Karak Vlag

The military Hold of Karak Vlag was once the northernmost fortress of the dwarves in the Worlds Edge Mountains and known for its silver work and inexhaustible iron mines in the middle of the granite mountains. Karak Vlag lies as the capital of the northern part of the Empire of Karak Ankor, and its survival continues to defy the fact that it is completely detatched from the main Empire.

It was first founded south of the High Pass and was a powerful defensive bastion of the Old World. Its defences walls could allegedly withstand any attack of which the Dwarves put attached immense importance, because they were always attacked from the northern lands by chaos warriors and other evil creatures. During the War of Tears Karak Vlag would become the last bastion of the Dwarves as they watched as their entire northern Empire collapsed. Its population swelled following the mass immigration of the Dwarven Hold of Karak Vane, and Karak Vadin and this would allow Karak Vlag to surive the rest of the destructive nature of the War of Tears. Following the conflict Karak Vlag would grow immensly powerful after it became the main source of trade for Kizlev, and controlled the Silver Pass which gave it immense power. The defences of the Hold were turned into a veritable fortress and thus as the attacks over the centuries have been dangerous the defences have always held out.
