Dragon Age: Origins World Update

BioWare's official Dragon Age: Origins website has been updated with information, concept art, and screenshots for the dwarven city of Orzammar.
History tells us that the dwarven kingdoms once spread across all of Thedas, and that the underground city fortresses called thaigs were almost beyond counting. Kal Sharok was the capital then, home to all the noble houses, and Orzammar was simply the home of the miner and smith castes. It is an awe inspiring sight, a great city of stone standing within a vast cavern, poised over a sea of molten lava. There the forges ring loudest, and the finest smiths create works that are the envy of all races. Countless thaigs were lost in the first Blight, when the darkspawn poured out of the Deep Roads like smoke. With each generation, more of the Deep Roads had to be sealed, more thaigs lost forever. Now only Orzammar stands the last bastion of the dwarven race and its finest creation.
