Entire Orc-Legion Brought Low by Three Dwarves

Earlier this month the Tablets of Khazadgund reported about the brave adventurer Kegrin Plumehelm who ventured deep in the dangerous orc-infested Halls of Moria. Till this day we have not heard any new tidings from this heroic dwarrow, yet as more companies venture into the dark heart of Moria to reclaim their Halls of old, more tidings continue to reach us from these ancient mansions.

At dawn today a tired raven flew into Thorin's Hall bearing news of a legendary accomplishment. For at what are called "the Crossroads of Ash", near the fiery pits of Moria, the last three members of a dwarf company were cornered by a large Orc-tribe. The Orcs had no doubt they would sweep away the dwarves by mere numbers, yet nothing was further from the truth. No doubt Mahal was watching over these three dwarves as not only did they survive the onslaught with nothing more than a few scratches and bruises, remarkably they slaughtered the entire Orc legion.

When the Iron Garrison Guards of Moria came to aid the three lads they feared it would be too late. Yet to their surprise they found the remains of over 20 Orcs hacked to pieces while the three dwarves were tending their minor wounds. "Never in my life, have I see something like this", added Thruli Thundernose, one of the Iron Garrison guards. "No doubt a good omen... the age of the Orc is at an end, the age of the dwarf is here!"

No doubt at such wonderful tidings more dwarven companies will be heading to Moria in the near future.
