The Stone

IACTA

^{Ethnic enclave - Dwarven, medium guard presence.}
The Stone is located in the west of the Hillclimb, and is bordered to the east by the Hillclimb borough, and to the south by the Wall's Shade Market. Many of the buildings are carved into the hill itself, the fronts decorated with elaborate carvings and stonework. The Dwarves of the Stone are often traditionalists, seeing those Dwarves living outside of the Stone as surface-dwellers, the lowest of caste. They hold steadily to their traditions, beliefs, and caste-system. As such, it is Dwarven through and through, and taverns, smithies and other craftsmen, and the occasional traditional mushroom farm can be found here with ease. Following the Dwarven traditions can at times be difficult, even with the leeway granted to outsiders. Adding in the well-known grudge-holding Dwarves specialize in, it can at times be a potential minefield when it comes to accidentally insulting one or another. It is advised to seek a guide when doing business with the Dwarves of the Stone.
