The world was young, the mountains green, No stain yet on the Moon was seen, No words were laid on stream or stone When Durin woke and walked alone. It was also believed that Durin would be reincarnated a total of six times, each time as a descendant of an older Durin. Durin was called the Deathless because he lived far longer than any other known dwarf. Durin founded the line of Dwarves called Durin's Folk. Durin and his heirs were revered by all Dwarves, and not just those of his own line. According to the Dwarves, Durin awoke at Mount Gundabad in the north of the Misty Mountains, which remained a sacred place to them ever after. Durin was set to sleep alone beneath Mount Gundabad in Middle-earth until the Elves awoke. King Durin I, known also as Durin the Deathless, of Khazad-dûm was the oldest of the Seven Fathers of the Dwarves, first created by Aulë the Vala.
