Serpent's Tail Mine

The Serpent's Tail Mine was located west of Water Hammer City, [1] in the section of the Great Wall of the North known as the Dragon mountains. It contained the invaluable trifecta of gold, iron, and jade. [2] The Mine was a geological oddity—two, rich veins of ore, one of gold and one of iron, twisted and writhed through the mountain, to the point where they were essentially braided together. It was believed that these were the tracks left in the rock of two, powerful spirits, one of Fire (the gold) and one of Earth (the iron) which escaped from the massive volcano known as Wrath of the Kami; bitter rivals, they chased one another through the earth, leaving these convoluted trails of metal in their wake. A shrine to the two spirits had been built at the entrance to the mine, and offerings were made to appease the wrathful spirits and ensure they remained asleep. [1]
