Slate, 18.
The siege has been repelled with the use of overpowered cunning traps. We caught six living dead of various types in cages and the others ran off. Even undead can be cowards.
Unfortunately, we were unable to prevent Zuntir the Outpost Liasion (and fish cleaner) from committing suicide at the first opportunity. He insisted on leaving immediately and ignored our urgent warnings that the trap hall was not a safe exit. Our expedition leader begged him to be a little more patient, but he wouldn't listen. One more corpse to bury.

Some farmer made an artifact. Now she's the only woodcrafter in the fort, and legendary at that. Not bad, all in all, but I'm still training most of the fort to be masons so they'll make better artifacts, among other things.

I have made a thing of beauty. I have packed as many bedrooms into this one z-level as physically possible. We don't have enough wood for all the beds, but we have some, and I'll start making the doors and cabinets right away.

Good luck assholes, the door's locked.

Several months later, I've decided to lift the siege. The military has been training and naming their weapons this whole time.

Here they come...
And we've wiped out the siege. No casualties or wounds, though there were some close calls. I opened the front door, designated the armor and weapons to be brought inside and melted, and ordered some trees chopped.
Then the necromancers arrived. Four of them, and a vast army of zombies and fell creatures. The surface is still littered with corpses. The gates were shut in time, but sadly, Ubbul the carpenter and Shorast the manager, bookkeeper, and legendary bonecarver were left outside. They put up a good fight before they went down. There's no way we can defeat this army the way we are now. So much for my plans for a massive surface contruction.

Another artifact. A stonecrafter isn't the worst thing to be.

oh my god
this fortress is full of blocks, zombies, and turkeys.

The blood thorn beds look rather nice so I guess I'll stick around.

. . . was this segment of the tunnels on the second cavern meant to be flooding? it looks as though a staircase was dug so as to breach through the stone into the lake. WELP
. . .
A cathedral of glass, yessssss, but it wont do to put it on the surface with all these rotting creatures stumbling about. We must make a volume of space underground, cutting away the loose stalactites, flattening the passages and clearing out the muck. Now fire the forges! We need bags for the sand! Get lifting, dwarves!
I built a small temple which has immediately become a huge success. It's crammed full of people, but hey - at least they're not having sex any more.

You will notice a huge amount of blank space after the second cavern- there is so much untouched stone.
bedrooms with slightly more furniture:

this thing lives in our cavern lake, apparently:

some of our dwarves happened to be stuck outside on a tree when the pig arrived. it took some convincing to remove them from the wet fungal fronds.

metal (non-existent on this map)is slowly collecting underneath the smelters.

a brilliant, little library, constructed by a previous overseer:

the captive were-beasties have begun to talk to each other, through the loam walls:

Id the weremole was possessed, which subsequently failed, driving him more insane than he was previously, somehow.

Obsidian died at the bottom of a staircase when a rock block was dropped from 20 z-levels above you by a careless dwarf. this was perhaps the single most exciting thing to occur during my year here.

Finally, my green glass 'cathedral' turned out to be more of a . . . vertical tube. . of glass. . yeah.

the final state:

It took a long ass time and I was sort of unimpressed with the result, but it should provide a safe place to farm trees and pasture animals. it is airtight, you could fill it with water if you wanted. . . the western side has an exit bridge, with levers marked accurately.
The siege left in the last month of Winter. I took a good long look at the surface full of broken arrows and rotting limbs. . and left it for the next dwarf.
if some soul seeks a succession save, look no further: https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=16129
