Overview

Among all the warriors of the Dwarfs, the doom-laden Slayer are the most feared. Driven by some secret shame or disgrace, these fearless fighters have pledged to regain their honor by seeking death in battle. Upon taking the Slayer oath, a Dwarf severs all ties to home and family and wanders the world in search of his fate. Though they often travel alone, there is one place where the Slayers are known to gather in force. That place is Karak Kadrin, the Slayer Keep.

Karak Kadrin is unique among all the holds of the Dwarfs in that its ruler, Ungrim Ironfist, is himself a Slayer. Bound by his duties as a monarch, he cannot leave and seek death in combat, and so he fulfills his Slayer oath by providing for other Slayers as they seek to fulfill their vows. At Karak Kadrin, a weary Slayer may find lodging, food and hospitality for as long as he needs it before resuming his quest for death. In return, those Slayers who remain at the keep are expected to help the King uphold his pledge to guard the Peak Pass, along which much trade flows between the lands to the east and west of the World's Edge Mountains.

In Kadrin Valley, the fighting is fierce and relentless, for not one, but two ancient conflicts have erupted into violence and bloodshed. Any hope of victory for the Armies of Order hangs by the slimmest of threads, for the alliance between the Dwarfs and High Elves is tenuous at best. Though it was long ago, the Dwarfs have never forgotten the terrible war they fought with the Lords of Ulthuan. It is likely these two ancient races will never again trust each other as they once did, even though the fate of both their peoples may depend on it.
