Hi, sages. Long time no see!

Came around to post a question. The description of the magical hammer Delzoun's Fist says:

This minor artifact, a magical "warhammer +5, dwarven thrower" was created by Delzoun, the legendary founder of the ancient dwarven Northkingdom that bore his name. He bore it until his sudden and horrible death (upon which he is rumored to have immediately risen as an undead thing).

Can anyone tell me if this story was further developed? Is the place of his death known?

"Goodness is not a natural state, but must be
fought for to be attained and maintained.
Lead by example.
Let your deeds speak your intentions.
Goodness radiated from the heart."

I dont know the answer, but i suspect the likes of Eric and George might be working on this along with the rest of the history of the North.

I have an unofficial write-up of it.

I'm not ready to post it yet, but send me a PM Barastir.

Obviously he died because someone switched his good, hardy dwarven ale with pansy, hoity-toity elven wine, and he couldn't tell the difference until someone pointed it out.

Any dwarf who can't immediately tell the difference between tasty dwarven rotgut and revolting elven flower juice is a disgrace to his beard who deserves an ugly death, anyhow.

No true dwarf would fail to recognise that fruity swill on sight and smell. The mere insinuation of failure to recognise taste is an insult to all dwarves everywhere.
