Whereabouts of the Dwarves...

[jmugg]

Where were the Dwarves during the War of the Ring?????

[Ralenquil]

Fighting up near the Lonely Mountain where The Hobbit took place:)

Who were they fighting and where did you find that?

[Ralenquil]

Its in the appendices in the ROTK and they were fighting orcs and goblins under the control of Sauron
Sauron at all times held the military advantage in the War, due to his overwhelming forces; not only Orcs and Trolls, but Men of Harad and the East. His main immediate object was the overthrow of Gondor, his near neighbour and the strongest of his enemies. He had such forces at his command, though, that he was able to fight the war on many fronts, also attacking Dale, Erebor and the Wood-elves in the far north, and Lórien from his secondary stronghold at Dol Guldur.
