By the way, I reached our previous fortress in adventure mode. Our exploits and deeds are know even in the most distant human kingdoms. Most likely as horrible fairytales to scare bad children. The npcs mostly talked about dorfs dieing in various ways and "porcupines and turkeys freely roaming" in the area around it.
Such lag
Filled my waterskin with elf blood I found near the trade depot.

The pumps are still pumping!
This place is a menace!
1/7 water on the first floor and the Generator still pumping magma from the bowels of the earth even long after the fort was abandoned.
Corpses and socks everywhere. Can't seem to find any of the candy stuff though. Killed a bird with someone's severred head. My bags are full of named skeletons.
Ran out of blood to drink. Found some more on the ground.
All the booze is gone..

The machinery is still pumping just like it was before abandoning the fortress. The river is slowly turning into obsidian and anything that tries to approach the southern side of the fortress gets incinerated. The amount of magma on the surface is increasing..
Found our weapon stockpile. Armed myself with a green glass corkscrew.
Crud. Accidently fell down a 20z drop into a flooded part of the fort with multiple z-levels of water above me. Drowning and stunned. (it was the gearbox axle stack)

Crap
Restarted a save.
Got back inside. Found the remains (or atleast most parts) of Scruffy the 3rd near 2 crundle skeletons and mined gems. What happened here and why were his ears and hands severed?
Every enterence to the caverns seems to be sealed. Well, I will just have to get creative.
Remember that long 3x3 stairway I dug to flood the magma sea and caverns? The one that is just a direct drop from the river to the magma? I made a jumped down a few holes and dived into the 7/7 flooded passages and finally emerged out inside the caverns.
No wonder the site lags and kept crashing. The whole third (second?) caverns are being flooded. (+ all the waterwheels, pumps, magma, axles, assemblies... you get the idea)



Reloaded again. This time I got scared to death by the very same ghost Scruffy that has already killed a dozen other dorfs. Oh the irony
Why Scruffy? Why? Karma strikes back?
