: No, a "province" would be shown on the map as
: an area such as (and woah, sit down when you read
: this) "The Province". Cities are on the map
: with a picture when they're major affairs, and as dots
: when they're just minor stopping points in the game.

: I'm not discounting the possibility that the dwarves
: have/use caves. But nothing in the game suggests that
: they actually live in them, nor that the city is built
: in them. Nor why a tower would be used to defend a
: cave entrance, when two dwarves with a supply of
: cocktails could do just as well.

: Myrgard was destroyed by the ghols. Ghols frequently are
: seen exiting and entering caves in the game, which
: suggests more readily that the ghols live in caves,
: and want Myrgard and Stoneheim because of that. The
: Dwarves, on the other hand, build over the caves,
: since (and get this) most people know that bat guano
: (bat's being cave residents) is often used as a source
: of salt pewter (I think that's the stuff) in the
: making of gunpowder. Dwarves like explosives, so do
: the math.

: Again, no proof yea or nay for where the dwarves live.
: But I strongly diagree with putting them in caves
: simply because most fantasy stories do (even Norse
: myth, actually). After all, how hard would it be to
: put a picture of a cave on the map if that's where
: Bungie intended them to live?

: --Stinger

the picture on the map looks like this

and the middle is greyed out

it looks like a cave to me...

think about this

theres a big giant mountain
they build a big giant tower on the door you have to go in the tower to get in through the cave door

they live in AND on the door

oh and if dwarves didnt like to mine down below

how is this possible

"Dwarven legend tells of spiders that grow larger than humans, living unchecked in the deepest bowels of the earth"

it doesnt just say 'legend' it specifically says DWARVERN legend so theres your proof that they inhabit caves, deep deep deep caves
