In the past 4 years, it's mainly been renovation.
The dining halls have been refurnished with tables made of gold and steel and chairs made of copper and zinc.
The elves have brought a few friendly vermin for the zoo.
A few more stockpiles were dug out.
Rooms were dug out for the king, queen, and advisor, should I decide to summon them.
Tons of rocks were cleared away, and numerous hallways were smoothed.
The guards were given copper swords to play with. One died to a sparring injury and was soon replaced by a single migrant, restoring my population to exactly 200. His replacement died soon afterward, but a subsequent replacement hasn't yet shown up.
In the intervening time, I had a vision. A great pyramid, 23 Z-levels tall, made entirely of clear glass.
I must make it happen.
The foundation has already been laid. Thousands of trees will burn. I will not allow the Elves to interfere.
The foundation of my glass pyramid has already been laid. It will extend all the way to the top of the sky.
When it is complete, I shall fill it with magma. By pumping it in from below. - Quietust

Holy crap thats cool. How are you gonna get all that magma there? construct a big pumping tower?

I'll build a pump tower extending all the way to the top of the map, then direct its output into a tube that goes down to ground level, through a short tunnel, and into an opening at the bottom of the pyramid. Pump pressure should allow it to fill all the way to the top.

That's a fantastic fortress. Do the fortifications in the tower cap farm actually drain water?
Submitted by: Quietust - 2009-09-28 to 59 Early Winter
Absolutely - in fact, that's exactly why I built them.
