The Woodland Enclave

Tulin listened to his brother-in-arms, the King of the Dwarves of Withered Heath. His own warlike persona displeased the decision of his ally; why run away from the orcs? No, Tulin wanted a taste of danger.

"You do as you wish, but rather than running away, why not move and take more land from these orcs? You remember one time when the orcs claimed to take Dorwinion 'without any reason to attack'? Heh! The dwarves of the Lonely Mountain and of Iron Hills miss the wines of Dorwinion!

Since the orcs took claim of that land, its fertility plummeted and the vineyards got burned. Ohh I would punish those orcs until the edge of the world! You can retreat your troops but we march to Eastern Rhovanion or Dorwinion; The orcs can not catch us there, even if they are en route to fight for this land. And with any luck, we'll in striking distance of their capitol!"

The Woodland Enclave is not retreating; they plan to attack either Eastern Rhovanion or Dorwinion.
