• ¶ 172. Welcome to Syrupurns
  On the surface, Syrupurns appears as little more than a pair of holes dug into the sandy hillside, although sharp eyes may detect the line of cage traps that bisect the area. The pools of blood and vomit and the piles of trash that litter the map are much more indicative of the presence a dwarven fortress.
  
  Normally, the only exterior structure is the trade depot, shown here occupied by the caravan from Urist Zalis, the Dagger of Wards. However, in an attempt to free up cages for the many traps, a few dozen have been placed outside, and are in the process of being linked to levers. If a siege or another caravan were to arrive, the levers could be pulled at an opportune moment, releasing the dwarven zombies and essentially dumping the undead problem onto someone else.
  
  Inside the northern entrance is the trapped corridor. It is essentially in place to ensure that I can capture "interesting" enemies that arrive. The southern entrance leads to the finished good and furniture stockpiles, which are - at the moment - literally overflowing. - fidelcowstro
• Δ 171. Magnetite Hall
  The current dining hall in Syrupurns is hewn from a whole magnetite cluster. It is lined with coffins, which are being placed as quickly as they can be produced - as you can see, the refuse/graveyard stockpile is quite full. The constant sieges of undead bring with them hordes of dwarven zombies, which - due to the dwarves' particular preference regarding burial rites - must be interred into coffins along with the fortress-dwelling dwarves.
  
  To the south are the quarters of Ber Rungworked, the captain of the guard. A little further south of that is the mayoral suite, currently occupied by Reg Labormurder, the original expedition leader and the current narrator of the tale. - fidelcowstro
• Δ 48. Megaproject Plans
  It is difficult, if not impossible, to view the plans I have laid (in the form of designations) for the excavation megaproject of Syrupurns in their entirety. Essentially, the currently designations are the outline of a hexagonal pyramid which will form - in part, at least - the roof of the great cavern.
  
  It will then extend further down as a hexagonal prism, with various constructions and other features designed as the project continues.
  
  I hope that it will look spectacular in a 3D visualizer. - fidelcowstro
• Δ 169. Industrial Quarter
  Currently, most of Syrupurns industries operate out of this chamber, which is (like the dining hall) hewn from a large magnetite cluster. In the animal stockpile at the north end are a few Blizzard Men, which the goblins brought with them in a previous siege.
  
  Also, lined up against the east wall are four caged necromancers, whose fates remain ambiguous. In all likelihood, they will be used as tools in some large deathtrap or other incredibly dwarven bit of engineering. - fidelcowstro
• Δ 169. The Imprisoned Master
  In this chamber is imprisoned Nagnod Mountainpulp the Granite Crystalline Iron, master of the Scoured Spider, the goblin civilization that has been laying siege to Syrupurns. He was captured with no small difficulty - while he was held in place in the trap corridor near the surface (having been walled in), this trap was excavated.
  
  The individual chambers were separated by doors, which Nagnod easily crushed as he swept through the tunnel. However, the two bridges were raised, removing any route for him to escape. The twin pits that were covered with bridges are 3 z-levels deep, and sealed with constructed walls at their bottom.
  
  It is here that Nagnod will reside, until the dwarves of Syrupurns have a use for him. - fidelcowstro
• Δ 167. Defense Chimney
  These bridges span a 37 z-level deep pit. When construction is finished, each of the four layers of bridges will be linked to separate levers, so that they may be retracted or extended at will.
  
  This trap will form the primary defense of Syrupurns until such a time as another may be deemed constructed. - fidelcowstro
