The event was so named because Bluto performed the grisly ritual in a cavern beneath his home where the Millstream Greyhawk Millstream enters Greyhawk City, causing the stream to run red with his victims blood. Bluto was brought to justice by the adventurers Robilar and Yrag , though some accounts say that the villain turned himself in. Nonetheless, Bluto escaped soon after with a band of renegade Rhennee bargemen. Reports placed Bluto a decade later at White Plume Mountain , presumably in the service of Keraptis . Bluto s reason for committing the crime has never been revealed, though a band of adventurers exploring his vacant home in 591 CY found documents hinting that Bluto was somehow involved with the Horned Society , and that he was seeking an artifact known as an Octych .

The battle took place on the banks of the Belly River within the present limits of the city of Lethbridge . A devastating outbreak of smallpox had reduced the strength of the Blackfoot, and a Cree war party had come south in late October, 1870 in order to take advantage of that weakness. An advance party of Crees had stumbled upon a Peigan camp and decided to attack instead of informing the main Cree body of their find. Soon word passed to other Blackfoot, Kainai Nation Blood and Peigan camps in the immediate area, and warriors were sent to join battle. After several hours of trading shots, a Blackfoot party gained the high ground and made the Cree positions untenable. The retreat became a rout, and up to 300 Cree warriors were killed trying to make their escape. Approximately a year after the battle, the Cree and Blackfoot made a formal peace. Treaty 7 Treaty No.7 , between the Blackfoot Confederacy and the Crown, was signed in 1877. In 1890, the town of Lethbridge was founded near the battle site.
