Overview
Searing Gorge is a scorched canyon of lava, ash and rust, just north of the Burning Steppes. The Dark Iron dwarves lurk in it, and Blackrock Mountain looms over the east. It is a hot, ugly place, and it is full of dwarves with a grudge. [Game · Zone: Searing Gorge]
Thorium Point
Thorium Point is the neutral stronghold of the Thorium Brotherhood, a society of dwarves and others who live to fight the Dark Iron. Alliance and Horde both walk in. Everybody here has bigger problems than each other. [Game · Quest: Dwarven Justice] [Game · Quest: A Binding Contract]
The Dark Iron
The Dark Iron dwarves are the clan that served Ragnaros and lost. They hold Grimesilt Dig Site, the Slag Pit and the Cauldron, and they work with fire elementals and golems. Think of them as the dwarves who made the worst choice available. [Game · Quest: WANTED: Overseer Maltorius] [Game · Quest: Precarious Predicament]
Their machines are a threat too. [Game · Quest: The Rise of the Machines] [Game · Quest: Look at the Size of It!]
Crime in the Gorge
The Brotherhood has a criminal side. Thieves, forgers and smugglers pass through, and some of them sell to the Dark Iron. [Game · Quest: Shadoweaver] [Game · Quest: The Undermarket] [Game · Quest: Caught!]
The Mountain Next Door
Blackrock Mountain is entered from here. Blackrock Depths holds the Dark Iron capital, Shadowforge City, and the Molten Core sits at the bottom of the mountain. You do not walk into either by accident.
