Unqua-Oron, or the Hollow Mountain, was home to a civilization of Wood Elves. They carved their homes and stepped passageways on the face of the mountain, living isolated from many of the nearby Wood Elves (Namarro'dar?). It became a protectorate of the Raeyan Empire during the Iron Wars (fought against the Dwarves). The Empire realized the mountain's worth in valuable minerals and began mining operations at a breakneck pace. During the Civil War, the mountain was a constant target of rebel harassment, destroying much of the Elve's homeland and their people. After the fall of the Empire, the mountain fell very briefly into the hands of Orcs who had slipped down from the north. However the Gatharam Mining Company broke their hold over the mountain, turning the enslaved Elves into exiles in their own homeland. Conflict between the Elves and Gatharam lead many to believe the Elves of the Hollow Mountain have perished.
Rare accounts from former Gatharam security forces say that not all the Elves had been enslaved by the Orcs or killed by Gatharam forces. Some scattered, and one notable group set off into those mines in search of something to reclaim their homeland.
