Gorrogash Stronghold

This Orcish hold is built into the southernmost mountains of the Ashen Range. It was planned by an orc named Kort Gorrogash and built during his chieftainship of the Gorrogash clan. They hollowed out great halls in the granite using blasting powder and picks, and during its construction they made treaties with the raiding clans of the Ashen Range to pay for the capture of dwarves who were brought in and told to describe their homes and buildings. Kort, being a bright enough orc released cooperative prisoners, an act remembered by the Ulysses Dwarves, who participate less and less in the war against the orcs.

At any rate, the hold is grandiose in stature and boasts many large pieces of defensive artillery along the mountainous walls.
