Alliance of Five Crowns

The alliance consists of five dwarven nations in the Limul-torish Mountains. Starting from the western part of the mountains and ending in the eastern parts:

• Osor-ishash - Their lands in the west are noted for being instrumental to their trade with the western parts of the empire, due to access to the Ovlen Gulf. They continued to be the merchant kingdom of the alliance.
• Osor-ushil - Called the ice dwarves by their bearded cousins, as they feel the most "free" in cold weather. Their lands are close to the Mordland and were on friendly terms with Mordavia before it lost its control over its snowstorms. Now, they facilitate much of their trade with the rest of the world.
• Osor-arzes - The "leaders" of the alliance. The kingdom lies in the center of the mountains. Their fortresses were key in creating the ancient alliance with the Divine Empire as well as the current one.
• Osor-eren - Called the "Rebuilders" (or Ka-Abanan in dwarven) by their cousins. After the alliance was signed, they started working on rebuilding the Dawi Way and were able to repair most of it under the Limul-torish Mountains in under just a few decades.
• Osor-egul - They became the "watchers" of the alliance. Trying to keep the dwarves from killing each other again, making them the mediators almost always. Now, they keep a close eye on the Gollubash kingdom as they feel that they let down their brethren by not stoping these monsters before.

History

The Limul-torish Mountains or the Gold Crown Mountains were always the home of the dwarven race. Many kingdoms and fortresses were founded here. Their alliances were strong, allowing the dwarven race to create many wonders like the Dawi Way. Even after the Fourth Age, The Calamity, where their kingdoms were almost destroyed by their enemies, the dwarves were able to get back on their feet. However, they had to lock their gates during the Post-Calamity Era of the Fifth Age, Current Age, when their old allies were going hungry. It isn't like they didn't want to help them, it was precisely because they did want to and knew if they did, their civilization in the mountains would crumble. When the green returned and the dwarves opened their kingdoms, they found no friendly faces. Instead, they started to blame themselves starting a bloody war in the mountains called the Guilty Crown Wars that lasted over fifty years. After this, only five kingdoms were left standing and it was the revived Divine Empire that helped them stop the war (as well as neighboring duchies that were once friends of the dwarves). The dwarves signed a new alliance with the empire as well as among themselves, starting the Alliance of Five Crowns.
