Behold the capital city of the Dwarves, noble travelers, as we prepare to delve into the heart of this timeless civilization. Join me, the Loremaster of Ironforge, and together let us uncover the grandeur of this fortress of stone and fire, intricately carved into the very face of the mountain. Here, where the echoes of times long past intertwine with the warmth of forges, a legacy is created, as enduring as the towering peaks that cradle it.

For thousands of years, the capital was governed by a succession of High Kings, each overseeing the city and its people with wisdom and strength. These kings were not only rulers but also custodians of dwarven culture and heritage, deeply respecting their lineage back to the Earthen and the titans. They maintained the traditions, laws, and crafts passed down through generations, ensuring the continuity of dwarven society.

Today, Ironforge is more than a mere city; it embodies the journey from stone creations to fleshandblood beings. Central to Azeroth's culture, politics, and defense, it anchors the Alliance with its steadfastness and strength. As the world faces everchanging threats and challenges, Ironforge adapts and endures, maintaining its vital role. The city's spirit and legacy are etched in the lives of its inhabitants and the broader narrative of history, where its forges and halls resonate with the collective aspirations of the dwarven people.
