Exactly one year has passed since the cataclysmic events of The Frozen Throne. King Durnor Frostbane has returned triumphantly to his ancestral city, Durharthal—the legendary "Frozen Crown of the North." This year has marked a renaissance for the dwarven people, as thousands have journeyed from far and wide to reclaim their homeland, bringing life and warmth to halls that had long stood silent beneath a layer of frost and shadow.
 
To celebrate this remarkable resurgence, King Durnor declared a grand festival in Durharthal, inviting dwarven clans, allies, and dignitaries from neighboring realms to witness the rebirth of their once-mighty kingdom. Streets once encased in ice now gleam with firelight and resonate with music and laughter. Markets bustle, the ancient forges burn brightly, and hope blossoms amid the ancient stones and icy corridors.
