Danger - Exploration - Adventure

I'm sure the mountains doesn't pose much of a threat at all. There's nothing out there aside from a few clans of barbarian dwarves, the odd goblin tribe, and a few rogue earth spirits. Little danger to those such as you who wear stout armor, carry sharp swords and wirld mighty spells. Of course, you might accidentally stumble into a patch of fire vines and be forced to take off your armor when your skin breaks out in festering blisters. The goblins are little match in a stand-up fight, but if they drop boulders on you like they usually do those swords will only weigh you down as you try to run away. As for your spells, a blast of fire might singe the dwarf berserkers, but the explosion is liable to bring half the mountain down on your head.

As I said, you shouldn't have much to fear. The dwarves are fools who gladly throw themselves on spears and lances, the goblins are poorly trained and flee at the first sign of danger, and the earth spirits are no match for your spells.
