Uggg Found A Weird Mining Complex...

[Uggg 9]

When Aegis was destroyed, Uggg made it successfully onto one of the fleeing ships. However, as fortune would have it, Uggg fell off of the ship in a drunk and disorderly display aboard the bow. After all, Uggg did go from being a nothing slave in a Dwarven mine to becoming one of the single largest land owners of Aegis. And now... nothing. Reduced to a slobbering fool of an Orc aboard a ship of sobbing whelps. So one night in a slobbering speech about climbing to the top only to fall back down to the depths of disparity, Uggg fell overboard.

There was nothing. Nobody. No Wizard to guide him, no Aenguls, no Daemons. Only silence. Cold unallotted darkness coupled with a symbiosis of solitude, and destitute failure. Then one day Uggg, through a visage in his chapped and cracked eyelids, started to see something that he remembered from a long time ago. Could it.. is it... YES, it's light! The sweet refreshing sounds and smells of his past flooding back into his memories. But there was something more. New smells, new visions of wilderness standing before him. Slowly but surely Uggg sat upright. Looking around very carefully, he started taking it all in. Then he remembered his journey on the ship. And all his memories started rushing back so fast that his Orc brain couldn't take it anymore. He collapsed right there, wherever it was that Uggg was laying.

When he awoke this time, Uggg took a deep breath and slowly stood. Realizing that this wasn't home, his Orc survival instincts took over. First he needed weapons. Something to defend himself with, but the problem was he wasn't sure if this was where the whelps on his ship landed or if he was in a world all to his own. But as his vision steadily increased, he noticed that he was in the middle of a created structure. A small sign told him to go down the hole. Like the proverbial saying from "Alice in Wonderland", Uggg, seeing nowhere else to go jumped down the hole. When he first landed, his mind flashed way back to his days of being a Dwarven slave. It appeared to be a cave or mine of some sort. Uggg just realized that he fell into a Dwarven trap and was now going to be enslaved again. What a fitting end for Uggg to be a slave to the Dwarves in the beginning, then in the end as well. Alas, it wasn't to be. When his eyes started to adjust, it is taken in that it is not a cave nor a mine. Just a library, and in the center is a bookshelf with a sign near it. Uggg read the sign and took the book from the shelf like the sign said to do. A small feeling of relief swept over Uggg after reading the book when he realized that this was where everyone else was. Upon collecting his new soulstone, he chanted the spell and was swept off to his new home. Welcome to Asulon Uggg.

Now in Asulon, Uggg decided he would make a rush to find some weapons. He needed his ax and needed it in a bad way. After all, Orcs feel naked without their weapons. So after a few attempts at trying to chop down anything, or just something, Uggg realizes that all of this land is enchanted. So he headed for the most ruthless, cunning, maniacle, cheating jerks that he could think of to look for supplies... The Dwarves.

Uggg saw some sign along the path for some town called Rose Aqua or Rosy Aquilia.. Uggg didn't care. The only thing he cared for was trying to get supplies in a hurry. He found what he needed in this town, and made his way back for the entrance. When at the entrance to the town, Uggg decided it was time to go find his new estate and start prospering here like in Aegis. So standing at the entrance of this town, Uggg decided to go (not telling directions for security purposes). He walked in this same direction without fail for over one solid day. He traveled over forest, desert, snow, ocean, swamp, then finally a long swim across an ocean that was almost half a days trip just across the ocean. This is where Uggg took a break. And upon looking down he noticed the ocean floor was higher here than other areas. A lot higher. So he constructed himself a small island there buy lower bucket after bucket of dirt, sand, and cobble into the water. Then through the middle of this island, Uggg made a shaft with a ladder entrance.

It was a simple idea really. Uggg thought instead of building an above ground city where it was a target, he was so far out here that nobody will ever find this new city. So he carved the shaft and erected his ladder inside the shaft. Then started carving out what will soon be a grand stair case leading to his city entrance. It was on this excavation that Uggg found wood when he was mining. Uggg may not be the smartest Orc in the business, but he knows that wood doesn't just grow underground. So he dug around some more. And sure enough, there are mining tunnels everywhere down here. Uggg did some exploring, but he didn't have enough torches to make it safely any further into the mine. But, now that he found this place, he has locked away all his items safely in his chest, took out his soulstone. And chanted the spell which created this location as his home. It is here that you will find Uggg, just barely into the borders of the Wilds. You'll find him deep under the ocean exploring these new pathways of such despair.

OOC: In case you didn't catch the drift in the story. Yes I found a stronghold. Not sure if anyone else has found one yet, but seeing as this one was under the ocean. I just happened to be swimming around the ocean looking for an island to settle and I noticed the land formations were a bit off on the seafloor. So I started digging. And like I said.. seeing as it's this far out, and under the ocean. I'm almost positive that it's unexplored. Dunno though. I did a forum search for stronghold and nothing came up, so I figured I'd say something and do it while writing a neat little story. But if anyone else has found a stronghold I'd be interested to hear the best way to explore them. I haven't even found one of these in my single player games yet. I've been away from MC since November, so I'm still catching up on all the new stuff.

Uggg should contact the Oracle if he wishes to learn more about such things. But first you must find the Oracle IC.
