The Pit
The crematorium of Undercity where the dead are burned.
Acrid black smoke pours over you from the corridor ahead. Choking your way forward, you find yourself at the bottom of a high, narrow shaft. In a stone-walled pit, a Dwarf woman is prodding a noxious fire. - Outbreak in Undercity (RPA-ADV3)

The Pit is stoked by a Dwarf woman;
The smell is awful and the smoke is thick. A Dwarf woman burns the dead and throws their belongings into a pile in the corner. - Outbreak in Undercity (RPA-ADV3)
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 and the people of Nalos lived as one, a member of my kin was blessed by the Great Dragon 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 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)
