[NOW, I WAKE]

All throughout Summer have I slumbered, awaiting the return of the ice and snow...



NOW, I WAKE

Lots here: http://www.reddit.com/r/wheredidthesodago/top/?t=all

Here's some flowcharts for common DF actions.

What have I been doing?  Am I some shiftless runt?

Mining and masonry, mostly. You're a Legendary +5 Miner, as you and Cainad basically dug out the entire fortress by yourselves, but you haven't been attacked/gone insane/fallen into magma/anything out of the ordinary.

Presumably you are also dispensing Holy^TM advice to help Cainad and Nigel get through the whole adamantine psychosis thing.

It is horrendously cold outside, cold enough to make me rethink our decision to build so close to the surface. The ground is covered in huge snowdrifts, and I am beginning to envy the metalsmiths for the warmth of their forges.





Also, we finally struck the gold that the initial surveyors had reported. I've ordered the magma forges to start smelting gold bars as quickly as they can. Gold may not be as valuable as adamantine, but as least the damn stuff isn't cursed.

In sharp contrast to her lover Cainad, Nigel made straight for the subterranean workshops, directly opposite the exposed adamantine vein. She grabbed a handful of adamantine ore and raw iron, and worked nonstop for three days.









The masterfully crafted figurine depicts Gogira and the Kobold thief at the moment of Gogira's triumph. We all express our grief in different ways, and it is understandable the Nigel would want to commemorate her friend's passing. With the completion of the artifact, Nigel has returned to her dormitory and gone to sleep. She seems to be back to normal.

I would like my tomb to be filled with bourbon, please.

Alcohol doesn`t exist as a free- flowing liquid, but I could stock it up with lots of whiskey barrels. For full liquid submersion your options would be water or magma. Blood or whisky-tainted water could be done.

BEST GAME EVER.

A goblin ambush, and elven caravan, and a goddamn Minotaur just showed up within 5 minutes of each other.

This is going to be interesting.

Each "Founder" of Asobiden will get a large private tomb customized for their (eventual) use. Gogira's has been set up with an iron sarcophagus, plus iron armor/weapon racks and an iron statue. Please let me know what you would like to have in your tomb, along with what kind of material you'd like it to be made of and I'll get everything set up.

I know what I'm having in my tomb...

My decision to have Nigel begin working the adamantine has finally borne its ugly fruit. How many more dwarves must be taken by this madness?
