Woundspeak is a coastal city on the surface of a volcanic island. It's had a hard time in the beginning as the all of the founders and most the first immigrants died of thirst and hunger. But after necessities and trade were laid down, the city began to flourish. Fishing, quarrying, and glass working are the primary industries.
I tried to make this seem like an actual town (for what that's worth). Housing along the shore line. Commerce and shops just a bit inland with little streets going between them. A fishing pier. Factories (well, magma glass furnaces).
I know it's hard to see with everyone having parties at the local cafe, but this is the Waterfront Restaurant. It was the first building to be completed by the city and serves every dwarf at peak capacity right now. Unfortunately it doesn't look like it'll be expanded anytime soon due to other expansion projects within the city.

Are those green glass buildings?
Submitted by: Dakira - 2008-08-15 to 108 Early Summer
Yep! Anything green is green glass.

You should make some ships for the dock. Pirate ships

In room 306, that was the tax collector's office. So i'm going to say he was brutally murdered.

Wow, quite a nice tantrum spiral (and fort)!
Submitted by: Dakira - 2008-09-05 to 111 Late Spring
Thanks! everything seems to have calmed down now. over 100 died in less than a season and immigrants are taking detours around the island. They think it's cursed, and right now I don't blame them, heheh.

Wow.. that's quite an awesome story.
If you reclaim it, possessions will take on a whole new level of meaning, huh?

You have to write a story about this fort!
Please. Do it on the forums!

Well then I'll have to get to that story sometime. If you'd like to read one of my older stories on the forums, check out "The legend of the Cursed River".

I forgot to add this in during upload, but a pump operator died while operating a pump. He suddenly "Collided with an Object", so I think he caught his foot and was dragged into the pump.

Awwwww, this is gone? =(
It's quite a beautiful city. Incredibly well-made. Well done.

Great fortress, one of my old favorites when I lurked the site. I know now what a mirthless pain it is to create things like this, so kudos on finishing this awesome fortress.
