  • The vast network of tunnels and trade routes used by the dwarves to maintain control over the continent.

  • The automaton corpses still litter the field, frozen in the positions of their last commands. Some are rumored to reactivate under certain conditions.

  • Legends claim that hidden vaults beneath the ruins still hold priceless treasures.
