The first fort in *The Dimension of Typhoons*

![Place](http://f.cl.ly/items/1I3V3R3J251q1r351C2V/Image%202015-12-09%20at%208.35.03%20PM.png)

Established *15th Granite, 125* in early spring by the benevolent @sshirokov.

Since none have survived to tell of my previous failures my own good word must have been heard.

It's not like they just **give** dwawrves to anyone right?

![dwarves](http://f.cl.ly/items/0i1f3I0E3t3922280A1G/Image%202015-12-09%20at%208.40.51%20PM.png)

This time, I've managed to take hold of another band of 7. They call themselves `The Uncommon Rock`, from `The Subtle Mountain`.

![subtle mountain](http://f.cl.ly/items/213v3p1c1d072Q1M212R/Image%202015-12-09%20at%208.34.02%20PM.png)

The leader, which was elected poorly as I can only guess, sees the majority of the band is disposable, which is a nice start:

![good right?](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1U0K132H2e08/Image%202015-12-09%20at%209.42.11%20PM.png)

The leader that `Viperglazes` deserves.

![us](http://f.cl.ly/items/0p2E0U0T41133c0m2H3b/Image%202015-12-09%20at%208.40.25%20PM.png)

We set out next to a mountain, which has always felt like home. The wagon parks not far from the cliffs, with a river to the north and very, **very** few trees.

![treeme](http://f.cl.ly/items/1i1r2d3o242G1v1i2Q16/Image%202015-12-09%20at%208.38.34%20PM.png)

We must do what we were born to do.

### 15th Granite, 125, Early Spring

![so cute](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/26111L160i2q/Screen%20Recording%202015-12-09%20at%209.48.55%20PM.gif)

We have arrived, might as well make the best of it. Without stressing too hard at the beginning, I grant work privilege two dwarves. Those who can mine, must, and for that work they won't have to carry.

I have my eyes set on a nice corner in the mountain

![corner](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1M3V2n2u1J2z/Image%202015-12-09%20at%209.53.46%20PM.png)

This will make a nice entrance, I think. Let's set to work. I'll cut down the slopes

![into the mountain](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0C3L390k2G04/Image%202015-12-09%20at%209.57.02%20PM.png)

then enter a lowered cave from where we can grow.

![in the land](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/053E2N26451r/Image%202015-12-09%20at%209.57.09%20PM.png)

The miners agree, as if they had a choice

![nope](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0u1R1r410n0c/Screen%20Recording%202015-12-09%20at%209.58.28%20PM.gif)

### 18th Granite, 125, Early Spring

I've slept on it, and have had a brilliant idea.

![open atrium](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1i0N0q2x030C/Image%202015-12-10%20at%209.57.24%20PM.png)

We're going to have a pretty baller area for showing up in.

The plan calls for a workshop as soon as possible, so we can start putting some of our stones to use to make doors. :soon:

The priorities should get things built faster.

![office space](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/391v3Z1Q1936/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.00.52%20PM.png)

I like managing dwarves by hand about as much as I like being on actual :fire:, so right next to where I plan the initial storage and industry I'm going to fast track an office for the expedition leader.

![work](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1U3y1R3w1c1y/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.03.18%20PM.png)

She's about to have a lot to do, and to great precision.

![quantities over qualities](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1b1F2W1d2D1s/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.04.08%20PM.png)

The hope hasn't been crushed yet. All things in due time.

![hope](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/2v2M2p1k0m1I/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.05.03%20PM.png)

Now, outdoors. The animals can graze a bit west of the wagon.

![west of wagon pasture](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0m152Z2y2p3a/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.15.03%20PM.png)

It's not close enough to matter, and we're not exactly covered in grass. The refuse and corpses go just south of that, for now at least.

![traaaash](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1Z0Z050n2V3H/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.16.21%20PM.png)

### 19th Granite, 125, Early Spring

Fuck fishing. How about do something useful.

![lolno](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/2U261E3f2c2M/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.18.21%20PM.png)

On second though, let's just remember that and get a fishery.

And while on the topic

![river](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1I2Q200p292J/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.19.35%20PM.png)

Better have a water source if we need one.

### 21st Granite, 125, Early Spring

I'm slowly realizing what planning benefits.

![picks](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1J0D2i2B3u2g/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.21.38%20PM.png)

I'll need to remember to make up for this vacation.

![jobs](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1t0r0D1Z0j10/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.20.21%20PM.png)

We're almost near a workshop area, though.

![the dig](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0t09080k2t0m/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.23.34%20PM.png)

### 23rd Granite, 125, Early Spring

![the mason's workshop is in progress](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/3b0I172F3x2D/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.27.38%20PM.png)

The mason is getting put down. Time to put some of these rocks to use!

Might as well set up for a mechanic, and plan for a drawbridge instead of doors.

![more workshops](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/2y3C272e2g2m/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.28.48%20PM.png)

### 27th Granite, 125, Early Spring

To start gathering all the woods in the yard, I'm going to start piling them in front of the entrance.

![wood pile](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/041P0k3f141V/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.36.09%20PM.png)

It'll at least give the lazy suckers something to do.

