 ===== Overview =====
-The Quarry is a forest village where a group of dwarves, under ++Thorhilda Brightstone|{female, dwarf, LG Expert1/Warrior1}++ cut limestone.  The quarry is supported by an unusual shrine, a shop and a tavern, as well as a forming a base for hunters and trappers.  The hamlet is connected to the Dwarven Mining Village of Iron Keep by a well-marked trail, and a regular(ish) trade caravan.Set in a forest clearing, dominated by a pair of limestone escarpments, it was discovered by a scouting party from a previous expansion drive.  The dwarf in the group noted that the limestone was eminently quarriable, and when the disused shrine was discovered, it became a 'place of interest' and further settlement.

-The Quarry does not have a formal leader, but rub along together fairly amiably, although there are occasional brawls in, and around, the Tavern. Nor it does it have a formal guard unit, although most woodsmen have a LXB or short bow, and the, Dwarves are all proficient with hammers and picks.  The Quarry, isn’t easy to raid, and the few tribes who tried, have long since given up.

+The Quarry does not have a formal leader, although Thorhilda always seems to have the last word.  However, in general, everyone rubs along together fairly amiably, Tavern brawls happen occasionally, but they are normally broken up before anyone gets seriously injured.  There is no formal guard unit, although many of the residents have some combat experience,  and regularly carry weapons, The Quarry isn’t an easy place to raid, and the few tribes who tried have long since given up.
+===== The Quarry =====
 The Quarry is the largest operation in the village.  Thorhilda and her assistants lives in a Crafter’s Cottage, where she oversees the production of powdered lime and similar products.  Ten other Dwarves live in a Creel Cottage converted into Lodgings, cut and shape limestone into blocks suitable for small statues and tablets suitable for making commemorative plaques.  Another Creel house provides a stable on the ground floor with Common Room accommodation above, to host mule trains and their drivers.
