they came into the dustwallow march where there are alot of undeads these mid aged dwarfs wernt scared of anything they had seen alot in the human city.
for tagdar who whas the youngest he whas 122 now, dorbin whas second whit his 140 and gagna 160.
they where walking in the marches when a hands came out of the bodems and grabed them, mind you in those 40 years they recieved better gear.
in seconds the hands where chopped off as it whas nothing they where nothing as they had there first encounter.
tagdar: tis be dangerous grounds it seems
gagna: nay doubt
dorbin: i dun like tis place
they came onto a place sum sort of alter it seemed whit a doorway down ofcourse they gone in.
tagdar: stop bumbin inta me
dorbin: arg to dark like it be me faulth
gagna: hush you two or ya wonna get killed wifout seeing it commin im pullin out me belt wif light.
tag&dor: aye tis be better fanks
they where walkin slowly they where hearing chants a few passes away they got closer and saw a door.
and they whispered
dorbin: should we burst in
gagna: doubt we be welcome
tagdar: well sumfing in an undead place only means one fing enemy's
they all agreed they drunk some potions and where ready.
tagdar busted the door went in and saw that they where offering children after a few good hits the cultists where the ones ready for offering but for the kids they came to late.
tagdar: arg tis be sad lads very sad poor poor kids
gagna: lad im almost pukin lets get out
dorbin *already by the door*: cant agree more wif gagna lets go
so they headed out whit haste to the upstairs where the sun shine, they walked the amrches further and further now and then an undead popping up but taken care of whit eas.
they got out it been weeks since they left the city and they where camping on the middle of an open field.

dorbin: i miss good ol grok
tagdar: aye ta lad wos dumb but fun good in battle no doubt
dorbin: good wif an axe indeed
gagna: glad he whas on our side
tagdar: ... ssst lads i ear sumfing
dorbin: trows an trowin axe into the dark and hears a body droppin on the floor
they went checking out.
dorbin:seems like a spy or scout indeed
tagdar: i fink we might ave ta wrong place ta camp lads i ear more fings
as they gone back to there fire it seemed in the dark on both sides armies where making ready for a battle and they where in the middle of it relaxing and eating pork whit ale.
then the sun started to rise.
gagna: yar right i ear it to more an more voices or sum
tagdar: told ya idiot
dorbin: uhm lads i fink we might ave a problem ere
tagdar: by moradins forge
gagna: may our god ave mercy on us
dorbin: wot ya lads sayed i second tat
they realised that they where in the middle of a battlefield that whas getting started.
on both sides horseman came riding towards them.
scoth: hear me hear me your in the way please join us or die whit the enemy
the second one comming from the other side
murphy: hah enemy your the enemy join us and taste victory
*the dwarfs looked at them and started laughing*
/ horsemen: what is so funny master dwarfs
then tagdar noticed that scoth had the emblem of the place they called 40 years home
tagdar: lads he be wearin tanaris emblem
gagna&dorbin:oy right ya be
scoth: yes i am from the city i recognise you fair dwarfen lords now war is upon us they seek to destroy our city we rided out to meet them on the field.
gagna: is tat so mhhhh *taps axe on hand*
muprhy:i see im not welcome youl die dwarfs all of you
dorbin: ok well go aid ta army then ya go ahead advance tis way wil walk towards ya
scoth: ok
they where now among the ranks of the army infront of them an army looking vile angry and mercyless humans all whit one thing on there minds killing.
the enemy army whas great the soldiers had dark armor with gry red and black on them they had big shields whit the emblem of there town, the helmets looked like they came from hell only eyes you could see that looked red strange marks where on the armors and helmets, the swords where a tad curved not straight like the tanaris army.
the two armies stood for some time in the middle the fire of the dwarfs old camp still burned, then all of the sudden it went out and the armies rushed in onto one another.
tagdar jumped up whit his axe slamed a sword down and bodychecked the enemy whit his towershield and then finished it whit a blow from his axe,
he swung his axe arund him dodging swinging he gone into a trance a trance of war people died around him and befor him.
then he got hit on the head but his helmet protected him he fell on the ground but still whas clear in the head he turned around kicked the atacker down and put a small knife into the enemy's head stood up and resumed his atack.
the tanaris army looked bad if thy wouldnt win.
dorbin who ofcourse also whas fighting for his life whas dooing a pretty good job he wasnt as fat as tagdar or gagna so he whas more agyle, he dodged most atacks and just as easely countered them till one came whit a whip and disarmed dorbin then he could only fence off whit his shield, dorbin fell to the ground and grabbed a sword of a dead body then he stood up the whip came again but the sword whas sharp enough to cut it trough then he charged and the sword went trough the actacker then he grabbed his hammer and went on.
gagna had a hard time he whas at the part where it whas pretty rough and most people died in his area he saw more men go then come,
he tryed his bests id have to say he rushed into the group whit a rage unknown to men he whas able to cut trough armors and shields even swords would splinter when he hitted it so much anger and strength he gained at the rage, after moments he whas in a circle cause they wached out to atack but gagna himself came barging in whit suces alot died on his hands and so that side could advance on that field, but for a price as tagdar and dorbin where fighting they did not saw eachother, gagna charged again only to find himself facing a archer who whas thinking not to die alone and he shot gagna in the right shoulder wich made him loose force in his blows the archer did died for that shot,
gagana tryed and tryed but his strength got less and less when suddenly he got stabbed by a sword from behind he fell to the ground turn around and got the guys knee's another came and stabbed gagna in the chest he trowed his axe into his face, and that whas the last atack gagna ever did he died on that battlefield like a hero.
tagdar whas still fighting whas wounded by now scraches and sum cut wounds they where on the winning hand.
dorbin also pretty unharmed only a arrow in his left leg but that didnt stopped old dorbin.
the battle whas won and dorbin and tagdar saw eachother and where happy to see one another, then they realised they missed one of them
tagdar: lad ya seen gagna?
dorbin: nay i finked he wos wif ya
tagdar: oh by moradins beards lets search
there they found him impaled whit a sword in the chest and dead enemy's around him one caught there eye it whas the one that gave the final blow the one whit an axe in his face.
tagdar: tis be sad may moradin ave his soul an may he return to ta great halls wif his clan
dorbin: may moradin have yar soul an may ta ale in ta great halls be better then ere
soldier: im sorry master dwarfs for your loss shall we take him to our city??
tagdar: nay he be burried ere whee he died we shall see to tat
after all the bodies where gone they dug a whole put gagna in it whit some ale bottles and his gear shield on the chest and the axe beside, they closed the whole they dugged out and after they where done they empty'd some ale on the grave *may moradin recieve ya lad*
they searched for a stone carved in it *here lies gagna ironshield hero of these fields lived whit honor died whit honor*
the two dwarfs payed there respects and left
