@katievm what happens if you just... don't pander to the queen. Do you lose the game?
(I'm curious about dwarf fortress but I've never played it)

@z Gotta admit I'm curious about what the result would be, but I figured I'd prolly find out the hard way when, after extensively trying, I prolly would fail to meet her demands anyway.
So far, though, I'm keeping our head above water, so shrugs
I don't actually know. Maybe there'd be some kind of crisis or rebellion or something. Or maybe she'd, like, die, and we'd have yet another dwarf appoint themself.
I think the main problem is there'd be morale failure, and I just don't feel like that'd be a thing I wanna deal with. We finally have all the dwarves at neutral or happier, which feels like a fucking miracle. We should try to maintain that as long as we can.
Oh right, and we also dug into a fairly vast cavern with several Z-levels. I've sealed off the stairwell that leads to it, just one Z-floor down from my apartment complex.
(If you're curious, I drafted some layouts in a prior post; the legibility is bad, but I think the idea is clear enough.) We went with one of the ones that alternates stairways, but keeps the X and Y positions, so the staircase is just in a slightly different spot in the rooms on floors 1 vs. 3. So in the hallway grid it's like, stair, stair, hall, hall, stair, stair, hall, hall. (Or is it just stair stair hall. I'll have to go look tomorrow.)
To my frustration we continue to have no sand. We'll have to try to bargain for some. I didn't see any brought by the elven traders, though.

I just realized I don't think we have any soap yet.
