What do the dwarves contain then?

Which halls and tunnels vary wildly depending on the particular emperor, and of course that secret is closely guarded. If a party of adventurers collapses the wrong tunnel, the effects may be more akin to traumatic brain damage a la Phineas Gage - a whole new (and likely far more dangerous) personality for an emperor that knows it's under brutal assault. Strike once, strike fast, strike hard, and mind the load-bearing pillars.Velexiraptorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11905782814663480658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777118448302662831.post-61289394202412385392019-09-12T21:12:34.025-04:002019-09-12T21:12:34.025-04:00Dwarfare... *chortle, snort*Dwarfare... *chortle, snort*Andrew Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08267051863258437203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777118448302662831.post-63006401101959404902019-09-12T19:17:04.592-04:002019-09-12T19:17:04.592-04:00If a dwarf hold is alive and cognizant, how would ...If a dwarf hold is alive and cognizant, how would it be possible to invade or kill one?
