[QUOTE="Creamsteak, post: 3963141, member: 552"] After dealing with the dwarf's trading post, your group seeks out a slightly seedy connection from previous endeavors.

His own tongue was slit out years ago, and the replacement he ripped out of a demon and had grafted on serves its purpose instead.
