== Overview ==

Off the Haunted Highway, through [[The Kordwood]], a sentry signals the entrance to a mine abandoned by investors due to strange disturbances. Using the enchanted shovel found immediately inside the cave you can use it on the rubble of the caved in section below to open a way to the duergar city.

The city is separated into a barracks on the east side along with a fungus farm, markets to the west, and the palace to the north. The lower levels to the south are the arjale mines worked by slaves, kept in line by the overseers and Sergeant Darksteel. Deeper still is a forgotten section of tunnels even the duergar stay clear of.

In the very lowest section of the city, the under wilds, a strange barrier should be investigated for signs of a stone drake

=== Features ===

* The lower mines are an instanced arjale mine allowing for frequent farming. Arjale is not a common metal and mining on the islands are level restricted so if you want to amass arjale ore you'd be advised to take advantage of that before level 21

== Notable Loot ==

Due to the abundance of guards which have several pieces of the nightforge set the chance to get unique drops is quite high. Warriors may want to farm this area a few times to get particularly powerful pieces that can carry them all the way to the next island.
