Places touched up.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)



Just got to work on the New Dining Room.
Will Log more as it Progresses.



__________

The Throne Room has been Engraved. Soon Work wi...
Wait one moment.



DateUnknown'Galena

Change of Plans. We are under Attack.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Military has been Deployed just in case. Will Update with Developments.



DateUnknown'Galena

Enemy Force is Human, and of Unknown Scale. Theyre all through the Mountains.



DateUnknown'Galena

Estimated Fifteen to Twenty, possibly more.
Soldiers are nearly on Standby near the Gate.



DateUnknown'Galena

Big Problem. A whole lot more of them are coming in from outside our Charted Lands.
We may need to start planning Interior Fortifications if too many more show up.
Estimated 20-30.



22'Galena

I have Personally joined our Military. We are Ready.



DateUnknown'Galena

The Enemy has set up a Siege Camp, effectively nullifying any Trade or Migration.
We have to Sally forth.
And we Shall.
Myself included.

All of Us will March.
And those of Us who Return, will be Praised eternal.

Victory or Death.



DateUnknown'Galena

Some of our Troops are running away.
Thats just *great*.
The BATTLE HASNT EVEN STARTED YET.



DateUnknown'Galena

Ours was the First Casualty. One Dodok, a Hammerdwarf.
Beside Me, one Uggi Mafolnol went down.
Then Nix Dodoktan.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

How had none of THEM died as of yet? If this kept up, we would Retreat.



DateUnknown

Some of the Humans are retreating. This is getting Bitter. No further Casualties.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)



DateUnknown

Despite our Losses, the Attackers seem to have fallen back.
We shall take this, and Return to the Fort.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

What Alarms Me, is that NOT ONE ATTACKER was Killed. Some were Maimed, but managed to Escape.
I hope they do not Return.



7'Limestone

It is fortunate that is over.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I am unsure of our Injuries, but we lost Three Men. Two of which were known to Me. I believe one or two of them were Former Overseers.
They will be mourned.
Even if Nix was haughty.


OOC: If any of the Dead want to suddenly spurt Blood out of their Mouths and come back as a Retiree, let Me know.


We now require a New Captain of the Guard, Militia Commander, and Book Keeper.
I have Temporarily Assigned Nomal Nishkin to be Book Keeper; Minkot somethingorother to be the Militia Commander; And Oddom something to be Captain of the Guard.


OOC: If any of You want these Jobs, let Me know also. To "Apply".




9'Limestone

One Shade Ikudorren died of his Wounds from battle.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

He spewed up Blood, and collapsed in the Hall.
In addition, a Farmer with a Missing Hand; A Hauler with a Broken Rib; A...
Wait a Minute...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

This may have been Murder.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Both of those Suspects will be sent to the Detention Demesne at once, for Interrogation.



13'Limestone

Good News: I found several Human Corpses. We DID kill some of them. Their Bodies were just out of sight.
We killed more of them than they have us.



Turns out Shade scored a Kill:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)




15'Limestone

Someone just Bled to Death hauling Ore from the Caverns...
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I may need to send Soldiers to Investigate.
This could be a Problem.



OOC;
I WANT to go on, but ive gotta go somewere for an Hour or so.
That was the WORST kind of Exciting.
And also the Best.

“Well,” he said. “We’re in the Forgotten hunting grounds I take it. Your screams just woke them up early. Congratulations, Lyara.”
“Do something!” she whispered, trying to keep her sight on all of them at once.

Will do - That actually works *Really* well for Me, too. I just added a New Section to the Engraving Room. I might Burrow the New Shade in there, and get Him to Engrave all the Walls. Im sure theyll have plenty to Recount.

4'Sandstone

Oh look.
Cerol made Me a Crown to wear whilst I sit on My Throne.
How Nice.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Some Progress with the Dining Hall.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

And soon, a Volunteer named Shade will Engrave the Historical Re... Wait, what the fuck?
...Nevermind.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)








So anyway. Everythings going ve... Oh you have GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Heeeeey Stul...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

HEEEEEY STUL.



Were nipping this in the bud. He cannot be allowed to penetrate a Vulnerable Entrace.
Therefore, every Soldier will be sent. We will try and lure him into an Antechamber, where He will be assulted from ALL SIDES.

If we start taking heavy losses, we fall back to the Entrance Tunnel.
Then the Stairs will be sealed from above.
I will personally try to get there before it kicks off.
But that Tunnel was an oversight on my part. Vulnerable.
A Bridge may not be enough if that thing made it upstairs.



Date Unknown

Lets give this a shot, Gents!

...What the fuck?

Dont even wanna know.

Demesne is doing well...
And I have some Throne Room Renovations Underway.



Thats enough for now.

Work in this Damn Fort is nearly done.
Too much has happened on My Watch to Justify this.
Soon, I shall finalise My Work, and leave it to the next Person to Take My Place.



12'Timber

Great. The Liason has arrived to waste My time.



So Far So Good.



Fine, ill meet with the Liason.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)



You know, we really dont need anything from the Merchants. So ill just Order Cheese.
(Well, Mainly)



Agreement Settled.
Nothing Remarkable.
Especially not the Exports.



1'Moonstone

...What?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Anyhow. Demesne is being Shut Down, for now.
Perhaps a Future Lord will want to Re-Open it, but its Work for Me is finished.
The Halls of History are being Expanded One Last Time, to be Engraved by the Future Lord, and the New Dining Hall is about 1/50th of the way done.
The Palatial Residence is at its Finest, and properly suits Me.

There are some Complaints of an Inaccessible Stockpile. Yet the Stockpile is just fine.
Frankly I stopped caring.

Also, weve been made a Duchy!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There is still something Lurking in the Caverns.
I have heard it called a Reaper.
And I know not what it is.
But for now, the Caverns are Sealed.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Many Chairs and Tables are being made, that the Dining Hall may be Finished.

And a Hauler has taken a Fey Mood.
He has also Claimed a Magma Forge.

Blood Runs on the Hills where the Humans were repelled.
And the Shadow of Death is still cast over this Place.
And I Welcome it with Open Arms.
As do all its Followers.

The Merchants have left.
And the Mysterious Eminance of Stul still lingers.

My Work has been Extensive.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Those, and Demesne.
Which the Next Lord can see for Himself.

Our Troops will need to be Replenished.
And our Catacombs Expanded more than I already have.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

And dont we all Miss Him? Poor Sirian?

But My Work is not over just yet.



Thats all for now.

Honestly, I have absolutely no idea what the R is. Its Named though, and its been there since I dug out that Corridor.
I really never noticed it until after it was Dead - I figure I was busy dealing with Adamantine.

Also, if its Burrows or Closed Doors, it may very well be both. Perhaps not Magma Crabs. Yet ;)

Oh, I cant wait for the next Overseer to have a look around Demesne.

Who IS the next Overseer, anyway?

Hmm. I don't know if anyone signed up after Chilton. I'd resign but I'm busy with another succession fortress. Then another after this one.

Well we've probably mined out all of the safe adamantite by now. No goblin siege is ever going to see the front door. All of the forgotten beasts that showed up during my turn failed at spreading syndromes. What's left that could kill us off? (other than fps death)

I vote for the master to start a tantrum spiral.
