Posied Hill

Posied Hill is an area somewhere in Dominaria where a clan of dwarves live. It is wooded and covered in fields of posies, hence the name.^[1]

History[ | ]

A protracted siege was held near Posied Hill when Lady Karin Amberly bid Captain Grinstable lay claim to the castle of the evil Lord Dane Isely. The siege was supposed to be a simple affair, with Amberly's troops and siege equipment being far superior to the small castle's defenses. However, a long bout of rainy weather hampered the siege, turning the valley floor to mud, collapsing siege tunnels, rusting bolts, softening the wood of the catapults, and severely draining the army's morale. After the army started cutting trees and stomping around Posied Hill, the dwarves who lived there sent a small troop led by Glemp to parley with Grinstable. Glemp had brought her Dwarven Demolition Team led by Eod to bear and offered their services in return for Grinstable leaving Posied Hill alone. Grinstable agreed, and the demolition squad spent a single day rigging the explosives. Just as the fuse was lit, Grinstable told the dwarves that the castle was supposed to be claimed on behalf of Lady Amberly, not destroyed. It was too late, however - the explosives reduced the entire castle into a giant crater, which quickly filled with the downpour and became an impassable lake.^[1]
