In his dying moments, he pulled the lever once more and trapped the Primordial. Only during their venture Valindra Shadowmantle summoned a Pit Fiend who, while defeated, proved to be the downfall of Bruenor Battlehammer. Athrogate proved unable to resist the influence and pulled the lever, thus releasing the Primordial.Ī decade later, 1462 DR, the Primordial once again began to stir and so Bruenor Battlehammer, Drizzt Do'Urden, Dahlia Sin'felle, Jarlaxle Baenre, and Athrogate set out to trap the beast once more. When Dahlia, Jarlaxle and Athrogate made it to the room housing the lever to release the Primordial, Dor'crae the Vampire 'influenced' Athrogate into pulling the lever by conjuring images of Delzoun ghosts in the dwarfs mind who pleaded with him to pull the lever. While in truth she wanted to reawaken Maegera. In 1452 DR, Dahlia Sin'felle tricked Jarlaxle Baenre and Athrogate into going to Gauntlgrym, all with hopes of restoring power to the great city. This allowed the Dwarves to use the Primordial to fire the forges, making it possible for them to create legendary weapons and armor, thus allowing the Delzoun clan to claim supremacy among Dwarf kind in the North. In return for helping the Elves build the Hosttower, the Elves provided Gauntlgrym with the Tendrils of Magic, which facilitated the usage of Water Elementals to trap Maegera. It was with the help of the gift bestowed upon the Dwarves by the Elves that made trapping Maegera possible. Gauntlgrym was the capital of Delzoun, and was the home of the famous forge that was powered by Maegera the Fire Primordial. Though every dwarf maintained that it existed simply because they knew it did. Gauntlgrym, legendary ancestral home of the Delzoun Dwarves, long thought myth by any and all non-dwarf kind. They claim rights to the plunder due to historical ties to the lost human kingdom of Illusk, which helped to build the original city of Gauntlgrym.
