The Fall of Nokgoloddom, "Riddlecloister".

The saddest game I've ever played, I think. Found a magma pool, and was happily building iron and collecting sand to make glass... ack! Fire imp! Stonefall trap clonked him on the head, dizzying him enough to stumble into another, which put an end to him... but not before he set some mountain goat meat on fire in the nearby storeroom. I guess he was hungry and wanted it cooked... So, I set about building a floor over the pit... Ack! Another fire -- (clang) Oh good, the cage trap I set up got him. Will trade him to the first caravan to come along...

"Cancelled build wall: item blocking." Um. Yeah. That would be the stone I wanted you to use to build the wall... And since the area is mostly sand, stone is kind of hard to come by. Ok, start flooring the pit again, and use all the stone in the place...except for the one piece that I actually wanted you to use, so we could build the wall to channel the fire imps...

A dark gnome in the food stores! Activate the nearby woodcutter who was boozing it up... Egad. Ew! Oh, that's not right! (covers eyes) Body parts everywhere. Remind me not to interrupt that guy when he's drinking. (first hit flang the right hand halfway across the very large storage area...)

Ack! More fire imps! And apparently he got up on the surface, and set the (heavily forested) area on fire... (Aside: Fire looks surprisingly good for being ascii...) Activate everyone, who promptly mosh them to death... er. Man down! "cancels recover wounded: Interrupted by fire imp." Wuss! You're supposed to be an axe dwarf! (bleeds to death) Crud. "Cancels bring water: need bucket". Crap, I wasn't expecting a fight this soon, it was pretty empty of everything but vermin until now... ok, build me a woodworking shop, since the other one burned down... ...any time now, guys... ...really. Look, I'm TRYING to help here...

Oh, crap. "Cancels butcher animal: insane". So, a heavily armed and experienced butcher has gone axe-crazy... "is struck down". "Bleeds to death." "Bleeds to death."

Great. I've got one dwarf locked inside, with the hatch covers battened, while one outside goes all Jack Nicholson. At least the hatch covers are stone... "A caravan has arrived." "Crazy butcher dude is pwnt."

Unlock the hatches, and sad, lonely bastard wanders out and... gathers plants. Guy, I've marked the caged fire imp so you can sell his brimstone-smellin' ass to them for a right proper beating (and if I could figure out how to open the cage, I'd give it to them for free...) (turns off gathering)

Ok, now you go work on the stupid carpenter's shop.

(turns off everything but hauling) (wanders off and goes to sleep.)

Well, I guess the merchants will take a while to unload anyway...

Hey, he's awake, and he's heading for the depot... oop, side trip for a drink... and another drink... and sends down another to see what happened to the first two and one to keep it company. "Cancels drink. Unconscious".

"Your fortress has crumbled."

Well, after having had to endure a friend's decay (since nobody was moving the stupid coffins), I guess drinking yourself to death looks good... --Azaram 01:11, 8 December 2008 (EST)

Found randomly on the ground at a reclaimed fortress

"This is a well-crafted Pig tail rope. It is made from Pig tail cloth. The thread is midnight blue with Dimple dye. This object menaces with spikes of superior quality two-humped camel bone."

A menacing rope? --Azaram 02:10, 10 December 2008 (EST)
