[h1]Dragons Cradle[/h1] The dwarf and his companions walked on in silence despite their guests chatter. It wasn't that they craved the silence, it was that the mountains weren't nearly as safe as they used to be. Eventually they reached their camp were the captain of their little party waved for the guards to open the gate. He lead the girl and her golem to a small quarry in the side of the volcano. At this point the girl had asked, "What kinds of questions is the Obsidian Smith going to have?" To which he responded, "Why don't you ask him yourself?" Amid the sea of black glass, was a grey haired old dwarf working by the light and heat of a puddle of lava that had risen to the surface. He was intent on his work, shaping the molten glass into moulds for armor and battle axes. Not looking away from his work he spoke up, [color=9e0b0f]"Marvelous stone Obsidian. I've spent years mastering and learning its mysteries. So very sharp, yet brittle that is if you don't know how to temper it. Most marvelous of all is it's a great conduit of magic. A midnight warrior with his full suit is neigh immune to some of the nastiest of spells. Which leads me wondering young miss, Who in the name of Krallesh made a devil such as that? I didn't, I'm probably the only dwarf that could. I'd guess Scazzven, and Roric here put an axe in your head to be safe, but the conqueror hates elves, so your probably not one of his. So little miss got a story for me?"[/color] [@Mr Rage] [h2]Library of Secrets (Coalition of the Shore Folk)[/h2] [color=00a651]"Pardon me miss."[/color] Spoke a soft high pitched voice. It was a Yelb, holding out a book and two rolled up maps. The creature was scarcely 4 foot, the Yelb are often described as turtles who lost their shells and grew longer arms and legs. They were also renowned half-wits and skilled merchants. [color=00a651]"A man in a funny cloak bought these from me. Told me to bring them to a brown hair girl with a book. Last person I tried giving this to was angry said he was a boy. I don't think your a boy, so these are probably for you. I'm supposed to wait till you start reading then run away mysteriously. I don't know how to do that quietly though."[/color] he waited patiently. The book seemed to be a spell book, with a blazing eye on the cover. There appeared to be loose piece of parchment sticking out of the cover. [@DarkwolfX37]
