Editing The Grudge Of Drong (section)

===The Brewery Bash===
Knowing Drong would immediately resume plans to take her throne, Helgar dispatched her guards to capture his Brewmaster who had recently relocated his Brewery to the entrance to Krag Bryn's mines.
Largs was his name, and he was too inebriated to awaken and too fat to carry when Drong's forces had fled.

After sealing him in a large copper vessel, Helgar issued an ultimatum to her ex; swear fealty and forsake all Grudges, or Largs's last brew would fill his lungs.

Drong, who's clan loyalty relied on his "free ale" socialist policy developed during the clan's impoverished days (based on the principle that when a Dwarf says "I'm going to have an ale" any of his brothers can say "So shall I!") was horrified.
After a few days of horrid sobriety and more than a few Fell Moods, Drong gathered his most loyal (and desperate) Dwarfs and sent them to return with Largs or not at all. They were lead by a mysterious Dwarf known only as Skag the Stealthy.
Eldroth's spies tipped Helgar off to the force's departure, but Helgar found that the warriors still loyal to her (mostly Slayers) refused to harm a Dwarf in search of ale. She once again requested Eldroth's aid, and he dispatched one of his most trusted servants, an Elf known as Ardath the Vengeful (with a personality more Dawi than Asur), to aid her.

Ardath's forces surrounded the Brewery, firing arrows from within and warded with magic. Skag's Thunderers alternated between peppering the right flank of the Elves with gunfire and keeping the Silver Helms at bay. Skag split his assault force in two, one large unit of Slayers followed by his Ironbreakers and sent them towards the front of the Brewery. After the spells and arrows of the Elves, most of the Slayers lay dead while the Ironbreakers struggled to pass their mounds of corpses before falling to the same fate. Refusing to flee, the Hammerers pressed on in a last-ditch <strike>waddle</strike> charge. Ardath lead the Silver Helms to meet them, but suffered great casualties as Thunderers, Hammerers, and Quarrelers all focused on them.

The Elves managed to hold the Brewery until nightfall, when they were reinforced by Tol Eldroth. Rather than return and admit his shame, Skag took the Slayer Oath and returned years later under a new name in Queen Helgar's service.
