| - | One of the great tragedies of the war involved the [[creatures:elf|elves]]. When [[atlas:Stoneheart Hold]] was the only hold still standing, several dwarven armies came to the [[atlas:stoneheart mountains|great mountain range]] to plunder its riches. Before they could reach the Hold [[people:thorin stoneheart|King Thorin]] gathered up the those unable to fight and sent them to the safety of the elven sanctuary of [[atlas:Ellendar]]. When the dwarven refugees reached the elven barrier they were turned back and denied the safety of the forest. With no where else to go, the refugees encamped just at the end of the forest. Warriors of the [[lore:Darkstone clan]] arrived and fell upon the refugee camp killing with gleeful abandon. | + | One of the great tragedies of the war involved the [[creatures:elf|elves]].

| While the dwarves of Stoneheart fought off the bloodthirsty Darkstone warriors, the elves in the forest refused to offer their aid. The Stoneheart refugees knew the elves were watching them and could have offered either their aid or the safety of their wood, but no word came from the forest. Finally, when the land was slick with dwarven blood and the refugees reduced to a tenth of their starting numbers the sky blackened with arrows an fell among the Darkstone clan. Five more volleys flew from the forest until the Darkstone were no more. | While the dwarves of Stoneheart fought off the bloodthirsty Darkstone warriors, the elves in the forest refused to offer their aid.
