Case File #1623: The Lost Colony
Inquirer Ryukan, Agent-in-Charge
To the Council in Tombcrest, After an extensive expedition and excavation project, we finally got results on the early morning of 17th Limonite 327. Our miners breached the site and allowed our teams to move in. After only a few hours of searching, we discovered the bodies of all the citizens of the fortress, including the remains of one Cog the Architect. In the hands of this individual, we found a dusty journal, in which this was the last entry.
From this excerpt and the conditions of the corpses, we can deduce that the expedition fell victim to a viral infection that wiped out the entirety of the population. The remains of one individual have yet to be recovered though. Derm the Soulchopper's remains where not among the other's in the fortress. After a cursory check of the caverns we deduced that he alone survived the fate of the fortress. As to his whereabouts? It is anyone's guess.
I leave this Case file to the Council to review.
With your leave and awaiting your orders,
Ryukan

Welcome to the Fortress. This going to be a "sequel" to the famous Towersoared, though in a more Spiritual Successor way than a direct sequel. I plan to begin later this weekend, I will be following traditional succession rules, two week time limit etc. The "goal" of this fort, is to live up to, and one day maybe surpass, it's predecessor. So huge towering projects that defy those who mock us, a military to rival the clowns of H.F.S. and to create one or two physical gods while we're at it.
