Chapter 5

After leaving the Inn, I began my new quest. I searched for days what I
herd of to be the round about Dwarven Town of Mortorn. For it is
where I thought to search for the Thane, the mountain where dwarf
heritage reigns supreme. I was on my way up the mount and got turned
about within the darkness of the night, and stumbled through a hole in
the rocks on the way to the city itself. Once inside I saw two enormous
statues, which seemed alive, as they breathed and snuffed. Further along
into the cavern I spotted another statue, it was of the great Dwarf
himself, Thror had seemingly been carved into stone, with incredible
craftsmanship. Only another short step forward and I found a great
Dwarf, holding a Forgehammer in one hand, I was sure that was whom I
sought, though when I got closer the man introduced himself as Drugnir
and asked what I wanted within this place. I told him that I was looking
to find the Forge of Thror, and he knelt down before a huge anvil in the
middle of the cavern. I looked around and found some markings on the
anvil, some in many languages that I could not read myself. Though one
word kept appearing over and over it was HammerSong, and a little
closer look about there were precepts engraved into the anvil, first the
precept of the Hammer and that of the Anvil. After reading them closely
I felt myself drawn to the precept of the Hammer, and have since been
listening to the singing of the hammers further in the cavern, and praying
to Lord Thror to help me to learn my own hammersong. When leaving
with newly found knowledge and understanding I resumed my training,
and while training flourintine I was called by the Captain of the village.
The bloody head was taken and I was going to help them recover it. I
took my time waiting for the opportune moment, and finished my
flourintine training at the harpies. I worked the Sentinel down and
captain Aidamo and I finished it. We spoke for quiet some time, I told
him of my past, and the events that bought me around to seeking the
village. Learning more and more as we discussed different facets of the
village philosophy, I finally gained his recommendation and left the
Captain and massive giant, feeling rather good about myself. Resuming
my training for several days, I again was approached by another villager
this time the Drillmaster of the village, after speaking of many the same
things that the Captain and I did, and learning a new path over the
mountains around behind the city of Hamsah we concluded our
interview, again I left feeling rather confidant having defeated an
assassin to help prove my fighting abilities a short time earlier. Several
more days passed I again resumed my training and had just reached the
twenty fifth title of the guild of warriors when my chance arose.
Commander Findlebisk awoke from his hut, seizing my chance I spoke
to the wise gnome. We began conversing before the Massive giant and
discussed a great deal of the village past, from the Seven day Inquisition,
to which villagers accompanied Lord BoltThrower into the mountains
and what he was in search of. We briefly talked over strategy and a brief
test of my fighting abilities and he asked me to kneel before him. The
moment had come, this was my chance, and I was to become a Student of
War. An elder Duergar showed me around the small village, I met
