Guk Nakskark (Theessa Notta Cavea)

Created by Notwen Ekim

Guk Nakskark, roughly translated from goblin to common as Theessa Notta Cavea, is a hidden and ancient underground realm that lies deep beneath the bustling city of Timber Falls. Long before the arrival of human settlers, this vast cavern system was once protected by the combined magic of elves and human arcane practitioners, who sealed the entrance to prevent the goblins from invading the lands of Hyperion. However, the grand construction of Timber Falls' elitist neighborhood and it's nefarious activities has broken this ancient seal, and the goblins are now poised to emerge to the lands once hidden to them. The underground entrance to the Theessa Notta Cavea is marked by intricate petroglyphs, including the inscription Guk Nakskark that translates to "This is not a cave" in the goblin tongue. Another set can be seen on each of its side walls of the entrance spelling Goff, Hash Golin "Gone, No Goblins" and Gak.Tok Krr! "Stop. No Entry." The narrow tunnel leading into the cavern is shrouded in pitch-black darkness, challenging any who dare to venture forth. Once through the tunnel, travelers are greeted by the grand, sprawling caverns that serve as the home of the goblin horde. The history of this forgotten realm is shrouded in mystery, but it is clear that it has played a pivotal role in the ancient struggles between the forces of light and darkness that have shaped the lands of Hyperion. With the seal broken, the people of Timber Falls could face the looming threat of a goblin invasion, and the fate of the city may well depend on the actions of brave explorers and adventurers who are willing to delve into the depths of the Theessa Notta Cavea.
