It was the autumn of 254 in the fortress Isakbim. Population 132. A successful mining fortress, we had just hit and began production of candy arms and armor. Having repelled a few sieges at this point, my military was 40 dwarves strong. Until, that is the candy tube of death and despair was breached. 20+ demons poured forth. Sending the entirety of the military to face them resulted in losing all 40 military dwarves and 15 civilians. They killed one demon. The emergency civil defense lever is pulled and the fortress living and main production areas are sealed off from the depths. Ending pop: 73 dwarves (there was a birth during that event). For another year they work fine, until a legendary +2 mason decides to throw a tantrum over the demons destroying a masterful door or something. He decides that the best way to handle his tantrum is to destroy a draw bridge. One of the very bridges keeping the demons from the fortress. The demons pour forth, and destroy the fortress. The mason? He was the last to die, the demons took turns beating him for over a season before he died. Thus ending Isakbim.
I suck at writing humor, but it should be noted that 2 military dwarves gave birth during the first demon engagement, the babies were promptly slaughtered after acting as ablative armor for the 2 sword-dwarves.
