'I want to restore the glory I believe we have lost in denying our history. It is time to tell the tales of past battles in Khazad-dûm. Not to my fellow dwarves, for they will not appreciate them; to truly honour those who have fallen, we must tell our tale to those figures of lore. Of course, this is not truly possible, but we may still honour their memory in another way.

'Go into the gardens and stand before the statues that rest at the centre, and to the north, and before the southern fountain. There, recount the story of the great battle.

'Those who fell died in battle and in honour. They should forever be remembered for their valour.'
