Located about three days north of Endhome, the Caves were once the lair of a powerful tribe of Orcs. The Orcs were wiped out some fifty years ago by the city militia, and the Caves have steadily become populated with any number and manner of strange creatures.
There are persistent rumours of great wealth to be found in the caves, and there is at least one other group of adventurers currently in the city, who presumably intend to explore the caves.
Curly Barns has a map which he believes shows part of the cave system. Penelope Barmey's husband Fenton went missing in the caves about a year sgo.
The player characters fought a group of Ikrikit during their first expedition into the caves, and a Black Dragon during their second. It's a dangerous place!
