In a closed off room in Morgy’s warehouse, the light from a few burnished lanterns illuminated the scene. Baneck gripped the handle of Tungstil, eager to unsheathe the blade. “I still can’t believe I’m letting you do this,” Honee said with flat effect, as she stood beside a long table. “I can’t believe you’d do…
Make Your Enemy Sweat, But Don’t Underestimate Them
Kamep the spear-sharpener stood at the table where the heads were piled. Sye-nitch nearly pitied the low-ranking tribe-mate, as he told again of how a gang from the Blister-foot tribe had brought them into the Druntuss section of the undercity, staying only long enough to dump them in front of him, toss him the victims’…
The Best Trap Makes For the Sweetest Vengeance
Thanks to the dark-vision granted by her headband, Fawnlum saw the five north-side tri-cleorps moving in, on the pair of decoys sitting by the fire.

People Make the Victory
Crassifax Bellhold, Hammermound dwarf smith working in East Osterly, smiled up at Fawnlum through his densely whiskered face, as she beheld the product of his labors. After Sienna and Dreighton had delivered Banacheck’s note, he had asked few questions, but went right to work. In the time it took the other humans and dwarves to…
The Bud of an Idea Leads to a Plan
The industrious sounds rang out from two of Morgy’s forges. Baneck worked in the one, and Granholm and Torsar toiled next door. Baneck took the warning – a pebble tossed by Honee – as a sign, and quickly poured the molten iron onto the sparkling scale sitting in the stone basin. No sooner had he…
