	Several clusters of beautifully painted caves lie under the hills of Miekarova, thought to be of Ushkan origin. The paintings in the cave are incredibly vibrant, and [[Materials#Iridescent Gloaming\|iridescent gloaming]] has clearly been added to the pigments. They are often quite abstract, but occasional enigmatic images of people and animals are common features. Several of the caves are known to have potent wards laid over them that still maintain their power today, and more than one contains a strong [[regio]], usually connected to the realm of Night.

	In [[#Miechernya\|Mierchernya]], Mormyk was the furthest western vale and closest to the territory of [[Skarsind]]. It enjoyed a long history of good relations with the people of [[Skarsind#Estermark\|Krysse]]. Varushkan merchants regularly travelled east to the great market there, while adventurous Winterfolk traders and pedlars were a common feature along the road linking the two. This came to an end with the fall of [[Skarsind]] to the [[Thule]] in 373YE. Amid concerns that the barbarians would push east into Miekarova, the people of Mormyk fortified their vale and cast expectant eyes towards the barbarian bastion that the orcs had made amid the halls of Estermark. Now Miechernya has been ceded to the Thule, the town serves as the seat of power for the warlock Vatnafjöll who is busy overseeing settlement of the area by the orcs of Otkodov.
