[QUOTE="Systole, post: 6128502, member: 93930"] The dwarves listen and watch appreciately, and even applaud wholeheartedly when the tale and the dance are done. A Venzan audience might have been more jaded, but out here in the mountains, it was entertainment without parallel. At the end, Arsenalt's eyes widen as you mention Darktail. He tries to speak but launches into a coughing fit. One of the other dwarves passes him a mug of ale and swallows a few gulps to calm his throat before he can speak. [COLOR=#daa520]"Not ... not Darktail. Dark [I]Talon[/I]. Heard them say it sometimes ... didn't know it was a name.
