The Deadly Mines

The Deadly Mines is an early base that dates back to the early days of the Ancient Reign. It is often speculated to be the first known man-made structure in The Ancient World.

It is known that Drakortha lived here in his early days before his rise to Godhood, where he became the God of Creation.

Though it's original name is unknown, it became known as the Deadly Mines due to the winding tunnels and caverns which had a very high density of hostile mobs. Drakortha himself had been ambushed and almost killed several times during his spelunking expeditions here.

The first section, once entering, was a living area. It included storage, lighting, wooden floors and ceilings, and a bedroom. Later, a "safety tunnel" system was built through the mines, which allowed safer travel to different sections of the Mine. All of this has since fell into disrepair.

The mines were used for mining and hauling large amounts of stone, which was then used to build the Ancient Signal Towers that dot the area.

Drakortha moved on from the Deadly Mines after an incident involving a stash of TNT led to an explosion within the structure, damaging it beyond repair.
