===== Text: =====
The Stone Folk have long been a part of [[:Fabernum|Fabernum's]] history. Before they retreated beneath the mountain, [[:Huergar|Huérgar]] are said to have frequented the town.

It was the //Huérgar// that the people here learned the specific methods of refining and smelting that //Fabernum// is now famous for.

After [[:The Conflux]], several families of //Huérgar// decided to stay on //Fabernum// instead of joining their brethren in retreating to the world below.

Although outsiders who know little of the //Huérgar// would paint them as a monolith, there are many divisions of thought and mannerisms among them even when considering the //Huérgar// found in //Fabernum// in comparison to those found in [[:Tindrem]].

The //Huérgar// in //Fabernum//, although they hold their own values and reside in their own community, tend to be less involved in social climbing than those in //Tindrem//. Many are quite content to live as the //Fabernumites// do, focusing on their crafts and what they can offer to the //Provinces// and the communities around them.

Historically, there was also a small trickle of [[:Blainn]] from their settlement of [[:Hyllspeia#Old Hyllspêia|Old Hyllspêia]] up in the //Talus Mountains//. Although their influence was small, it can be felt in the small injection of [[:Nordveld|Nordveldian]] names specifically inspired by the //Blainn// tongue of [[:Blainn#Lisan Ki|Lisan Ki]]. Most, however, follow the principles of [[:Huergar#Lisan Abnu|Lisan Abnu]], the //Huérgar// dialect.
