== Economy ==
The economy of Zietal Mar was quite varied. The nature of the outposts isolation left them with little connection to Bormar's extensive trade networks. As a result, the Outpost was entirely self-sufficient, and a great variety of goods could be found in its walls.
The first bank of Zietal Mar, built and run by [[Moddoh Surjah|'''Moddoh Surjah''']], utilised a simple currency of stamped gold nuggets, laconically labelled 'Banker Coins'.
 
=== Local Currency ===
Due to its far-flung status and tenuous hold on the island, Bormar belnings were never issues to the Outpost, and the Dwarves of Zietal Mar were allowed to create their own coinage. The first bank of Zietal Mar, built and run by [[Moddoh Surjah|'''Moddoh Surjah''']], utilised a simple currency of stamped gold nuggets, laconically labelled 'Banker Coins'.
 
Despite its simplicity, the coinage quickly gained a small hold, with traders and shopkeepers using it as their go-to currency. Unfortunately, with not too many services available and a glut of gold ore within the mines, the currency had few uses.

The Outpost itself did not hold any specific beliefs, other than maintaining its own '''[[Deeptunnel]]'''.
 
Strangely, Zietal Mar was home to a single 'priest' who devoted himself primarily to the [[Loving God|'''Loving God''']]. This priest, [[Sigmarr Thoruva|'''Sigmarr Thoruva''']], was usually around for ceremonial events and other gatherings, but more often than not kept to himself in a large statue of the Loving God, that he had carved himself.
