The Dark is the common-tongue translation of the dwarven name for the deepest portions of The Deeps, the continental network of passages, caves, and sounds below the surface of Wisteria. The Dark is by far the most lawless portion of the Deeps, and argument rages for almost any given part of it whether the caves are natural or artificial.
The Dark is viewed as unbelievably dangerous. A Dwarvish saying, rendered into our speech, contends that "If you found a monster, you are in the Deeping. If what you found is aberrant, you're in The Dark." Myths and Legends speak of openings in the Dark that breach the planes, leading to Hell or Pandemonium or the Abyss.
The Dark is largely not used by the dwarves for much of anything, and is considered too dangerous to traverse. However, the lone exception is a dwarven fortress-city known as Khaz Duersterkrak, which straddles the border between a portion of The Deeping and several passages considered to lead into The Dark]].
