Kal'Ordholm is one of the [[Dwarves|dwarven]] cities, commonly known as the second port of the kingdom. Although a dwarven city, Kal'Ordholm was known to have non-dwarven societies in it, which is not suprising as the main leader and the creator of Kal'Ordholm was Ioannis Grandaxe, a known wood elf allied with Urguan. Before the Oren-Urguan war, it was known to be a placeof prosperity in all matters, from mounts to weapons. After the war however, the towns economy has weakened, but the local dwedmar of the area are gicing an effort in reviving the culture of Kal'Ordholm.
