Torlif

Nickname: The Adamant HallTorlif was built centuries ago by the peoples of the mountains before the Kingdom of Dawi came to be. After the establishment of the Kingdom of Dawi, Torlif became a centralized point for the nation. It was soon declared as the Citadel of the Kingdom and the Horned Throne was moved there. It is nestled on the side of Mount Yulta on the northside of the Halfast Mountains near the Sund River Valley. The city houses various quarries as well as surrounding pastures of cattle.
The borders with Yazak and the Hinterlands have become dangerous. What’s worse, the Jarl refuses to acknowledge the challenges the kingdom faces instead believing that his reign is the Apex of the Golden Years of Dawi. The common folk among the Dawi have dwindling patience with House Drel, but dwarves are a race of order. Despite this the unrest has grown and bubbled under the surface. A secret society has been established calling themselves Den Bryta Stormen (The Breaking Storm). This group is looking to change the leadership in Dawi, up to and including the Jarl himself. They are clandestine in nature and have made no major moves yet, but they will not hold back for long.
=== History: ===
The role of the Jarls of old was to be wielder of Hamrad the mighty adamant Warhammer, the first fruits of Evig Eld. The title of Jarl was given by the dwarves to the mightiest and most heroic among them. The Jarls of old were selfless, strong, brave and beloved. They put the Dawi above all and embodied the resilience, strength and wisdom dwarves would aspire to. Fingal Drel (spoken of in hushed tones as the Last Jarl) in his final days created a new law, behind closed doors, designating that the title of Jarl would now come via inheritance. Many mark the degradation of the Dawi from that very moment. 
House Drel quickly left behind the goodness of Fingal upon his passing. They became lazy, uncouth, cowardly and at times cruel. Ored Drel sits on the Horned Throne as Jarl now. He refers to himself as Ored the Anvil, in taverns throughout Dawi he is Ored the Odious. Ored and his cronies have made themselves a burden to the kingdom through burdensome taxation and a constant skimming of revenues to pay for their lavish lifestyle. Oreds associates permeate all possible positions of power creating a series of barriers between him and the people that never existed in the days of the first Jarl.
Prosperity is the worst thing that could have happened to the Dawi, as the ancient forge, Evig Eld, burning bright and supplying adamantium and other precious metals to the region through trade as well as wool, milk and meat from Tyraeli mountain cattle the vaults of Torlif began to overflow with gold. With war being but a memory, the corruption of House Drel and the Munil exodus Dawi has become a shadow of its former self.
