The dwarven city is located inside a hollowed out stony mountain. Benign dwarves populate the mountain city. Pillars of the entrance are adorned with gold, and inside the fortress exists a vast city bustling with strange magical technology.
A Dwarven City, Mountain

I live my life beneath the earth, mining for precious metals and gems. I have the most spectacular beard in twelve kingdoms. My axe is sharp and always ready.
Greetings Dwarf - be ye lost? I am no Dwarf! I am a Gnome!!! Back off Gnome; I meant no harm.  Just joshin' ye a bit.  Are ye taken aback at the beauty of our city?  An amazing marvel, it is!  Seen ye anything like it? There is nothing in that filthy city that I could possibly want! Aye, the gnomes never did have an eye for beauty..... such a treasure is wasted on such as ye.  What brings you here, then..... or as I said, be ye lost? I am looking to start some trouble.... Oh ye be makin' me laugh now!  Me beard alone could take you on - best be paying attention to who has the finest fashioned armor in all the kingdom.   What can you possibly do with such an awful excuse of a slingshot. It's not me sling shot I'd be aworryin' about, wee dwarf.  Me axe is honed from the finest steel and sharpened to a razor edge. Your axe could not even cut a twig! Now, now... ye be getting all riled over nothing.  Would ye be wanting to see some of the fine gems we mine here? Show me the gems you ought be hiding.
