The Silver Plains is a vast and hilly region located in the north-western part of the Silver Dominion. It is named after the abundant silver deposits that can be found there. The region is known for its rugged terrain and harsh climate, with snowfall being common during the winter months.
The hills of the Silver Plains are home to many mining operations, run by a variety of different races. Dwarves are among the most common miners in the region, due to their skill and experience in mining for precious metals. Other races such as gnomes and halflings can also be found in the mines, using their small stature to navigate the narrow tunnels and cramped spaces. Humans are also present in the mining operations, though they are often looked down upon by the other races for their lack of experience and skill.
Due to the rich silver deposits, the mining operations are highly profitable, and the miners are often fiercely territorial about their claims. This has led to many disputes and conflicts between different mining groups, with violence occasionally breaking out.
In addition to these conflicts, the Silver Plains also sees some tensions between local miners and those from the northern parts of the Silver Dominion. Miners from the north often cross the border into the Silver Plains to set up their own operations, leading to resentment and hostility from the local miners who see them as outsiders trying to take what is rightfully theirs. These conflicts can sometimes escalate into violence, leading to the Royal Watch intervening to prevent further bloodshed.
Despite the challenges and conflicts, the Silver Plains remains an important source of wealth and prosperity for the Silver Dominion. The silver mines provide valuable resources for trade and commerce, and the local economy relies heavily on the industry. However, the region remains a dangerous place, with harsh weather conditions and the constant threat of conflict between rival mining groups.
