Having reached the heights overlooking Stone Valley, Captain Hess returns to his men and orders them to deploy where they can reach the dwarves if they reach about the center of the valley below. He gives them a short speech:
"Come on you lot, make it snappy. We shall rain down death upon them. In the name of Rabadan we shall slay them all. And then... (he grins an evil grin) and then we shall have some fun. We shall advance upon the dwarven city and rip open the pregnant women, we shall smash their infants against the rocks. All hail Rabadan! All hail Commander Amladris!"
