Appearance:
Perched atop a rugged mountain plateau, Stonehearth Citadel is visible for miles. Its towering gates, forged from dark iron and adorned with glowing runes of protection, are set into the mountain itself. The exterior features sharp, angular walls that rise like natural extensions of the peaks, blending stonework seamlessly with the rugged terrain. At night, enchanted crystals embedded in the outer walls cast a soft, golden glow, giving the citadel a beacon-like appearance.
Interior:
The main hall, known as the Hall of Eternal Flame, is dominated by a massive forge, its fire said to have been lit by a divine spark from the dwarven god of craft. Around the forge, statues of legendary smiths and warriors stand in silent vigil. Beneath the citadel, labyrinthine mines produce iron, gold, and rare stones.
Lore:
Stonehearth is the oldest stronghold in Gavony and serves as the seat of the dwarven High Council. Its deep connection to ancestral heritage makes it a place of pilgrimage for dwarves across the land.
