Was it Dracothraxus' attack?[edit]

I agree that it is heavily implied in the conversations with the golems. To quote;

"Adjhar and I were... keeping watch... when the wall fell on Adjhar. And the loud noise came..." - Bollux
"I am one of the guardians of the Shrines of the Principles. That was exactly what Bollux and I were doing when the wall fell and crushed me." - Adjhar
"I do not remember the incident clearly. However, I will relate what I can recall. Bollux and I were standing guard in the Shrine Room of the Principles when we detected an intrusion into the the castle. I remember nothing more than being aware of great heat, and then part of the wall crumbling atop me, crushing my legs. I suppose Bollux was more forunate. Was it he who carried me here?" - Adjhar

The last with the intrusion and the heat really makes me believe it is Dracothraxus. However in the FoV manual Erethian writes right after talking about Dracothaxus' attack;

"However, I digress. By far the most intriguing creatures I have come across are the stone golems. I had heard nothing more than mere rumors prior to my arrival here, but seeing the mobile masses of rock have convinced me of their existence. Astelleron was quite a master, indeed, for his workmanship is beautiful. I know nothing of their sentience, for they have never spoken to me. To be honest, I am not even sure they are aware of my intrusion, for I have yet to venture near one of the Shrines. I hope soon to journey back to what I have assumed is Astelleron’s hovel and learn more about their creation, but that will come after my other research. Regardless of how the golems were constructed, I am confident more than an ordinary sword would be necessary to stop them." - Erethian

Which implies that there are multiple functional golems at the time of the writing and after Dracothraxus' attack. But maybe he just hadn't noticed one had broken since he never ventured near... I'm really torn on it so I thought I'd bring it to other's attention. -- Fenyx4 04:17, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

I've always interpreted it as being Dracothraxus' attack. Dungy 08:32, April 28, 2010 (UTC)
