The Craftsman 286 Dwarves...

The dwarven empire was located in a bowl shaped mountain range so Daedalus' journey to the capital would take a while. Luckily along the way there are tens of cities or rest stops dug into the mountain itself so he wasn't too bored.

The first stop Daedalus came across was named by the dwarves living in the area and was known as Alloy Alley. Most of the dwarves in the area would buy metals from those heading towards the center as they pa.s.sed, this caused the area to be quite wealthy and was a trading hub.

As it was all underground the area had long been widened out, this left enormous pillars to keep an entire mountain from collapsing so there was near constant work to keep them in top shape. The pillars where also beautifully designed with images of dragons and many other intelligent races trying to come through but failing.

As Daedalus admired the artwork and the detailed story behind each part he couldn't help but notice that the designs where made in a way that reinforced the pillar. As he continued to admire the craftsmans.h.i.+p Daedalus didn't notice a dwarf coming up behind him until they said "Is that wyvern leather, my G.o.d, it is! Tell me how did you get it in such good condition. And it's new, only the Emperor would be able to make this, but he would be bragging about how well it went if that where the case."

The dwarf continued going on and on about the quality of the craftsmans.h.i.+p and how the emperor was the only one who could have made it. Daedalus had definitely put his full efforts into making these clothes so he could understand his thoughts to a degree, but Daedalus had made this himself and if he didn't say something the emperor would get the credit for something Daedalus did.

So Daedalus waved his hand in the dwarfs face and said "The emperor didn't make this, I did. I killed the wyvern myself actually so I would prefer you didn't get it mixed up."

The dwarf now seeing Daedalus from the front saw the insignia on his chest and said "I can see your elven royalty, just be happy the emperor gave you something so nice!"

Daedalus felt as if his abilities where being challenged so he said "What do you need me to prove it to you!?"

The dwarf immediately nodded and said "Of course if you could make something that nice you would have long since bragged about it to one person or another, not one craftsman would ever think of not making their best work known!"

By now a crowd had formed around the two and a few where already mumbling about how the emperor had given such an arrogant elf such nice armour but he was saying it was made by him. Daedalus at this point was rather furious and said "This wasn't even the best thing I made so why would I show it off, they're just clothes!"

The dwarves around him hushed immediately until the dwarf Daedalus had been verbally fighting with said "Just clothes, just clothes. Are you stupid these are clearly a high quality wyvern leather light armour made by the emperor himself for an arrogant elf like you!"
