[QUOTE="thol, post: 1356487, member: 6365"] [b]The Diamond Web[/b] The Southlands are known for many things. There are dense jungles, strange animals, the Gorge River Falls, and the ruins of the Old Dhrom. But what they are known for most are precious stones. At the mouth of the Gorge River lies the Great Mines of Njambe [JOM-bay] the Warrior-King, the most heavily guarded place ever known. King Njambe has always been quite paranoid, and by right, as his mines produce the only source of diamonds besides the ancient ruins that lie hidden in the forgotten places across the Southlands. He protects his rule by assuring his might, which comes from his vast wealth. The guarding forces of the Mine, known simply as the Mineguard, are more organized than most armies, with elaborate procedures and specialized training. The men in the Mineguard are the elite of Njambe's warriors, second only to his private guards. His paranoia comes through most in the fact that for each aspect of the mining operation, there are two units assigned to protect it. They each watch each other, and the men are extremely loyal to their individual commanders, having been brought up with their unit from childhood. From the mining itself, to the sorting, cutting, setting, transport, and eventually sale, there is a layer of protection given by the Mineguard. Retribution is quick for those who dare steal from the Warrior-King, and as such, since his rule, the Mines have seen attempted thievery virtually eliminated. Of course, there are fools who try, thinking they are smarter than the Guard. There has been the occasional magic-user who has tried to infiltrate the Mines by various magical methods, but all have been caught in the act, and put to public death for all Njambe's subjects to see. Some call him Njambe the Spider-King, and his network of protection the Diamond Web. [b]Next up: The Shrine of Fortune[/b] [/QUOTE]
