Cyneberg tells you of the first attack on Forlaw by the White Hand. Not long ago, while Cyneberg was in Scylfig and before Thrymm left to join her, Thrymm and the twin sons of Gárwig courageously defended Forlaw from a large Orc attack.
Edsig and Gárferth are prepared to defend the city of Forlaw, or die trying. They are encouraged by Thrymm's arrival, knowing that he could probably single-handedly defeat the attacking Orcs.
The Orcs have arrived with a rather large raiding party. This attacking force is quite possibly the largest to ever march on the city of Forlaw.
The Orcs marching on Forlaw are almost defeated, but the worst is yet to come. They are spurred on by two lumbering and brutal war-trolls.
The enemy attack has been broken, and Forlaw remains unscathed. However, that this many Orcs are marching on the roads of Wildermore is troubling.
