''The Saga of Gunnar starts by telling of a legend of fur and scale covered warriors who came down from the Mørkogis that couldn't be killed with normal weapons. These warriors had decimated the armies of a now long dead Mennesker king. The Mørkogis warriors were impervious to the blades, axes, and clubs of the Mennesker. They were unflinching even to the mighty blows of the greatest warriors the king had commanded. When all was thought lost, a miner came to the king's chamber to make a proposition. He tossed a pebble from hand to hand as he offered to defeat the Mørkogis army in exchange for wealth. At first, the king scoffed at the miner and waved him away. After two more staggering defeats and two more offers from the miner (each time demanding more), the king accepted. If he could defeat the Mørkogis Army then he would reward him with untold riches.''

''Confident, that the king was ready to accept surrender, the Mørkogis Army marched towards the city. However, in order to get to the city, the army had to pass the high cliffs of the stone quarry. It was there, the miner had laid in wait with hundreds of other miners who had gathered tons upon tons of rocks to the top of the cliffs. The Mørkogis Army never saw the face of the miner who defeated them as they were crushed under tons of rock. Gunnar's Pass, named after the brave miner, is rumored to the be resting place of a thousand Mørkogis soldiers. The Saga of Gunnar continues with many other tales of him outwitting formidable foes.''
