A network of abandoned mines lies a half-day’s march south of Enonia. From our initial visit, we determined that a clan of feral men live in the outer caves, and they fear the vicious kobolds who lurk deeper underground. Their chieftain has voiced his support for any sustained effort at uprooting the kobold infestation.

It is also worth noting that this chieftain seems to have no concept of treasure or riches, so it stands to reason that any loot pulled from the abandoned mines will be free from his claim.

From Tolliver’s Adventure Log notes (The World So Far): “We encountered a sloping ridge about four hours south of Enonia. This hillock showed signs of having been clear-cut at some point in the distant past, and as we moved closer we saw several crude tunnels leading into the rock.”

A second level has been discovered in the mines. There seems to be skeletons and some ghostlike creatures as well as clockwork crablike creatures and some dangerous mold. There are glowing runes in one room but no one knows what they mean.

Kjeld’s perspective: We’ve now explored further than ever into the second level of the mines, past the room with the glowing runes. We’ve fought and defeated many undead dwarven skeletons as well as some sort of metallic sphere with spidery legs.

Douzane’s perspective: The curse that affected the dwarves, their slavery to the dark ones, was complete. Do not read the runes! I have a hypothesis that the dwarves were transformed into the carvings upon the walls and rooms of the second (and perhaps further floors) of the Mines. The carvings seem to move with unnatural power and they express the pain and torment of the dwarves. Perhaps a great magic could free them of their imprisonment.

Also, there is absolutely no treasure in the mines, all other adventurers should leave this area of the map for Kjeld, Dul, and Douzane to explore without interlopers.
