My concern with something like a 'Gelmorra Expansion' is that you're not gonna be able to hit all of those, and the expansion suffers because of it.

I think there could be a diversity of environments underground besides just stone caverns. Subterranean forests like in Journey to the Center of the Earth, for example.

But Iscah's also right, I was mainly imagining all the possibilities to explore in general for Gelmorra, and beneath the Shroud. There'd be room for other locales to fill those niches in an expansion like that.
