Following the
Gnomengrade Incident, the
Kingdom of Dam Lodir mobilized an entire division into the
Navaran Eastern Frontier. The 6,000 dwarves decimated both the forces of
Aderian Royal Army and those of
Osternfel that still remained in the foothills of the
Northern Amadels and
Taldir's Gate.
While securing the foothills, a single demolition battalion was sent along with a few members of the
Col'bhen Cint'nias towards
Eastwatch Garrison, where they met with fierce resistance. The battle lasted 5 days and ended when the entire east wing of the fort, along with its command caenter and main barracks were blown up in the first documented use of dwarven explosives in
Lake Kadia.
After the garrison was taken, the
Kai of
Dam Lodir sent an envoys to the
Sovereign of Ader the
Taldirian Townmasters and leaders and prominent members of the
Andorian Church and summoned them to a
peace summit in his capital. Non of the invited dignitaries dared refusing the invitation, and mediation took nearly a full year.
