The [[Verdantis Mines]] are in the northern tip of the [[Mariah Mountains]] in the [[Verdantis]] region which can be found in the northwest of Novia. The elves of the region have been mining these mountains for many years and recently they broke through to an ancient underground city full of rich ore nodes and other treasures. Unfortunately it is also full of undead and, in its deepest places, Fire and Earth Elementals.

Verdantis Mines is a Tier 5 Adventuring Area.

  • The Verdantis Mines are in the northern tip of the Mariah Mountains in the Verdantis region which can be found in the northwest of Novia. The elves of the region have been mining these mountains for many years and recently they broke through to an ancient underground city full of rich ore nodes and other treasures. Unfortunately it is also full of undead and, in its deepest places, Fire and Earth Elementals.
  • A group of elves have uncovered a hidden city while mining for ore. The elves have taken the opportunity to loot the artifacts and precious ores that were left behind when the city was flooded with magma in a natural disaster. Their disruption has awoken the undead, who they now fight for control of the city.[1][2]
