Liontower remains strong! 451 meals and it's not about to stop!
Legends will tell of us, brave disciples of our Supreme Benefactor, fed and kept appeased for the decades, the centuries, the millenia to come!
LIONTOWER NEVER DIES!

Shuri's Note: Liontower has, at last, retired at the peak of its glory, and after I pretty much accomplished everything I wanted to accomplish with it.
I envision an artistic representation of Liontower, the skyscraper-like building standing out in the distance, surrounded by stranger and ever crazier constructions, as if the presence of the fortress bent reality itself and invited aberrations of art and nature into the world. Lion faces everywhere, towers falling from the sky like meteors, moats filled with puke, dwarves who meditate to the smell of miasma coming from years upon years of accumulated gore and bones in a contaminated soup that lies at the bowels of the structure, the environment around it becoming ever more warped and deranged as the almighty Liontower is fed hundreds, thousands, millions of sacrifices...
Written on the plaque of this simple microcline coffer is the following:
"Zan Rigothzoz, also known as Stupidshit, misunderstood his order of going inside the fortress and instead fruitlessly charged at an incoming goblin invasion, getting scared and re-charging them six times to everyone's utter bafflement, before finally retreating into the fortress once and for all.
For his magnificent brain fart, Stupidshit has been awarded with a personal burial chamber and a microcline coffer. Keep being stupid in hell."
The last part has been concealed under a sort of masking tape, indicating the aforementioned Zan Rigothzoz is still alive at the moment. - Shurikane

wow... that is a tall, tall drop tower. At first I didn't notice the missing 30 floors, Thanks for saving us on that monotony.
Also what are those things at the top of "Cage Alley"?

Thirty layers of missing tower... you get to the top and it suddenly feels very very tall :) now where I have I read about that before...

Sorry for the double posting, but i was wondering something.
Can you traumatize your citizens, say a kid, by placing them beneath the sacrificial drop? Shaping their mental (well)being as it were?

Dakira: You're referring to the white things at each end? They're 1x2 drawbridges, which all raise towards the inside of the corridor.
This way, while the dorfs collect and replace cages from one, they are safe while the invaders go into another, freshly opened corridor.
