	In approximately 990BR, Gammelgard was founded on the remains of an abandoned fishing Hamlet the dwarves had discovered in their search for a new home after the [[Holy War]]. As the story goes, these original founding dwarves hailed from some '''[[The Citadel of Huldus\|now lost dwarven stronghold]]''' that existed in the Snowy Northern mountains about two days travel east from the town. Why the dwarves could not or did not return to the mountain is unknown but the rumors abound. Some say the dwarves that remained behind were left unguarded and were slaughtered by monsters. When the dwarves returned, the stronghold was overrun and in ruins . Other stories say the dwarves who left to fight in the war had angered or dishonored Moradin somehow. They and all their descendants were banned from ever returning under the mountain.

 This area of the town is a collection of shops that sell all manner of wares. The shops surround a grassy, tree speckled commons that, once a month during the warmer seasons, hosts a large trade event known as Grand Market Day. Craftsmen and traders from all over the continent and sometimes from abroad will bring their wares to sell at this market. This market functions as an advantageous time for the local shops as well as the cloister to acquire sometimes hard to get items and materials. Though this event is only once a month, it is common for the shops to host a smaller Market Day once a week that, while a bit smaller, draws in craftsmen and traders from the wider region around Gammelgard and commonly becomes a popular social gathering for townspeople.
