Editing Stranded in fantasy (section)

==Journal Entry 202==

We made it to Czebron.  I first took it to be really weird mountain.  Well, it was a massive volcano at some point.  They carved the entire thing into a giant spire and hollowed it out.  It has only one main entrance gate that's large enough to fit a village and has a series of massive mechanical doors.  I believe I could call this an arcology or a hive city.  All internal lighting is almost all done through light shafts and mirrors and timed with the sun's movements and seasons through the use of mechanical devices.  At night, or places that the sunlight can't get to, they use thick glass pipes pumping some kind of glowing liquid that is also part of the forge cooling system.  It gives the whole place an otherworldly feel to it.  It uses geothermal heating to keep it warm in the winter and a massive ventilation system to keep it cool in the summer.  It houses several million dwarves.  I didn't even know construction on a scale this large was possible. This is truly a world wonder.  The interior, the parts I've seen anyways, are all inlaid marble and red granite, etchings decorating nearly every surface.  It has a massive underground where most of the dwarven smithing is done using lava powered and specialized magic powered forges.  Most of the minerals they need are mined from the area which is supposedly one of the most mineral rich locations in the continent.  So what do they do when the volcano decides it's time to erupt?  Apparently they claim to have control of the situation through generations of specialized geomantic wizards and sorcerers.  We are currently at one of the inns on the thirtieth floor.  We have a balcony with a fantastic view.  We are also now out of money.
