Alright so my "Get water to the dwarves" project was actually successful, but some problems happened.

You see I didn't know water could flow out diagonally, so there was one space next to the pump that the water also started flowing out of. This resulted in both pumps being flooded with water. And with both my dwarves freaking out over getting splashed with the pumped in river water. Obok, The Engraver decided that leaving his post instead of waiting for the ramps to the surface to be finished would be the better idea; the wave of water pulled him under several Z-levels to an old route that used to be the maintenance route for the pumping grounds. His friend who was also manning the pumps, a peasant named Avuz Ukertulon, dove in after him to try and save the body.

Sadly he wasn't able to retrieve anything but a few soaked socks and a pair of trousers. It was shocking to see the peasant resurface and run for the medbay carrying what he could from his friend's person. We erected a momument in the Hospital for Obok, the man that allowed the waters of life to flow freely into the hospital well.
