During the early years following the opening of the Starways, Human explorers charting nearby systems encountered Kragmor the homeworld of the Dwarves. At the time, the Dwarven civilizations were highly advanced in craftsmanship and metallurgy but remained within an early industrial age. To them, the arrival of towering starships and beings from beyond the sky was nothing short of divine revelation.
The Dwarves initially regarded the humans as celestial envoys, beings of immense knowledge who walked among the stars. Rather than conquest, the first encounters were met with awe and reverence. Humans, recognizing both the ingenuity and potential of the Dwarven people, chose cooperation over dominance. Through open exchange, they shared technology, scientific understanding, and broader knowledge of the galaxy.
In time, the Dwarves adapted these teachings to their own traditions, blending advanced engineering with their ancestral craft. A formal alliance was forged, uniting the Dwarven holds under a single banner and establishing lasting peace between their peoples. This moment marked the Dwarves’ first step into the wider galaxy and the beginning of a long-standing alliance with the humans.
