I would love to see more on Siremun, those dwarves really intrigue me and i have to note that any realms that will accept gray dwarves back into their ranks is a step in the right direction.
In the web enhancement, I was pleasantly surprised that someone actually remembered those "off-shoot" dwarven communities in the Hordelands, let alone calling them gold dwarves (whom the shield dwarves evolved from)...those communities may be the eldest dwarven holds in the realms...
Actually the oldest dwarven community in the Realms was written up for this article... and alas cut for space. The original article covered the entire Hordelands but had to be trimmed back to focus on the northwestern part of the region. You see, there was the first dwarven city settled in Faerun that came to be called Olddeeping... and all was good for millennia until the Nar-Raumathar war... and then things got horrible.
More to come, I hope, in Dragon. |

Holy Crap! I really hope that can be published sometimes soon! |

So do I...this sounds like extremely interesting stuff. Loving what I´ve been able to read of the work on the Hordlands so far. Loving it a lot, indeed... |

| Blast!!! Paizo still has not got me my issues of Dragon that I ordered! I really want that Hordeland article and the article on Impiltur in Dragon #346. Where are they? That proposed article on OldDeeping sounds great! Any idea when it may be released? Or is that NDA? |

| Surprised that no one commented about this article bringing the current in game date to 1375, since most of the sourcebooks/novels are still being written for 1372 to 1374. |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Is there anything elsewhere about the "last imaskari" described in this article ? (I don't have my game books currently). |

Yaravindar was written exclusively for this article, and has never appeared elsewhere. |

No NDA, just in the pitch stage. |

I'm a bit behind on reading Dragon, so I just started reading this article... But I was quite amused by the fact that in the Lake of Mists, there exists an "elusive pod of plesiosaurs".    |
