But I am not here to tell you how the jewel within it was brought over the ocean by Haldric the Great, nor will I tell the story of Garard I and the challenge he set, nor that of Konrad, King of Wesnoth by virtue of the Sceptre.

When all are occupied, the gates wi’ close. Then the elves will be shut out of the caves forever, at least through this entrance.
