History
He and his followers were fleeing the Great Quakes when they found the mountain that they would later make their home. They had camped in a small valley when at dusk they heard a deep blare of a Dwarf warhorn but investigating found that it was actually the wind blowing through the passageways of a great cave network which caused Kurgaz great amusement!
