ROYAL CAVERNS OF SPLENDARRMORNN
Shining Mountain, the western¬most summit of the Graypeaks, was the site of Ammarindar’s royal capital. Through centuries of digging and stone shaping, the dwarves hollowed out much of the mountain, creating a tremen¬dous central vault surrounded by several immense caverns. The vast halls of Ammarindar were linked together by a lattice of sweeping tunnels. Gently arching stone paths bridged the different levels of the city’s open spaces, creating a magnificent stone web of roadways.
The centerpiece of Splendar¬rmornn was the legendary Adamantine Palace, a castle constructed entirely of the black metal for which it was named. Most of its interior walls and ceilings were decorated with engraved images inlaid with precious metals and set with gemstones. Though most of the gold, silver, and gems have been stripped away from the engravings, enough still remains to show the vast wealth commanded by the dwarves who lived here.
The sole outside entrance to the Royal Caverns lies behind the Shining Falls, high above the Delimbiyr River. The city’s great adamantine gates still lie where they fell five hundred years ago. The invaders left little of the city’s portable wealth behind—in fact, the Harpers warn that adventurers seeking the ancient treasures of Ammarindar would have better luck searching the ruins of Hellgate Keep.
Splendarrmornn has recently become home to nearly two hundred orogs from the Lowerdark. Their leader, Ufarskaddun (LE male orog fighter 13), discovered the ruins two years ago while seeking out a base from which to invade the surface lands. Since they took over the site, the orogs have been busy ridding the ruins of undead and fiendish residents in prepara¬tion for increasing the size of their army. But Ufarskaddun may have to put his plans of conquest on hold for a short time, because he is now faced with an unforeseen dilemma. His patrols have captured a few tanarukksMon in the tunnels outside Splendarrmornn. Ufarskaddun has declared these demonic orcs abominations and ordered them destroyed, but he foresees a time in the near future when he will have to lead a crusade against these fiend-tainted aberrations. But since the orog leader’s forces are far inferior to those of the Scourged Legion, he must bide his time while encouraging other orog tribes from the Underdark to join him.
