Kuldotha, the Great Furnace, is a massive furnace-city once used by the goblins of Mirrodin for the creation of utilities and the practice of their religion.[1] Kuldotha is also referred to by the goblins of the Oxidda Chain as Steel Mother, a deity they believe created the plane.[2]
Description
Molten metal is produced in the fires of Kuldotha. The goblins erroneously believed they tended its fires, and treated the Furnace as their church.[2] It was believed by the goblins that by sacrificing all metals and dead bodies to the furnace, the objects and souls would be returned to the Steel Mother, and keep the Furnace running for her. The melted metal from sacrificed bodies was reclaimed and reforged into goblin “ancestor machines.”
Since the Phyrexianization, Kuldotha has become the main gateway into Mirrodin's Core, guarded by Urabrask. The structure has developed into a quasi-alive entity through a rich diet of mycosynth. It already had a sort of digestive system, and as time passes, it also seems to have moods and tempers. Too many impurities sicken it, and a steady supply of rich, pure ore and metal keep it quiet. How this quasi-alive state will evolve is anyone's guess.
