Remember that you will one day die, and your corpse will become the dirt that we grow our food from and your soul shall go to the sky before raining down as the water we drink. Then I considered, well what if the dwarves consider the blue sky to be a sort of memento mori? Like, even in the warm summer when the crops grow and new life is coming into its own, death hangs over your head. At first I disregarded the idea because I couldn't imagine a blue sky signifying anything other than warmth and beauty. There aren’t any explicit goals, and the only true certainty of the.

In one of my forts, I ended up with about 10 necromancers and various undead. Microline Edit This ore was added in the early builds of TFC due to Bioxxs inspiration from Dwarf Fortress. This is a little tidbit that arose from what was essentially a coincidence.
