Have you ever run an adventure in which the PCs had no choice but to fight allies? If you have, please share it. I would like to hear about it.

I just came up with an adventure idea where the PCs can stop a dwarven king's assassination, but the only way to do so is to battle through the dwarves to get to the king. So whatever happens, it will be bad either way. I thought it would be cool to start the campaign with a dwarven city being completely off limits to non-dwarves. I am trying to get good ideas for the dwarves to do this though. Also, it could be a problem if the party is all dwarves or maybe even if there is one dwarf in it. I'm sure I can get around that though. Please throw in your suggestions and thoughts.
