Meteorite Ore

The miners have their own name for it. They call it a tear of the gods, and they do not say which gods, nor what was wept for. It is found where nothing else is like it: a rock that is still molten, sitting in cold granite far below any fire, as though it had only now come to rest. Many a miner has gone down every day of a long life and never stood before one. Those who have are slow to speak of it, and the smith to whom such ore is brought shuts his door before he lights the forge.

Details

• It is mined from a molten rock, in a room named for the tear of the gods. There are a few from level 3 down and the most from level 30 to the bottom.
• It takes a mining pick and Pitter (Mining) at level e750. Below that level the ore is destroyed as it is dug.
• With coal it is smelted into meteorite ingots at Pitter (Smelting) level e750, and tempered at e950. No metal of the mines is stronger.
