History
One of the first Dwarven nations, constructed 1859 BL. Name is Haakish for "Blue Flame," and the Haakish spoken there is considered the most "authentic" by the Dwarves and is the dialect taught to students of the language. It is home to the first Dwarven bardic academy, established "in an attempt to resurrect 'the knowledge and beauty of Dwarven song-stories.' Under its first rector, the cleric Glazhn Ofnor, the school launched an ambitious attempt to recover earlier instruments and texts, while 'creating new art to celebrate our continuing accomplishments.'"
Under King Garrock's rule, Kwarlog entered the Elven-Human War on the side of the Humans.
It spans the Arncharn Shel, which are located to the north of the Paasvadh Forest that houses Boar Clan and border Therengia, and the Himineldar Shel, home to Hibarnhvidar. One time allies of Therengia against the Dragon Priests, defeating them on the northern front in 3 BL, the Therengia-Kwarlog War was fought from 49-64 AV, resulting in the siege of Theren Keep (leading to its current state of disrepair) and the Therengian occupation of Hvaral beginning in 63 AV and continuing to the present day.
