Lore

Drawn by a powerful greed, it was the dragons of the wastes beyond that laid siege to the Dwarf-kingdom of Grárik. First fell Ablâk-khadar, the Stormwall, and its forges were extinguished. Second fell Tharrazhâr, and its keep was shattered. Third fell Aglâmbazar, the great Glimmerdeep, and it was there Smaug the Golden made his lair. Last fell Thikil-gundu, the Steel Keep and seat of Grárik, and I need not name the great cold-drake who slew King Dáin I and his son, Frór, along with countless others. The Dwarf-kingdom of Grárik was no more.
