The Dwarves of Myrgard
The Dwarves of Myrgard and Stoneheim are a proud, strong race, living since the weaving of the world in the empire of their mountain underground. The Dwarves have been allied with the humans since the early days of the the Cath Bruig Empire, establishing the Dwarven Smiths of Muirthemne within the walls of Llancarfan. The capital city was later renamed by Connacht to Muirthemne in honor of the Dwarves to helped save it.
Description[]
For the past thousands of years since the early days of the Wind Age, the Dwarves have been at war with the Ghôls, who were responsible for defiling their shines and stone monuments. This led to a bloody battle in the early fall of 1434 A.E. when the Ghôls attempted to siege the Gates of Myrgard. With the help of reinforcements sent by Emperor Leitrim, the combine forces of Dwarves and Connacht's army defeated the ravaging Ghôls. Fifty years before the events of Myth: The Fallen Lords, Myrgard and Stoneheim were invaded by the Ghôls, driving the Dwarves away from their homes. They traveled far west to human territory for salvation at The Province. As the Great War waged on, the Dwarves managed to retake their homelands from the Ghôls by destroying their Godhead, and they aided the Light to victory over the Dark.
Even long after the undead's defeat, deep hatred between the Dwarves and Ghôls only grew greater.
