Wave Echo Cave
Wave Echo Cave is a great cavern complex northwest of Phandalin and the location of the Forge of Spells. The cavern was known for its mineral wealth as well as its magical properties. Wave Echo Cave was connected to an underground hot spring that continuously boiled near the cavern. The cavern got its name from the booming sounds created every time the waves crashed against the caverns opening in the north-east corner of the complex.
When the the orcs of Uruth Ukrypt came from the north they laid waste to the region. The orcs were aided by mercenary wizards when they attacked Wave Echo Cave, adamant in seizing its riches. The human spellcasters of Phandalin fought alongside the gnomes and dwarves to defend the cave. However, the battle of magic destroyed much of Wave Echo Cave. Few survived the battle and so the location of the cave was lost to history.
For hundreds of years, opportunists were attracted to the area in hopes of seeking lost treasure, including a dark elf named Nezznar. The location was at last rediscovered by a trio of dwarves, the Rockseeker brothers. After the death of one brother, the remaining two were able to finally enter and lay claim to the cavern thanks to a group of adventurers. Now, the cave is under the protection of the Kingdom of Stormfold while an entire company of dwarven infantry protecting the area.
