Points of Interest

• Δ 20. Military Level
  Barracks, training rooms, a Siege Workshop and storage for weapons, armour and ammunition means that the fortress' defenders are well-equipped to see off any assault. - majic13
• Δ 17. Greenhouses
  Glass-roofed farm plots for the cultivation of above-ground plants. - majic13
• Δ 17. Trade Depot and Crafting District
  Protected behind a drawbridge and successive layers of traps, the Trade Depot lies at the heart of Zirilthol's Crafting District, with numerous workshops and warehouses conveniently nearby. - majic13
• Δ 16. Sunlight Hall
  This will eventually be a glass-roofed hall, probably used as a dining room, in order to avoid the fortress' inhabitants becoming cave adapted. Unfortunately at the time this map was made there'd recently been a construction accident in which the half-constructed glass roof collapsed, killing several dwarves. - majic13
• Δ 15. Noble Quarters
  Opulent rooms, expensively furnished and decorated with masterwork engravings all over the place. Each suite of rooms features its own audience room, dining room, bedchamber and private mausoleum. To the east are the public tombs. - majic13
• Δ 15. The Gauntlet
  When the fortress' defences are complete, in times of emergency the other entrances will be sealed with drawbridges, leaving only this entrance open - and pached full of all manner of unpleasant traps, which invaders will be forced to navigate. - majic13
• Δ 14. Catapult Range
  Catapults in constant operation in order to train up the fortress' Siege Operators, and also help clear the halls of loose stones. The stones drop into the trench at the end of each range, thus keeping them available while putting them out of the way. - majic13
• Δ 14. Fish Farm
  A failed attempt at a below-ground greenhouse - the biome here is too cold to support overground plants - roofed over again, and soon to be flooded in order to attract fish which don't do so well in the brook's shallows, but seem to flock to deeper water. - majic13
• Δ 14. Kitchens
  Stills, Butcher's Workshops, Tanneries and Kitchens in close proximity serve to efficiently process Zirilthol's cultivated crops and ensure a steady supply of food and drink for the fortress' inhabitants. - majic13
• Δ 14. Underground Farms
  More fields than the fortress could ever hope to need, providing an ample supply of food throughout the year. - majic13
• Δ 14. Underground Timber Farm and Statue Garden
  Tower-caps grow in this large chamber to provide an emergency timber supply in case of siege; in the meantime the area also serves as a subterranean park for the fortress' inhabitants. - majic13
• Δ 10. Underground River and Pumping Stations
  In one of Zirilthol's more challenging feats of engineering, an underground river was dammed and diverted onto a more pleasing course, the power for this being drawn from a pair of perpetual-motion engines which each generate enough power to operate a further five pumps. The now-dry riverbed has become home to a number of cave spiders who provide the fortress with a steady supply of silk, while the river itself runs in a ceiling-to-floor cascade through the residential/industrial level. - majic13
• Δ 8. Grand Hall
  The fortress' main dining hall is directly linked to the culinary level above, and features four glass-enclosed cascades of water that supply the well next door. A variety of sleeping quarters, ranging from communal barracks to private rooms, flanks the hall to the north and south. - majic13
• Δ 8. Magma Pipe and Industrial District
  The volcanic vent that gives Firedeep its name has been tapped to power a number of forges, kilns, smelters and furnaces which process raw materials into usable goods. The region is rich in copper ores and sand for glassmaking, but unfortunately no local supply of ferrous ore has yet been discovered. - majic13
• Δ 8. Minehead
  As a precaution against the (admittedly unlikely) event of encountering a demon pit during the course of mining operations, there is but a single entrance to Firedeep's mine network, which can readily be isolated from the rest of the fortress while countermeasures are enacted. - majic13
