With his hammer and his pick, Moradin struck the primordial earth and formed mountains. With his hammer and the Soulforge, he fashioned the firstborn dwarves from bedrock, iron, and diamonds. With his hammer and his tenacity, he struck down each primordial that would think to destroy his creations. And so, the dwarves, humans, and other people of the world were inspired.
