Lore

Between the urban quarter to the west and every other corner of the region, the Redhorn Lodes is a labyrinth of raised mine-cart tracks, timber scaffolding, and mounds of untapped rock, all of it dusted with silt and grit from centuries of disuse. Rails that once led to ore-houses and workshops now end in twisted and broken frays. It seems the Dwarves who fled the mines sabotaged their works to prevent Goblins and claim-stealers from using the old infrastructure for themselves.
