Iron

Metal worked by smiths; deposits that yield superior metal are sought, and control of them gives leverage over arms production.

Among the dwarves

To the dwarves, iron is mild steel. They do not seek to produce or value true pure iron, which has no qualities they appreciate.

Nwyf

Iron and ferrous materials shape the flow of nwyf, in a kind of magnetic deflection, though they do not shield it completely.
