Battle of Weg Pass

The Battle of Weg Pass was a conflict between Alaftharian dwarven forces and Kinshra and Asgarnian troops.

Prelude
During the greater part of the month of Septober, Kinshra and Asgarnian forces battled against each other on their way north from Falador. Foreseeing fighting within the Kingdom of Alaftharia, King Owen III sent letters to both King Raddallin III and Lord Henry Howe to inform both sides that trespass by armed men through Alaftharia would not be tolerated. Owen requested troops from Fodina to accompany him as he guarded the Weg Pass from trespass, knowing that any passage would traverse the Pass.

Battle
As Kinshra troops, weary from 21 days of constant fighting, filtered through the pass in the early hours of the 5th of Ire of Phyrrys, mechanical and ranger dwarven units spread out along the ridges to either side of the Pass. On command, the dwarves let loose into the Kinshra mass. Asgarnian troops that had been trailing the Kinshra force jumped into the fray, believing it to be a trap for the Kinshra. As the dwarves began to pick off their men, Asgarnian commanders ordered a swift retreat, and the Kinshra soon followed suit.

Aftermath
The casualties alone decimated the Kinshra's offensive capabilities for the rest of the war, and led to a demoralization of troops. The Kinshra would be left to fend of vindictive attacks by Asgarnia and to find an alternate route back to Durcheinander.

The dwarven assault, accompanied by King Owen led to an increase in loyalty to Owen by the dwarves of Fodina, and would eventually lead to the integration of dwarves into regular Alaftharian forces
