One of the messenger-ravens bore Glóin's warning to Skarháld, and now the dwarves wish to exercise their skills in preparation for the battles to come.

'One of my ravens escaped the arrows of the Orc archers, and even now Telgja is winging to Skarháld to warn Durin about the new Lord of Gundabad. I do not think it will dissuade him. You heard the fire in his voice when he spoke before the Anvil of Winterstith! No Orc chieftain, not even the brother of Mazog, will keep Durin from seeking to reclaim Gundabad. But our message will still serve an important purpose, for he will not march blindly beneath the Three Peaks.
'There is something else about which we should speak, Player. I was talking to Imák and Venko, and they are not yet ready to go their separate ways. They have decided to see what waits in Gundabad, and because of that they want to hone their skills. It seems your appraisals of them were not quite to their liking, and now they desire further training! To speak honestly, I too could use a bit of exercise.
'Our companions counselled we travel to the gorge of Sundergrót to hone our skills. Will you join us? The assault on Gundabad will sorely test us, and each of us had best be prepared for the trials ahead!'0/1

'Do you smell that? Ah, the goblins have attempted to reinforce the gorge since they were last opposed in this land, Player. They cannot evade my nose, no matter how they try to cover their foul scent!'
'I feel more accomplished already! This sojourn to Sundergrót has proven fruitful already!'0/1

'Very good, my friend, very good! If the goblins of Gundabad put up as little fight as those of Sundergrót, the Zhélruka will have the home that was promised to them before the week is out! And my sword-arm has grown even stronger with the practice!'
'Gorgar the Ruthless is less than nothing to me, and soon he will be just a memory. If Prince Ingór commanded me to face him in a duel of swords, I would do so, and gladly! I would do so even if it was to be a contest of axes, should my prince command it.'0/1

'Ah! It feels good to fight again! I may be old, but I can still go axe-to-skull with the common goblin of the mountains, and three of his friends!'
Glóin's brow furrows with thought.
'Do goblins have friends? Better to say allies, perhaps, for I have seen little proof of friendship among Azog's kind or his descendants. Then again, my axe does the talking for me, and he is a sharp conversationalist: swift and pointed with every argument!'

'Oh, that was a good one! I will have to remember that, and tell Gimli when next I see him! But listen to me, Player. Now that we have gotten some exercise, I think there is something we should do while we are here at Sundergrót.'0/1
