The Big Question

Turning to Bayern, Vogir whispers, ‘Why is the ground shaking and why is that entrance so big?’
Putting his hand on the Dwarf’s shoulder to prevent him going further toward the massive opening, Vogir leans down again.
‘I realise Dwarven architecture is often overblown, but that’s ridiculous. An ancient Dragon could easily wander in and out of there without even furling its wings!’
Realising that he might offend the healer, Vogir presses on anyway.
‘This looks more like it was made by the hands of giants. At least originally. ‘
And then just to annoy the Dwarf, Vogir pushes on further.
‘And is it possible that Dwarven over mining has undermined this entire region?
With a smirk, Vogir strides off before Bayern can make a gruff retort.

  1. Niema turns to the clearly impressed dwarf "I hope I didn't promise you too much when I said it's breathtaking? Your race clearly is the master of stonemasonry!"

    The dwarf only stares into the mine entrance, with a far-away look in his unblinking eyes.

    Standing next to his friend, Vogir continues, "This looks more like it was made by the hands of giants - at least originally."
    Without taking his eyes off the entrance, Bayern responds, "Because this is not just another dwarf mine, my friend; it was originally a temple. An ancient one, if the stories that I've heard are true. I hope that it has not been defiled like the one in the old keep."

    The dwarf looks back at the path in front of them. As he starts to follow Vogir, he adds darkly, "But considering our luck, it probably has been..."
