Hammerforge clearing the way of enemies during the battle at Aegrethond

 

It was on the 13th of The Grand Harvest 1788 that Redwin hammerforge led his brothers and cousins Grimrodd, Grodd, Molack, Mrywynn, and Thavior into battle against the inferni. Tasked with protecting the medical bay that had gotten overrun he led his clan to jump down into the waters below and attack the enemy from behind. The enemy had breached the lower walls and we’re pouring into the medical bay killing all around them. Hammerforge might and resolve was thrust into the back of the enemy as the proud clan poured in from the breach the enemies had made. The inferni caught off guard by the sudden attack from the rear and the few that stood at the entrance were hastily cut down. Pushing forward the enemy had been alerted of the flanking movement and moved to form a shield wall to prevent them from attacking further into their ranks. The hammerforge clan moved into that all too famous dwarven shield wall and crushed line after line of inferni soldiers each shocked to see their friends cut down with such vigor and vengeance. They cleared out some 25 inferni from those small halls in the medical bay crushing any resistance before linking up with the main dwarven unit.

 

Dwarves fighting the chaotic enemies in the depths of Aegrethond

 

The battle below the gate entrance of Aegrethond was brutal as a stream of fresh enemies had gotten pinned down in the depths of Aegrethond broke off from the group that had flooded in from the medical bay. It was Redwin again who jumped from the side of the walkway down to the bridge below crushing the head of the nearest inferni soldier and pushing the demons back into a cavern hallway. There they hacked and slashed their way through another 15 enemies clearing the entire hallway of all the demonic filth. Pushing back up again to the main battle a giant gorilla had jumped clean across the motte and killed a few elves. The main dwarven line led by Dimlin Irongut Joined the HRA and sallied forth to kill the creature. Redwin led his dwarves on a flanking mission once more and jumping down from the ramparts landed next to the giant beast and by a working ballista. Him and his clan manned the machine and blasted round after round into the creature’s gut aiding his brothers in arms fighting at the main gate before watching the creature rear up and be shoved back into the motte below dying. The army was routing and the enemy had been pushed back, the battle was all but won. However, before the kegs were opened and the day called the enemy general Tichar cast an evil spell killing many defenders before his death. Including the mighty Grodd hammerforge who died that day from various wounds inflicted on him by the enemy.

FROM THE DESK OF THE HIGH PROPHET

 

It is honorable the courage that Grodd Hammerforge had shown during the siege of Aegrothond, and a pity that such would lead to his death. And for that reason, I believe it would be entirely fit for him to be shown a proper burial and blessing of Dungrimm. Should Redwin Hammerforge permit, da Kirkja Dverga would like to hold a funeral feast in the honor of Grodd Hammerforge. Please contact myself or Prelate Dakkon Grimgold so that such may be arranged.
