Construction beginning/end
Construction on the Eastern Reaches of the Great Under-Road continues.
It has been sixty-four years since the
founding of the Branded Legion and the
beginning of work on the eastern highway.
The engineers assess that they have only
finished a third of the needed work, due
mainly to the difficulty of securing the tunnels
from the demonic and natural enemies that
dwell within them.
However, the dwarves of Eastforge
remain resolute that the work will be finished
in due time. As a symbol of their more open
stance to the outside world, High King
Grimbol has even sought out aid from
adventuring groups outside of Eastforge to
help battle the creatures of the deeper
tunnels.
The echoes of the Crafts War still
leave their mark on the kingdom, but the
dwarven people have recovered and adapted
well to the integration of so many different
clans into their new home. While Eastforge is
not yet the power that High King Grimbol
wishes it to be, they have advanced
remarkably well in the relatively short time
since and may be standing on the edge of
realizing that dream of greatness.
