The Ice Mines of Kharzak-Thrune
The Ice Mines of Kharzak-Thrune
The mines have no gate or fence. The guards don’t even bother to lock the cells. The Mountain itself is the prison. The cold, the snow, the wyverns, they’re the prison. Ask any old timer, the best guess it’s 5 to 7 days to even get to the treeline, you’d freeze to death before that. Anyone asking to help with an escape is probably just looking to eat you when the food runs out. At least if you’re useful in the mines, the Dwarves will keep you feed. Live out the remainder of your days in this frozen hell hole or die escaping. The choice is yours.
