In The winter months the incidents with the goblinoids were always rare. The Order of the Axe trained lightly so you spent most of your free time helping the stone masons in the area, it brought great memories of past times when you worked as a mason. One day after another light training, you were asked to face the high cleric of Tyr – Forag Stonebless ."Greetings Ironband" he hands you a cup of Ale, "Before we start the evening's feast, I must ask you for something" he takes a swig from his Ale and wipe his beard. "The clan elders with me among them and the Prince have heard some troubling news, our scouts are suspecting that someone entered to the whispering mines,  you know, those mines in the northern hills that suspected to be hunted, there is an ancient shrine of Moradin over there, before panic and anger spreads among the community they decided to send a group to investigate the mines, I volunteered you in the name of our order" he eyes you a few seconds and then continue"After the feast, you are to report in the great ruby hall before the elders, now let's go and crunch some Mountain goats"You start walking together ….Kragen Stormhammer (Krug) & Alisanos (Ranger Rick)It was cold outside, there was a snow storm outside, you (Kragen) just returned from a quick patrol with few friends, you accompanied a band of Gnome merchants down the snow covered road a few miles to the north west of Gorgamdur."Finally, The Baruch" someone shouted, you see the great Iron gate with the massive stone barricade that marks the entrance to the land, the humans call him "The blessed gate", many dwarves armies passed victorious through him.You (Alisanos) stood on the barricade, a dwarven band just returned from a patrol, you help your friends from "Bolts" unit to pull the massive chains and to open the blessed gate.The bolts – a small unit of dwarf's crossbowmen Your shifts have passed, now you can return to your homes and your doings, Krug – To sculpture the new dwarves statues on the old bridge in the royal fort, Alisanos – to appraise the jewels that were brought as a gift from the gnomes to the royal family."Alisanos, come here" shouts the captain of the royal guards, you depart from the other warriors that shouts you to come to "The Mug" tavern later, you see the captain and other dwarf, you recognize him, he is the sculpture and a member of The Bolts – those pathetics – "Krug, Alisanos, I choose you !" he declares, "You ask for what, I'll tell you" and he spits a piece of tobacco on the floor."One of the elders came to me with a special request, Bring me two of your soldiers for a royal task, I know you two wanted to prove your self, so I choose you two, you need to report in the evening in the great ruby hall for more instructions, any questions ?Thimur Urnuham (Skadrian)Another messy day in the Underground herbs and mushroom cave, You harvested the herbs, butchered some "Screamers" and collected some unique bugs, you wonder what type of potions your master wants to prepare with this ingredients."Bah, my son" he calls when he sees you, "I think I'm onto something, I hope Gubir (the other young apprentice) will come soon with the gems I ordered""Come, sit on the chair" he takes a sit in front of you and looks into your eyes with his old eyes "You know that I'm an elder right, and I know that you respect me for that, we, the spellcasters are very rare among our people, thus you shall be respected in the future too, when I was young I did tasks for the king, now my son, you have the chance to gain your respect, from the prince"He gets up and tap on your shoulder. "The prince requested the help of a spell caster, will you honor me and accept it?"He then tells you about the task and that you both need to be in the great ruby hall after dinner.Kaen Biturk (Jkason)You wave to the gnome band goodbye, "Another great deal" you think to your self while you see them march through the snow covered road with the dwarve's warrior band.You start walking to your house smiling. After an hour you reach to your house and enter "what that? A note with "Prince Gorash" sign on it" you pick up the note from the floor.Hmmm" you think to your self what's this?To Kaen BiturkPlease meet us in the great Ruby hallAfter sun dawn.Tarim emerald (the Gem's cutter guildmaster and one of the elders)On behalf of the prince and the eldersRogno stoneheart(Jaiaxe)Another day in the smelting house has passed. "Rogno Stoneheart?" you hear from the outside someone shouts, you see a warrior.Beside him you see one of the clan elders, the warrior signals you to come. "you must come with us, It's urgent"You close the door and accompany them, after some time you reach the royal halls. You take a sit and someone brings you Ale"I'm sorry to interrupt you, but we have a problem" says the Elder."We know that you have been in the whispering mines a year ago, you mumbled something about the talking stones that brought you there, do you remember something from there? Any passages? Something?"He pauses for a sec. and looks on your puzzled face"The mines closed 5 years ago and no one ventured into them but you, you had luck that one of our patrols found you near the entrance, they said you bleed from every wound, you were unconscious for two weeks, do you remember anything from that day that can help us?You say "NO" , The elder looks disappointed, "You know what, maybe you'll remember when you'll be there, The Prince and the elder's council need you, to venture into this mines again, maybe you'll be able to find your talking stones again" he smiles to you"just come to the great ruby hall in the evening, any questions?"OOC: mark speech in red, and thoughts with italic</blockquote>
