[QUOTE="tglassy, post: 7045909, member: 6855204"] Dariana is indeed the first one off the boat. As she hands the coin to the Dwarf, he takes it, his hands shaking with age, and slips it into a pouch. He gestures for her to stand next to him as he wait for the rest of the passengers. The lone Goliath, Jorrick, is next, a large grin on his face as he proudly walks down the ramp to the old dwarf. "The coin!" he says, triumphantly as he produces it from his pocket. He hands it to the dwarf, who doesn't even try to meet the tall Goliath's gaze. Jorrick takes his place next to Dariana, still grinning. He turns to her, "I'm hoping to become a great warrior, the likes of which the world has never seen!" The old dwarf cracks a smile at this, but does not say anything, nor does he turn to regard the Goliath. The Goliath looks down and sees something by the Dwarf's foot. It appears to be a tooth. "Hello, Master Dwarf, you have lost something." As the Goliath bends down to grab the object, the Dwarf's cane lashes out, faster than the eye can follow, smacking the Goliath in the mouth. The force of the blow causes Jorrick to jump, slip and land on his buttocks. Seated, he is almost as tall as Dariana is. The Goliath sits, shocked for a moment, before spitting on the ground, a small tooth landing to rest next to the one Jorrick had reached for. "Please stand and wait on the other passengers," the dwarf said, his voice sounding as if it was made by grinding the first two rocks ever created together. He was still smiling as he waited for the next student. [/QUOTE]
