Settlestone

Town in The Spine of the World, The Silver Marches · Dwarvendarrow

Settlestone is a village of stone slabs near Mithral Hall, built long ago by dwarves and resettled in 1358 DR by barbarians from Icewind Dale as allies of the dwarves.

Simple stone houses huddle at the foot of the mountains, and tall northerners trade furs with dwarves from the halls nearby.

Overview

Settlestone lies near the Spine of the World, a short road from Mithral Hall, with the Cold Wood close by. It was first built by dwarves, unusually above ground, from great slabs of stone, and later fell into ruin. In 1358 DR barbarians from Icewind Dale, led by Berkthgar, resettled it in alliance with Mithral Hall.

It is a small, tough community whose warriors have fought beside the dwarves in the wars of the Silver Marches.
