Mines' End
The Gnomish Mines end at level 8 or 9 of the mines and will always contain a luckstone. There are three versions of Mine's End.
Version 1: The Mimic of the Mines
This level contains 7 secret doors; behind one of them is the luckstone, other piles also contain a loadstone and mimics at random

Version 2: The Gnome King's Wine Cellar
This version contains six guaranteed potions of booze (as the name would suggest). The luckstone is at the chamber in the far right; the blank tiles are rock that needs to be dug out to reach this chamber. The chamber also contains two each of diamonds, rubies, and amethysts, and three emeralds, as well as a few random gems.

Version 3: The Catacombs
The mazes in this level are randomly generated. The level 'walls', the large chambers and the possible locations of the luckstone are fixed. There are three possible locations of the luckstone, the others cantaining nothing and a flint stone. The luckstone and flint stone lie on a level teleporter.
