Editing Dwarfs (Warhammer Fantasy) (section)

===Chaos (Orphans)===
When the Warp Gates collapsed into portals to the [[Warp]] and the Old Ones vanished, Valaya made a home in Karaz-a-Karak and blessed the first two great pillars within. Both Dwarfs and Elves in Warhammer mark this time as the start of recorded history, with the exact Dwarf calendar beginning in -5500 according to the calendar of the humans of the setting (so the Dwarf 4493 is the human year 0).

One hundred and two years later Grungni created the Throne Of Power which is the property of the High King of the Dwarfs, giving it to his son Snorri Whitebeard. Grimnir met the Elf [[Aenarion]] during his travels as an explorer and the two races began diplomacy as the only other civilized people they had encountered (Dwarfs had met the humans of [[Nehekhara]], but the relations were not exactly friendly and the not-Egyptians were fairly primitive compared to the Dwarfs at the time).

One year after that, Grimnir marched into the Chaos Wastes to defeat the [[Daemon|Daemons]] and [[Warriors of Chaos|human Chaos-worshipers]] and wound up alone in a fortress inside the Warp after closing the Chaos Gate that allowed Daemons to walk straight into the material plane, where he fought the united forces of Chaos for the rest of time. Valaya hid in a forgotten Vault called Valaya's Gate where she could pool her magic and create a magical device to brings Dwarfs back to a golden age if they ever faltered. Grungni's fate is unknown, although he didn't die.

During this time, several Dwarfs got separated and found themselves in an inhospitable wasteland. What happened next is shrouded in mystery, but began when their children started dying of sickness. When they were eventually engulfed by the corrupting influence of Chaos, they turned from the Ancestor Gods to the daemon Hashut and became the [[Chaos Dwarfs]]. The rest of the Dwarfs promptly unpersoned them, declaring them eternal enemies of all Dwarfs who revere the Ancestor Gods, and any relatives they had among the main population committed mass suicide out of shame.
