History
In the, Torich's salt mine was attacked by a tribe of firenewts who came from deeper levels. The creatures dragged workers underground and claimed the excavation as the surviving miners fled. Torich's militia was informed of the attack but failed to act in a timely manner. Essien, one of the mine's foremen, was desperate for help against the fiery monsters. Some said that a group of adventurers who worked with merchant Sa'Sani of Samargol volunteered to help with the situation and eradicate the infestation.
