Steading of the Hill Giant Chief

Dwendylin
South, west, then southwest leads to a forge room where the fire giants worked. You recall chained dwarves there as well. Your gear was there, the last you recall.

Moving south, Dwendylin leads you deeper into the interior of the Hill Giant dungeons. The earthen floor is musty smelling, and the high ceilings are supported periodically by thick, wooden beams. Every so often there are smoky torches, giving the air a hazy, oily feel, but shed enough light to at least see.

At the end of the south hall it splits into a 'T'. To the left, you see a door on the other side of the east-west branch as well as a small entry into a sleeping area (8); this is probably where the bugbears came from. At the end of the east corridor, you see it has collapsed, heavy boulders blocking the way. Directly in front of you, you see two more doors, both of which have barred openings.

To the west, you see the tunnel runs straight. Far down at the end, you can see a bright, flickering light, as if a large, illuminated room stands waiting (15), and a pair of tunnels branch off along the way.

Korgazhar
Moving the first bar over, you quickly look into a dimly lit room. The stench coming from within is distinctly orc, and you can see what look to be partly emaciated orcs further in. How many you are unsure, as flickering torchlight messes with your infravision, but if you were to guess you would probably guess a couple of dozen wretches.

From behind you, you hear more and louder shouts, as the first of the giant reinforcements arrive at the base of the stairs!

Leading down the corridor, Dwendylin takes a left and heads into what looks to be an smithy. There is a side tunnel stacked with various smelting supplies, metal, coal, etc., and the main chamber holds an underground forge, anvil, blacksmith implements, etc. Working the huge forge fan are a half-dozen or so dwarves, all chained to one another and the forge itself. Each pull of the fan causes a massive blast of hot air to flood the room, nearly taking your breath away with its ferocity.
