The Hills of Mokyll

To the east of the town of Silverhaven, the Hills of Mokyll roll away like the sheets on an unmade bed. Home to dwarfs since anyone can remember, it is also home to many other creatures, both above and below the surface. At the westernmost edge lies the small town Falcon's Hollow which is run by a lumber consortium hell bent on making as much from the local woodland as it can. Leaving here and following the River Foam upwards brings you to the village of Dunlanding, home of the Greybeard Clan. The outer village serves mainly as a trading post and houses many excellent inns and taverns to house the merchants and other travellers who come here. Beneath the cliffs the caverns stretch further than even the current inhabitants realize. Much of what lies below has been blocked off since before the Dwarfen Seclusion although some tomes speak of a great sealed gate, behind which lie unspeakable horrors and ancient evils. Above the soil and in the light of the sun the land is at peace. It has been many a year since the hill giants were routed, although remnants of their forces litter the land raiding smallholdings and causing trouble for the local hill farmers. Orcs and other Svartalfar regularly mass into larger groups but recently they seem to have become better organised, as if there was a new power at play unknown to those in more civilized dwellings.
