Introduction

There are times when a Yellowian ranger is worth more than a thousand regular soldiers. Fortunately for the Yellowians it always seems to be one of those times when someone tries to invade.

Mouser, attempting to explain to Stasis Gemblade how The Kingdom of Yellowia had survived more than one thousand years with no heavy cavalry. 208 A.C.

The Dwarven Kingdom is so named because it was the first and remains the greatest of the kingdoms made up mostly of dwarves. There is no ambiguity when the term is used; everyone knows that the nation being referenced is the kingdom of the String Mountains Dwarves, the monarchy of the Highmountain clan.

The kingdom is made up of cities and towns of all sizes, from hundreds of towns with fewer than 1,000 dwarves to the massive city of Port Springs with its abundant mixture of races. Throughout, themes of crafting and magic, the primary tenets of Smofarf, pervade.
