Battle of the Riven Mountain
This battle was the biggest martial conflict in the history of
the Dreaming. It was waged between
the Sidhe and the Trolls for the right to rule the Dreaming. The battle took place at
Undermountain.
The incident which precipitated the war was the Judgment of Balor.
Important figures in the battle, and their deeds:
-
Deep Giant led
the Trolls in battle. He
almost defeated Lord
Gwydion twice in personal
combat, but was killed by Lady
Eiluned.
-
Lord Aelil only
appears at the end of the battle, in the Halls of the Mountain King
when Lord Gwydion storms
it. By appearances, at least, he is on the side of the Trolls.
-
Lord Balor
betrayed his fellow Sidhe by not
participating, along with his House, in
the battle. Instead, he took control of
Arcadia.
-
Lord Dougal
gave his sword to Lord Gwydion when the latter had his
own blade broken by Deep
Giant. He went on to kill lots
of Trolls with
his bare hands.
-
Lady Eiluned
arrived halfway through the battle, just in
time for her to rescue Lord
Gwydion by killing Deep Giant.
-
Lady Fiona
generally fought well. A sterling second in
command to Lord
Gwydion.
-
Lord Gwydion
led the Sidhe. Had his sword break
when he was fighting Deep
Giant. Lord Dougal gave
him his own sword, but the Troll had moved on. They later engaged
again, and Lord Gwydion was
losing, when Lady Eiluned
showed up and killed Deep
Giant.
-
Lord Leanhaun
betrayed his fellow Sidhe by not
participating, along with his House, in the battle.
-
Lord Liam
did nothing too spectacular.
-
Lord Scathach
- No idea. Something nifty.
-
Mountain
King was killed by Lord
Gwydion.
