The Mistress of the Copper Mountain
The Mistress of the Copper Mountain, patroness of the miners, long governed over the riches of the Urals. The miners worshipped her and gave her their offerings in exchange for taking pieces of her treasure. If her heart desired, she would grant the miners with plenty. But upon deceiving her, their fate would be thwarted. Along came the Grand Red Dream with its endless ambitions, bringing new technologies that would shape and change the mountains. The promises of this new dream lured the miners away from the mistress, and she soon risked being forgotten. But then came a new intelligence, and the mistress saw her chance to rise and return to prominence.
