Khazad Ungart
The Ancestral Seat of the Clan Ungart, the Dwarven Merchant Clan. Before the era of the Mistvales, the Ungarts were a backwoods clan of mountain dwarves, distained even by their hill dwarf cousins. Their ancestral home, a small fort dug into a mountain pass leading into the Mistvales, was covered by the Silver Mists, driving them out of their home for a century. With the Re-Ordinance of St. Dumon, they saw their home become a vital trading post, and one of their own, Agrimar Ungart, reach apotheosis and become the god of Nature.
By the time of the Deluge, Khazad Ungart was a thriving trade community, guarding a vital pass into the Mistvales. By the same token, the Ungart Merchant Clan had grown from a reviled, low-born clan to a powerful and wealthy family business spanning thousands of extended cousins, as well as many non-dwarven allies and employees. It’s said the waters came within a bowshot of the walls before receding, leaving the fortress city and the Mistvales beyond unscathed.
During the Reclamation and the Eidolon Wars, Khazad Ungart served as a primary base of operations, and to this day supports airship and engine manufacturing second only to the Bright Empire. They remain steadfast allies of New Radiance and all traditional members of the Vale Alliance.
