Very good - better than I thought possible. It still involves some fabrication, but it appears now to be a very good option.
I'm still not sure whether we want the singular or plural for the Balrog(s) in this section. Since Rog is no longer killing one, one reason for the change to singular is gone. But if we revert to the plural here we must also do so in FG-B-02.