![work work work](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/3a1n412M1j00/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.37.39%20PM.png)

### 28th Granite, 125, Early Spring

![workshop](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/312J2E2U3b3d/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.39.03%20PM.png)

Time to set up the mechanic's shop, before the mason's shop is even finished :crying_cat_face:

![office](http://f.cl.ly/items/22043b1f2W1S3P1M3o2X/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.40.55%20PM.png)

The office is dug, too bad the lazy dorfs haven't gotten to the workshops, so I don't have doors, chairs, or tables.

### 9th Slate, 125, Mid-Spring

It took most of the season, but we can finally make our way towards management!

![office furnishings](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/3M3n3m240R25/Screen%20Recording%202015-12-10%20at%2010.46.34%20PM.gif)

Soon, things will finally kick up.... as soon as we can find the mason.

![wood](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/2m1Q2P3o3P0U/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.49.14%20PM.png)

At least the wood cache (:trollface:) is filling up.

### 13th Slate, 125, Mid-Spring

![chair and table](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1p293G3X1x0i/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.50.19%20PM.png)

We're almost a well oiled machine! I'm not going to wait for doors to get things started.

![claimed](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/412g280S3a0d/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.52.08%20PM.png)

And the general stockpile is starting to take shape.

### 16th Slate, 125, Mid-Spring

![yes](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/211M2P1U3d3Y/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.53.42%20PM.png)

And we're off!

![nobles](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1W1o0z06132H/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.54.04%20PM.png)

How nice it is to be a proper civilization. (Or so I'm told.) Might as well keep the momentum going by building things.

![stuff](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/41163V1n1y3U/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.55.58%20PM.png)

I'm going to need it soon anyway, or else these dwarves are going to revolt sooner rather than WAY LATER.

### 20th Slate, 125, Mid-Spring

We can finally put things inside!

![stockpile](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1C0R1k143u0N/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.59.28%20PM.png)

![of stuff](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1W2m2k1q011g/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2010.59.20%20PM.png)

For now it will hold everything that doesn't go instantly bad, but it means we can finally use the wagon for what it's best at: **decoration**.

![statues](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/040n242S2E10/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.01.03%20PM.png)

And while I'm at, every good fort needs a Quantum Pile Of trash.

![trash, but with science](http://f.cl.ly/items/1O3M1z1G1N0S2k1E1Q3Q/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.02.57%20PM.png)

Dwarves work in mysterious ways. :alien:

### 27th Slate, 125, Mid-Spring

Finally, the ugliest Great Meeting Space ever is finished.

![meeting space](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/072n0x352d0t/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.06.54%20PM.png)

Now the laziest of the group have somewhere to gather without having to deal with pesky sunlight.

![stores](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0G3e2G0x1r3m/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.08.02%20PM.png)

At least we won't starve yet, despite my lack of a farm or brewery.

### 2nd Felsite, 125, Late Spring

I am now looking for some place to call a farm. Ideally, a place I can seal off and connect with the rest of the underground network.

![probe](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/3g3M3N2w0x1F/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.27.30%20PM.png)

I'll try probing the fire clay to the west first.
There seems to be plenty out there, and most of around us is stone.

The probe doesn't begin for about a week.

![finally](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0O2n3r1X1D0p/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.30.16%20PM.png)

Maybe they like starving.

![not the best](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0X343H46261e/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.31.14%20PM.png)

There's not a whole lot to go on once I got into the mountain.

We'll see what's more west, once these bastards get around to it.

### 14th Felsite, Late Spring

![future farmland](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/202G1B063E13/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.33.58%20PM.png)

The expanded probe was succesfull, and while I wait for more to be dug out I can start growing some plants.

![plants](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/2n3X0z093t1K/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.36.04%20PM.png)

With a small place to stockpile some initial seeds.

`Bomrek` and `Id` have graciously volonteered to become farmers! Of their own free will and everything!

![free will](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/292K180m1i3y/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.37.33%20PM.png)

It was probably related to their love of wood based activities.

The first plot will bring us *Plump Helmets* all year. There's almost nothing you can't do with them.

![delicious](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0d0u0C3s3B3v/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.39.33%20PM.png)

The remaining plots are essentially a random mix.

### 19th Felsite, 125, Late Spring

![seed pile](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0a3D3C1w3H2e/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.44.12%20PM.png)

The seed stock pile is in place, which means I can move all of the seeds over.

According to the latest counts, we might even live!

![counts](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/2R2d3q032D1q/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.45.11%20PM.png)

![work finally happens](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/0y2t0I1E2C0o/Image%202015-12-10%20at%2011.46.00%20PM.png)

And everyone is actually productive! I must be great at this.

### 24th Felsite, 125, Late Spring

As spring comes to an end, I set in motion some more building projects.

![downstairs](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/094636343z3m/Screen%20Recording%202015-12-22%20at%209.47.50%20AM.gif)

I've began the planning of the second floor of the main fort, which will contain the cooking and brewing areas at the very minimum.

![farms](http://pixxx.wtf.cat/1y2l0S091d3z/download/Screen%20Recording%202015-12-22%20at%209.48.55%20AM.gif)

As well as the beginning of the underground farm connection, which we will definitely need to use in the case of a seige.

And with this, we've survived spring.
