2042 AC

Infrequent earthquakes continue to rock Grimhjall. Tremors from the volcano.

With infighting having ceased and the old ways cleansed in fire, Vdalion pushes outwards. Their presence in international diplomacy becomes more pronounced. Peace finalized and while relations are shaky with Aen, the council was attended. The mountain cities help against Abendrot clear.

Word by now has spread that a warlock is being cleansed by Hela Vorraog. The Plague Lord Balrith has been felled by Emperor's hand. Warriors are armed and prepared as continual clashes happen below mountain with the likes of Xarxes, Wra'gul and those of Ebonhold. 

Barry Garrick, the human scout of the dwarves succeeds in his diplomatic mission. Thrim Underforged and Barry act as the pioneers of Mount Glufdor's new settlement. They fly under Vdalion's banner and protection. While expansion is slow, the dwarves of Galnur's work can be heard on eerie nights, the clanging of steel within Cavern of Immolation.
