Orreg no more

The true horrors of the Goblin invasion of the mines are becoming apparent as the Dwarves begin to talk of their experiences. Most of the Dwarves speak of how a strange mist rolled into the mines, and then they remember no more until they were all in one of the large caverns and surrounded by Goblins.

It was here that Orreg stood to defend his people from the Goblins, and fought so bravely that he almost reached the Great Goblin before being carried off into the lower deeps. Later that day shocking news spread throughout the cavern that the Goblins had in fact taken Orreg down to the pre-annihilation deeps and thrown him into the ancient chasm. Orreg was my friend, and I feel the loss too.

Following the murder of Orreg, the Goblins split the Dwarves into three work parties and marched them North through the tunnels into three seperate areas where they were forced to dig caverns and tunnels in search of the fire crystal. Those Dwarves that were either too old or weak to dig were taken from the groups and have not been seen again.

As I look around me now I see a broken race of Dwarves seeking answers. We cannot give them what they need, but we can offer them support and the promise that we will never let Yermej and his Goblin army win.
