They were beaten back by a broad coalition of forces, including Harpers and Emerald Grove druids, suffering significant losses in the process.

The remaining Dark Justiciars were finally defeated after an infernal bargain struck between Infernal Mason Morfred and Raphael Raphael resulted in Raphael ordering Yurgir Yurgir to decimate Grymforge.
