Overview
Rising behind the dwarven monastery is an ancient volcano. Even the elves of the Kingswood do not remember the last time it erupted but the dwarves say that it will vomit forth pure molten iron on the appointed day. For the first time in centuries, however, smoke has started to leak out of the ancient peak. Only the dwarves have noticed thus far, as it only happens at night and only on those nights when the black dog prowls the Glass Rapids (05.05).
Connections
- The Drinker’s Mouth is holy to the worshippers of the dwarven forge god, the Drinker of Iron, both the monks (03.04) and the ousted Father Dorek (03.07). They do not take kindly non-dwarves intruding on its holy slopes.
- Legend says that the halves of the Drinker’s Stein can only be united here (05.06.01).
- A being of soot and ash was summoned here (09.09).
Hooks
