History[edit]
In 1078 AE, earthquakes tore open the ground, revealing ancient crypts beneath. Local Stone Summit dwarves sensed great magic within and ordered their dredge slaves to excavate the area in order to reach it. The source of the magic turned out to be the trapped undead lich Zoldark the Unholy who promised the dwarves unimaginable power if he was freed from his tomb. However, unbeknownst to the miners, he gradually began possessing their minds to turn them into his enslaved minions.
Thanks to the information delivered by worried dredge slaves who were struggling against the lich's spreading influence, a party of heroes realized the threat and descended into the Vloxen Excavations where they defeated Zoldark in the heart of his tomb.
