Amgarrak Thaig

Amgarrak is an ancient thaig of the dwarves. In their tongue, Amgarrak means "Victory".
== Background ==
Before Queen Getha was deposed, it is said that she delivered the only remaining fragments of Caridin's research to House Dolvish. Legends say that House Dolvish bankrupted itself by establishing a secret research laboratory in the Deep Roads. With the help of a Tevinter magister, they sought to recreate Caridin's work. Fedrik, the last scion of House Dolvish, promised the Assembly a new golem fresh from Amgarrak, knowing it would raise the Dolvish clan again to prominence. But when no golem materialized, Fedrik was ruined. He died years later, and with his death, House Dolvish was no more.Amgarrak and House Dolvish. BioWare wiki.
Amgarrak was once a forge where dwarven smiths sought to research, replicate and improve Caridin's work by studying and altering existing golems. However, 
contact with the thaig was lost under mysterious circumstances. The research was performed under the jurisdiction of an unnamed dwarven noble as well as a Tevinter mage known as Nereda.
Scattered throughout the thaig are strange machines known as Lyrium wells, which are capable of shifting anyone who uses them between different levels of the Fade. Certain parts of the thaig are only accessible on specific levels. Each level has a distinct hue which everything within it shares, and are reachable via the use of the corresponding switch.
Recently a dwarven scholar, Darion Olmech, mounted an expedition to discover the final fate of Amgarrak and recover any useful research. However the expedition failed to return. Jerrik Dace's brother, Brogan was part of the expedition to Amgarrak.
