Mines of Joy
Capital City-Gallery of the Rocky Isle and the Dwarf Kingdom, built entirely under the mountains of the Precious Valley.
"(...)who escorted us down the galleries to the gigantic, magnificent, and colorful throne room, built in gold, iron, and copper and studded with rubies, sapphires, emeralds, diamonds, alexandrites... The precious stones mirrored the dawn light that came from small tunnels in the ceiling, and they reflected it into the room in thousands of shades. It was the second time I had visited this gallery, and I could say that now, in the past, the gallery was much more beautiful and luminous. The arches that split into more arches were immaculate, the designs shining, the tapestries vibrant. I breathed in the air scented with sweetened incense before answering. (...) For the next four days, my routine was to have a good breakfast, then go down to the heat of the forges and pour some magic for hours as I watched dwarves transform blocks of divine silver, brought from the trees above, into the best swords in Az Barnuá. At the end of the day, I would follow the dwarves to the Hall of Stairs and Opal would take me up to the bedroom to prepare for dinner with King Mozôkuntz and the other eight Clan representatives"in In Between Times, Chp47
