"Nearly razed to the ground by the Tuigan, this city was held for awhile by a large group og bandits who extorted heavy tolls from caravans passing through their land.  The oligarchy paid a squadron of one hundred orcs to root out the bandits, and now the tusked warriors are hailed as heroes in this town, which has been rebuilt and resettled by its original inhabitants." 1
