K is for Khazad-dûm. It's situated in the central regions of the Misty Mountains and was founded by Durin. After the dwarves had left it it was called Moria. The attempt of Balin to reclaim it failed and later, the fellowship crossed it and lost Gandalf who fought a Balrog.

I'll stick with S, and I thought it was supposed to be a dwarven themed alphabet this time around?

S is for Sack of Erebor. III 2770 - Smaug the Dragon descends on Erebor. Dale Destroyed. Thror escape with Thrain II and Thorin II.
