The Chamber of the Barons

The group went into the Chamber of the Barons.


There were seven old dwarves, sitting in a line, on stone thrones.


The one on the far left was the biggest, with a body looking to be comprised entirely of muscle, and his face looked like the face of a man who would attack you if you made the slightest wrong move.


The dwarf second to the left was adorned in a fine silk tunic, silk pants, wore a gold crown, a silver necklace, and a bronze ring.


The dwarf third to the left was the oldest dwarf in the room, and was sound asleep.


The dwarf in the middle was the tallest dwarf, with the tallest chair, the longest beard, and the hardest skin of all the barons, he appeared to be the head baron.


The dwarf furthest to the right was surround by dwarven women, and had a flask of wine in his left hand.


The dwarf second to the right was the shortest dwarf, with the smallest chair, no beard, and the softest skin of all the barons, he looked at the dwarves to either side of him, and looked sad.


The dwarf third to the right was the fattest dwarf, and had a plate of meat on his lap, and a jug of beer in his hand.


The middle dwarf spoke. "Wha', pray 'ill, da ya wan'? Spiak queckly, and spiak frankly, foor wi da noot 'aki kendly 'a noonsinsi."


Jue replied. "Of course, sirs, but you will, of course, exchange greetings before continuing to business, after all, it is custom."


The dwarf to the far left stood up, with an angry look on his face, but the middle dwarf gestured for him to sit down. He then spoke again.


"Ah, E suppoosi 'ha' yar regh', soo li's gi' e' dooni. Yar namis?"


Jue spoke. "My name is Jue, the girl is Gem, and the man is Plain-Walker. Your names?"


The angry dwarf stood. "Ira."


The dwarf beside him stood. "Crid."


The old dwarf was still asleep, so the middle dwarf stood. "'Hi slipir es Blo, and E'm Uredi."


The dwarf with food stood. "Claoony."


The short dwarf stood. "Iny."


The dwarf with the women stood. "Lub."


They all sat back down, and Uredi spoke.


"Noow, s'a'i yar buseniss."


Jue spoke "We require lodging, we will be heading up the mountain, and we need rest."


Uredi spoke. "And why shad wi gran' ya loodgeng?"


"I would never have thought that such a gracious host would need a reason to have guests. After all, the hospitality of the Barons is a thing of legend."


This effected Uredi in a way that would not affect many, and so he agreed to let them stay the night.

That night, the group planned out their attack on the Ogurr village. Plain-Walker and Jue would strike from the main gate, and Gem would sneak in and take the rod while the Ogurrs fought at the gates.


They had dinner, and went to bed.
