Buried?[edit source]

The account of the Battle of Azanulbizar says that the Dwarves don't bury their dead in the eart. How come Floi was an exception? Sage 22:32, 26 June 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Reading the account - and this is pure speculation on my part - Flói appears to be a specific killing. I would guess they didn't have time to make a proper stone cairn, so had to use earth instead. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 11:32, 30 June 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Maybe being buried near the Mirrormere was considered an honor even if you weren't buried in stone. Of course, there wasn't enough room to bury everyone there during the Battle of Azanulbizar. Amandacil (talk) 03:07, 30 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
