Points of Interest

• Δ 17. The grand stocks and the beginnings of a grand dining hall
  Here our stocks accomadate all that our dwarves can produce, and slowly we build chairs and tables and doors for a truly grand hall to feast in. My hope is that it will take the worries off of the other dwarves minds. - sonerohi
• Δ 16. Our soldiers and upper pumps
  Our soldiers stand vigil constantly in small nooks here, ever looking for thiefs and ambushers. Up north are pumps that can flood the valley swifter than a dwarf can drink a mug. - sonerohi
• Δ 16. Principal bridge and fort crossroads
  We have a large barracks in the north, a cache of gems, gleaming metals, and the narrow armors worn by goblins, and the weapons they brough to use against us. They will be melted down to make iron which we shall make into furniture, and combine with the abundant marble stone for making steel. The lever on the left of the forge will cause three copper bars to shoot into the wall on the left side of the pit, blocking in and out movement. The lever on the right causes many spikes to shoot up from the ground at the entrance, impaling attackers. - sonerohi
• Δ 15. Entrance may be denied to some customers
  While the tunnel on the left truly enters our fort, it is chock full of spikes that can be raised with the lever near our main forge. The bridge here can raise up so that when we turn on the upper stack of pumps, our entrance won't flood. We haven't tested it on a live subject, but it looks effective enough given how swiftly it floods. - sonerohi
• ¶ 15. Initial wagon
  We never did break down ol' Bessie, she served the founders well in coming here. A less bold dwarf might have carved into the northern hills, but the expedition leader was fearless and creative, and he imagined the complex you see today. Rumours tell that while he may be retired from leading, he is still hard at work with diagrams for how to create a drainage system and waterfall for the grand lake. - sonerohi
• Δ 15. The fort's red heart
  A cinnabar depot, surrounded by four craftsdwarves shops. To the nort and south one can see the small, downwards turning corners that lead oneself towards the depot from the forges above. Alternatively, one could use the convenient stairs by the depot. To the west is a microcline lever that controls a bridge at the entrance, a statue commemorating three dwarves lost to the bottomless pit, and a marble lever that controls a flooding trap. We have a well, and a magnificent lake, with the wagons coming in from the downward area to the west. - sonerohi
• Δ 14. The fortress wheel
  To the west is where one comes down from the depot, and descends to a bridge that takes you under the lake. After crossing, you go up the central ramps to the east, down the corridor, and up the ramps at either end to come up in the mechanics cornering that can be seen from the 'The forts red heart' POI. The lake is merely a reroute of the brook. Housing is being worked on, albeit slowly, in the many rooms ringing the lake. I have my office here, with magnificent glass windows looking into our lake. The stairs across the way lead up to the depot, while the stairs north-east and south-est lead down into a tunnel that will take you into our meeting hall, and soon to-be forgery. - sonerohi
• Δ 13. Emergency lever and other such things.
  This lever will raise or retract every bridge in this fortress, should the marauding goblins and orcs ever breach our defenses. The stairs right next to it lead into the party hall, the ramps directly on the other side of it lead into the workshop hall. One can see the webs of a giant cave spider, which maimed our chief miner next to that pillar. The pillar itself is placed there to keep water flooding out of our lake, for the floor section above it was never placed due to a miscalculation. Following the bridge further west leads to ramps that will take one up two levels to the depot. - sonerohi
• Δ 12. Party hardy!
  Here our dwarves may relax after a hard days work, and the proximity to the magma pipe, in adition to magma channels running below the room, keeps our dwarves comfortably warm even in the depths of winter. The north room will soon become 2 new smelters, a new forge, and a new glass furnace, all powered by magma. - sonerohi
• Δ 1. A taste of what is to come
  Smoke and miasma pour out through even the tiniest sliver in the walls, no doubt the demons grow impatient, killing and burning all that are trapped inside as they slowly break through our seal. - sonerohi
• Δ The lowest bowels of the earth...
  It was here that our miners chanced upon the pits of hell while digging out microcline for a construction. Designations were quickly halted, and one braver miner bricked up the hole in the wall. Every month a scout runs down to check the masonry, and each month the news is grave. The crack is spreading... - sonerohi
