The migration of several dwarf clans to the mountains of Bourilia, where they would be ousted shortly after.


After having traveled extensively throughout Trinen, large portions of the dwarf community learned that they had a distaste for humans, who spread like wildfire and left little opportunity for work. While the dwarves may have been more proficient in digging and mining, the humans were more than willing to send extraneous individuals to face the conditions regardless. So much land across Trinen was in the process of being regained thanks to the increasing demands of rulers to claim anything within the untamed world. While resources were not plentiful enough to enforce this rule, the dwarves knew it would only be a matter of time. Those who stayed would face this reality in the upcoming war of empires, but those who left would find better luck.   Originally landing on the southern reaches of Silse, the dwarves quickly began setting up shop in the nearest mountains. It would take months, but a dispatch of dark elves indentured to the Bourilia military would find these settlements and report them to Morie You. An initially peaceful wave of diplomats and guards would approach the foreigners, explaining that the land was spoken for. While the dwarves initially declined, frustrated with their long tale of travel and struggle, they would comply when several platoons arrived at their door in the coming months. The dwarves reportedly complained that the mountains were useless and absent of resources anyway: a fact often referred to humorously, due to its echo of Vhou Riyael's original synopsis of the region.
