The Dwarf woman who tends the fire has exquisite eyes of a purple hue and a connection to the past;

>// “Many thousands of years ago, when the [[dragul|Dragul]] and the people of Nalos lived as one, a member of my kin was blessed by the Great Dragon [[beelzoth|Beelzoth]] (BEEL-zoth). Every hundred years, one of my family is born with these eyes and a great sympathy for the people of the North. The [[dragul_invasion|Dragul invaded]] us, I know, but they did not start the war. Their homeland was destroyed by those citizens of Nalos who call themselves the Starlit Door.”// - Dwarf Pit attendant, Outbreak in Undercity (RPA-ADV3)
