Dwarves, Gnomes, and some Elven civilizations have connected the <strong>Neath<\/strong> and the Surface, as well as cults and organizations making connections for their own purposes. Many of these will be hidden from the uninitiated, be unfindable at certain times of day, or protected by a riddle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are Wandering Doors that cannot be pinpointed but are found on the Surface from time to time. They open to a staircase that can take multiple days of descent before entering the <strong>Neath<\/strong>.
