We have word from the High Fairy that we are to leave here tomorrow for our return to Nonin-gal-dith. Gilgorgon suggested we stop by the great hall on the way past the mountain, in order to be sure to catch Dunfallon on his way back to us. His was a sound idea, but I had a better one.
In order not to lose a day, I asked him to send a message to our pixie friend and have him meet us on the slope on the other side. Gilgorgon dispatched a dwarf to that end before the day’s close.
Then, he invited Rumble and me to take dinner with him. We conversed long into the night. We learned about the origin of the dwarves. And he was surprised to hear about the competing stories behind that of our people, the Fairies.
Rumble was gratified that the dwarf tended to agree more with his account.
