Mindflag the Eye of Focus was founded in 6.
It's 10, I found shiny metal, and still no siege. Only a few ambushes and a bunch of thieves.
Almost sure goblins and badgers are plotting together to bring me down.

And now, got a cardinal goddess of the sun, sky and weather.
While it is fitting... I am extremely disappointed by my current civilization. :|
More impressed however by the (dwarf) god of the moon and agriculture. It... makes a lot of sense?

Dear Doren Blazeoils,
I don't know whether to be angry or awed by the fact you did, in fact, engrave masterfully a picture of the chief medical dwarf, Iteb Archroofs, eating cheese, in the future room of some infortunate dwarf, on shiny gem floor. He's not even your friend. In fact, he's not friends with anybody. And you don't even like cheese!
The Root of Creams, indeed.
Either way, I'm flabbergasted.
Keep up... the... good work?...
Your Overseer who honestly doesn't know if it's better or worse than the engraving of the dehydration of a baby

One of the triplet died (the dumbass caught an infection after deconstructing the floor behind him).
More importantly, a FB made of fire tried to get in, found a hermetically closed hatch cover, so instead, he went to find a freshly-captured reacher... in a wooden cage, right on top of the cage trap. There's nothing left of the reacher, nor the cage. Its nonexistent screams of pain still haunt my mind. After that short torture, my militia commander disposed of it in only two hits. She's lost about half the fat in her body, but is perfectly fine otherwise. As for the macedwarf accompanying her... he was grilled.
Caught my 2nd minotaur.
Finally, the ghost of a fisherdwarf (who had drowned after dodging a badger) caught almost literal shittons of fish. Can't make pots nor barrels fast enough, though clay is truly a godsend.

One recruit killed a rabid badger by biting its limbs off.
While I'm proud of him, I can't shake the feeling they're planning something horrible.

It worked just as well before.swatiskasI like radial symmetry, but for anything to not look like a swastika it has to be so twisty that it loses the clean look, or large enough to either outgrow its swastika shape or look good as a curve.

Also, fortunately, smoothing/engraving the walls and adding doors fixes everything.

I've designed a nice z-level to dig just for bedrooms in a way that makes optimal use of the space while offering 2x3 rooms to everyone in my newest fort.
Only when the miners started digging, I did realize the layout looked a lot like swatiskas in boxes.
And it is starting to bother me.

My hunting team is now missing hands left right and centre, what is it with these damn critters and ripping off hands!

You wouldn't survive, but you might enjoy it.
Kangaroos, magpies, cassowaries, maybe a crocodile (I haven't seen one of these recently; they're a bit tame), sharks, jellyfish, octopi, hundreds of species of snakes (these guys are Fun, note the capital F) including tiger, water and mamba, dingos, and probably a few types of trees (like the ones that drop coconuts on you).
Which reminds me: koalas. "Urist McTreeHugger has been miserable lately. He hugged a koala recently. His upper torso is gone.
Please reassure me. That can't be true. Right?

But the badgers will be badgering the badger badgers, too, so we'll actually have badger badgers badger badger badgers badgers badger.Badger is steadily ceasing to look like a real word anymore to me.We should give the badgers ID cards so we never forget to remember them as such. Then we'll have badgers to issue our badgers badges.
