[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 8274507, member: 7006"] Hawthorne watches as the dwarven Master Reader takes his time trying to smooth and clean the book that he had found, admiring his technique and desire to keep things tidy. When the high elf, Ethian is his name, makes the call to journeying out to find this village of Maerin, Hawthorne nods in agreement. [B][COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)]"That was exactly my thought as well, Mister Ethian. We of the Black Dragon Gate are constantly trying to find and recover old mines across the Sword Coast... both for the historical value, as well as... well, I guess let me be blunt... economical value as well."[/COLOR][/B] He tilts his head and shrugs his shoulders in a sort of [COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)]"It is what it is"[/COLOR] sort of response to his own comment. [B][COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)]"We've actually done extensive work trying to recover the remnants of an iron mine north of here in the Cloak Wood. Was flooded over a hundred years ago by... get this... a spawn of the dead god Bhaal. Can you believe that? Who knew the God of Murder hated mining so much that he'd send his kids to go around destroying them.
