At the top of the Black Soil Fortress, inside a house built of obsidian.
The stone house covers an area of about a hundred square meters. A circular stone table is placed at the center, with a blazing flame at its core, casting a dim glow over the interior.
The stone house is filled with orcs, dwarves, goblins, and a few trolls. They either stand or sit, shouting loudly. The hot-tempered dwarves occasionally roar in anger, and the orcs, not to be outdone, bellow back with booming voices. This is the tribal council meeting.
Bang, bang, bang!
A troll, about four meters tall, bangs on the stone table, trying to stop the quarreling dwarves and orcs.
Around the stone table sit several leaders from the Black Soil Battle Zone: a burly minotaur, the Mountain Dwarf King, a goblin inventor, and the troll who was just banging the table. This troll is a Frost Troll, a rare spellcaster among trolls.
