Zundrfoersk

"The Small village of Zundrfoersk." 
"A testament to the forsaking of tradition." 
-the runemaster, Borgil Relicbeard to a foreign dwarf scholar 
==Overview==
The Foersken were the last colonial party to be sent out under the reign of Sven Sootbeard. They were the only colonial party to not be sent out by Sven Sootbeard, and were a detachment of the Dwarves who settled Zundrijenwoerkaar, in Hillsbrad Foothills. 
The Foersken headed westwards into Gilneas, and settled a small island near to the border with Gilneas in the Northern Headlands. 
The colony was only mentioned in a small note found in the Grand Tome of Zundrijenwoerkaar. Zundrijenwoerkaar sent out the colonial expedition because they sought more metals elsewhere, and the area known as Gilneas was said to have a wealthy supply of metals. 
==History ==
The Foersken were led by Balain Sootbeard, the bastard son of Thoror Sootbeard- the second thane of Zundrijenwoerkaar. Balain was the bastard between him and a dwarf female by the name of Thondi. 
Thoror's wife- Grorundi, was angered by the infedelity of her husband. She had Thondi executed, and Balain was exiled. However, in order to protect the line of the Sootbeards, Thoror gave the commission of creating a colony in the mysterious land of Gilneas. He was given one hundred Dwarves to come with him, which were primarily miners, and a runepriest- Fimkon Cragrune and a lorekeeper- Broin Lorebeard. 
On the way there, nearly thirty of the Dwarves died, and the remaining seventy were able to create a small colony in northern Gilneas, near the area of the modern Emberstone Mine. They established a small mine by the name of Mijn, and the settlement itself was known as Zundrfoersk. The mine did not yield very many profits, and the Dwarves were unable to farm the land. 
==Mystery ==
Zundrfoersk fell under mysterious circumstances. The mine was found mysteriously caved in, despite no sound of explosions in the nearby village of Emberstone Village. There was no sign of the village, including the houses, smithy, and town hall. 
Many hypothesize that it was destroyed by a rage of the titans, for abandoning culture. The Dwarves of Zundrfoersk were agnostic and atheistic, and chose to start worshipping the elements, rather than the Titans.
