Mitrill ore: a glowing deposit in the deep, smelted into a light strong metal.
Mitrill is the one ore that lights its own wall. A miner far down in the limestone will see a blue glow at the end of a gallery where no lamp is, and go toward it with his heart beating, for that is a deposit of mitrill, and it does not wait there for the unskilled. A clumsy stroke and it is dust. The metal that comes of it weighs half what iron weighs and turns a blade better than steel, and a coat of it has been left by father to son and by that son to his.
Details
- It lies in a glowing ore deposit from level 3 below the surface to the bottom, always scarce, and less so from level 20 down.
- It takes a mining pick and Pitter (Mining) at level e450. Below that level the ore is destroyed as it is dug.
- With coal it is smelted into mitrill ingots at Pitter (Smelting) level e450, and tempered at e850.
