The first few trolls were just scouts and easily killed, but Scon and Herai knew that more would come. They wanted to insure the trolls wouldn't get near them in full force. There was a pass that was the only way to the lodge so Scon, Herai, Tanar and Warpka went to cause an avalanche to block the pass. A party of three trolls attacked the four. His parent caused the avalanche and killed both themselves and the trolls, leaving Warpka and Tanar alone.

      Warpka decided this was his chance and shot Tanar in the shoulder. Warpka had always dreamed of being leader of the Lodge and now was his time to strike. The pair dueled, but with Tanar?s injured shoulder he was beaten back. His longsword was slapped away easily and Tanar thought his death was at hand. Warpka laughed as he told Tanar how he would warm Huki's furs for Tanar. A laugh came from behind Warpka and the elf screamed out as a bolt suddenly stuck out from his leg. It was Huki. She cocked back her crossbow and loaded another bolt. Warpka was forced to withdraw and Huki helped Tanar back to the Lodge to get bandaged up.

      It was some years later when Tanar was out hunting by himself that Warpka had his revenge. Warpka had gone to the trolls for revenge and lead them to the Lodge. The Lodge was butchered. When Tanar came back he found everyone, included Warpka dead and the Lodge on fire. The trolls had betrayed Warpka and killed him first. Tanar knew he couldn't defeat the trolls alone and headed south to greener pastures.
