If continuing on the Ancient Forge route, there will be the magnum opus of a long-forgotten Sharran blacksmith - the legendary [[Adamantine Forge (Location)|Adamantine Forge]], capable of smithing the mythical [[Mithral Ore]] into armaments of exceptional quality. It is clearly visible from the Abandoned Refuge vista and can be accessed by traversing south-east, down from the 'Underdark - Ancient Forge' waypoint, past the lava pools and across the collapsing bridge. | If continuing on the Ancient Forge route, there will be the magnum opus of a long-forgotten Sharran blacksmith - the legendary [[Adamantine Forge (Location)|Adamantine Forge]], capable of smithing the mythical [[Mithral Ore]] into armaments of exceptional quality.

== History == | |||
The original Grymforge fortress was built in an unknown age by a group of Sharran followers. Those Sharrans used the fortress for approximately eight hundred years, after which it was abandoned. Grymforge was not re-inhabited until {{CharLink|Ketheric Thorm|Ketheric Thorm's}} [[Dark Justiciar]] army were brought in to rebuild it. <ref>[[Grymforge: A History]]</ref> | |||
After this, the Grymforge served as a base of operations for Ketheric and his Justiciars. Among these Sharrans was Silouv Yali, a gnome well known for his wizarding talents. Yali guided the Sharrans in building the [[Adamantine Forge (Location)|Adamantine Forge]], which was able to heat mithral to great enough temperatures to forge adamantine. As well, he conjured {{CharLink|Grym}}, a construct who protects the forge. <ref>[[The Great Furnace of Grymforge]]</ref> | |||
While Ketheric's forces worked to destroy Reithwin and its surrounding Selûnite population, a Selûnite resistance lead by {{CharLink|Infernal Mason|Mordfred}} worked to oppose him. The Justiciars proved too strong however, forcing Mordfred to make a bargain with {{CharLink|Raphael}} in desperation; destroy the Justiciars in return for his soul.<ref>[[Mason's Log]]</ref> | |||
Raphael sent the orthon {{CharLink|Yurgir}} and his [[Merregon Legionnaire|merregons]] to the Grymforge. Yurgir smashed through the cities walls, leaving behind hellish glass. <ref>Dialogue with {{CharLink|Kith|Stonemason Kith}}</ref> Together, he and his merregons wiped out the Justiciar presence. While Yurgir and most of his legion left to remove the Justiciars from the [[Gauntlet_of_Shar|Gaunlet of Shar]], some merregons remained in Grymforge. | |||
