Overview

Sungold Pass lies high in the Opascari mountains. It was discovered by the Empire in the wake of a terrible storm that wracked northern Varushka shortly after the Autumn Equinox 381YE.

The Pass

The Henk Incident

In Spring 383YE, the Minister for Historical Research, Caleb of the Cenotaph, commissioned historical research into Sungold Pass. As part of the commission, Snowstorm Henk of the Imperial Orcs lead a small team of researchers up to the pass. While exploring the area, the civil servants were taken prisoner by the Thule who accused them of espionage.

While captive, Snowstorm Henk was able to pass some information about the Pass to a civil servant allowed into the Thule camp to ensure the Imperial citizens were in good health. Thanks to the intercession of Yevgeni Katzev, Ambassador to Otkodov, the orc and his companions were released unharmed shortly before the Summer Solstice.

On his return, Snowstorm Henk set to work compiling his notes as part of a report for the Imperial Archivist about the Pass, and the provenance of the mines beneath.
