Khundrukar
Khundrukar (ka-hoon-droo-KAR1) is the final resting place of the Stonehammer Clan of shield dwarves, survivors of the fall of the dwarven under empire after the calamity. It was built by the smith Durgeddin the Black after orcs drove his people east from their ancestral home in the Cliffkeep Mountains. When Durgeddin's folk finally settled the caves, their numbers had dwindled to less than thirty, with only a dozen or so fighting men.
Decades later, when another orc horde finally descended upon Khundrukar, its people were slaughtered and the citadel was left in ruin. Today, Khundrukar is but a distant memory to the dwarves of old Delzoun, a ghost story dwarf parents tell their children around their cooking fires.
