I was going to make a giant monument of green glass in the center somewhere, maybe 10z levels tall or so. I've been camping in the Rockies (north of the smoke thank goodness) so I haven't been able to update. Big update next week though as a lot of stuff has happened :)

I did read that earlier, and think it'll look really cool! but couldn't help making the H2G2 reference, more as a joke than anything else. It'd be like shouting at the RNG gods "Come at me, Kaos! Yeah, I built a fortress in Hell. In DwarfFortress. What're ya gonna do about it, Ronnie?"

Sethatos basically constructed an enormous Infinite Improbability Drive.
In Dwarf Fortress.
Because why the hell not.

I recall him saying he needed to build a monument at the center of the spire to all the dwarfs who died in its construction...

Why not a massive sculpture of a heart made entirely of gold?

watch, they've gone so far past the impossible that ordinary possible things start becoming impossible instead...

that actually sounds like a normal dwarf fortress ending.

This thread is extraordinary. I just created an account so that I could say, if ever I run another ttRPG Archcrystal will be a location in the world.

The dwarfs who heard tell you could dig too deep, and replied "Challenge accepted."
The kingdom that kept dragons and waterfalls as pets, tamed the deepest caverns, and who made a paradise of hell.
A glass spire reaching from the very foundations of the world, the deepest bedrock, to the firmament high above.

I feel like this whole spire is just one divine act of retribution away from total annihilation... this is the kind of pride gods cannot abide >_>
