The grip of the dwarves over Rookgaard has grown darker and far less predictable. Until now, their domination meant familiar hardships: Mortgag seizing the bank and Etoll blocking the bridge with his infamous toll. Those days are gone.

When Dwarven Domination rises again, it will no longer follow a single script. A random set of new events now unfolds each time, reshaping daily life on the island in different, brutal ways.

The temple itself may be sealed by a dwarven wall, Cipfried exiled, and a mocking Eskap left to greet trapped newcomers. Bridges may collapse, Seymour may be imprisoned in his own office, and the library may stand empty, ruled by Mendog's venomous words. Guards are replaced by drunk toll collectors like Osrak, town suffers frequent raids, and craftsmen like Obi, Dixi, Lily, and Norma may vanish after their tools are stolen. Even the streets are not spared, as lamps are torn down and darkness spreads.
