Make a mental note to sentence the prison warden to death after you deal with the magma men problem.

Catten doesn't know anything incriminating about the prison warden, but he attempts to make a mental note nonetheless.

Edit:
Anyway, you probably don't want to stick around for the magma men to come by.

Well, I can safely say that my screen probably isn't being affected by a virus. The scanner took all day to finish, though. So I'm posting this later than I'd expected.

You shou-
"Silky! Oh goodness, are you bleading?"
Hey!
"Don't worry. It's not mine."
"But something came out of the glowing hole. I tried to run but my legs hurt too much."
"That something threw an anvil at you? What would-"
Oh crap.
"Magma men."
Scramble the militia!
There's supposed to be militia here! You didn't think we'd leave a path to the magma sea unguarded, did you?
You did! Where are the rest of the soldiers?!
They should be in the barracks.
That's just great.
We've also got an axedwarf squad that's never left their post. But I can't get them to come along.

Is there some sort of dwarven Geneva Convention about the ethical treatment of elves prisoners?

Silky was in luck. Cludgelchanted's prison warden liked her for her grace, so he kept her around to look at her from time to time. He even invented a little game to play with her, so he could see her move gracefully.
Otherwise? No, they generally get stripped naked, then killed in creative ways.

Or point out that the elf has a WOODEN bow.
And used arrows made with WOOD.
What about that WOODEN spear of theirs?

Maybe we should save the accusation of hypocricy for when we have to talk down someone with metal weapons? It'd be wastefull to use such a potent diplomatic tool on mere elves.

Ignore the elves.  Get Rimtar's hammer and keep it moving.

Soonds good. +1

Swipe the head out of the Nun's hands and play keep-away while you wait for the elves.

Edit
If you hide your wooden things, you should do so outside of the elves' field of vision. No need to add lying to your list of crimes against nature.

Attempt to bandage the tree. Ask the farmer to season the fresh corpse.
Alternatively, pick up the kid as a shield.

Block the forge with the corpse to buy some time and attempt to untie the leash

The corpse is too heavy for you to lift! However, you do manage to remove the leash easily.

Run!

You're running as fast as you can, but there is no light source here. You can't see where you're going!
To make matters worse, your legs cramp up. You’ve eaten too much.
You fall over. Your legs hurt like hell.

>Silky; contemplate how you've reached this point in your life.  Consider that maybe this fort is a bit too dangerous and you'd be better off trying to escape.

You remember that even if you survive this, you'll still be trapped in this dark hole below a lake, to be treated as an old rag. You start crying.
I told you, we usually have more metal in stock.
But a single bar of lay pewter? Are you sure there isn't another stockpile somewhere?
Hey, that's-

You'd rather not cut your throat open with the various bits of metal that you can see in the water.
