Ashcort Mines
"Get back to mining!" a loud shout boomed out. The sound of a whip cracking sounded out shortly after, followed by a pained cry.
After coaxing the slave to get back to mining, the man turned around and began to walk through the mining field. This was the Aderite Mines, located in the Harel Mountain Range. Dozens of mining pits could be seen in the near distance, as thousands of slaves, both mortals and cultivators, went to work on mining Aderite Ore.
Aderite Ore was quite peculiar in its mining methods, as brute force would often destroy it to unusable levels. As such, delicacy was needed, resulting in the large-scale need for mortal miners.
The mining fields stretched over several miles, and were located at the base of the mountains to nearly half way up them. A constant flow of caravans streamed in and out of the mountain range, transporting the recently mined Aderite Ore.
