Mine cart

Mine carts are used to travel in and out of Zul Logoth, to and from Khazar's Hold to the west and Zhindel's Post to the east. Both Khazar's Hold and Zhindel's Post have gemshops and furriers for those who forget the 1000 silver fare. Each ride takes approximately four minutes and entry and exit is automatic once the fare is paid.

When escorting to Zul Logoth for the Adventurer's Guild, travelers are taken are far as the mining carts, but one does not have to buy a ticket or ride them.

The tunnel narrows as it approaches a set of metal rails.  An endless procession of mining carts rotate along the rails, flying past at an exceptional rate of speed, and occasionally stopping to take on passengers.  Several burly dwarves stand by, directing traffic and ensuring the carts move along.  You also see a wooden gate and a wooden sign.

The dwarf carefully counts out the 1000 silvers and grunts, "You now have passage on one of the carts boarding shortly.  If you're not here and ready to go, no refunds."

The dwarf announces, "Boarding now for Person."
You hastily enter the mining cart.

The smooth walls of the large mining cart, so high it's nearly impossible to see over the tops, are grimy from years of use.  Spots of rust mark the metal, the rivets surrounded by clouds of deep red which drip down the panels.  A metal bench is mounted around the cart's sidewalls to serve as rudimentary seating.

Leaning against the rough rock walls, the skeletal remains of a humanoid can be seen as though relaxing after a hard day's labor on the tracks, pickaxe still clutched firmly in its bony hands.

The wind whips past the cart in a chaotic rush of noise as the cart speeds along the rickety track.

The cart shudders and sways, the wheels groaning loudly, as it begins to slow, finally jolting to a stop at the end of the track.

You hastily exit the cart.

Mica sparkles in the fissured granite walls of this small cavern.  A single metal lantern hangs from an iron bracket mounted on one wall, barely illuminating the area.  A carved stone arch funnels passengers out into Zul Logoth.
