GLOOMPIT THE DANK

GLOOM PIT THE DANK
The most well known excavated Dune. As the story goes, a human treasure hunter and thief by the name of Faithlynn Canterbury was following a map from the Artificer’s Academy. This map was stolen by her from a glass case meant for showcasing gnomish artifacts and goods from the original three Ages. Having to work in complete secrecy, she and her team excavated deep into Mount Lorscha until finally breaking through to the Dune. As the fable goes upon breaching the Dune a scream from inside its maw was heard throughout Dagrun, foreshadowing the horrors that lie within. It is essentially a black pit with seemingly no end, those who go inside rarely return. Those who return come back scarred and empty handed. They say the pit is from the Second Age, an artificer and necromancing noble woman inhabited this Dune. What remains from her studies and experiments are so horrifying, so terrible, that only the bravest will dare venture inside. All who treasure hunt know though, what comes at a great cost also comes with great reward. Despite the shady origins, there is a high price on any artifact which can be recovered from this Dunecrag.► Show Spoiler

Artificer's Dream

ARTIFICER'S DREAM
A Dunecrag that never ceases to give, this deep labyrinth will have the explorer turned in circles for ages. While much of it has been mapped out, there is still so much left to explore. The noble who created this in the first ages was verifiably a genius, hiding their secrets with puzzles, optical illusions, and the maze itself which seems to never stay the same. Those who have cracked the codes hidden in Artificer's Dream’s hallways have found marvels of technology unlike any on Atharen. Whirly gigs here are so complex that they make the most experienced minds of the Dunemaids feeble; most of what is found remains a mystery to those who bring back treasure. This Dune is about a ten days walk worth of cave travel in the Cauren Wulds from The Dyn heading downwards and southwest.
