At the northernmost point of the Hammersong Mountains is a 7,000 feet tall peak that has two massive metal doors, and inside the mountain is a splendid city known as Vorelisk. This city was more magically advanced than any of its modern sisters, with leagues of Vythsthyr (warforged) providing all manner of city services. Unfortunately, the mining within Vorelisk was so aggressive that eventually they awakened "the eaters", purple worms deep in the earth. For half a century, the city tried to hold the eaters back, but they were forced to take drastic action to prevent the spread of the eaters into the open world. They closed the massive doors in the mountain, and filled the city with water in 801 ASK.
