[QUOTE="Carlo-One, post: 7977288, member: 7015827"] Following an invitation by the Prince to speak, Rahnee eloquently described the need for doughty warriors in their recently-won wilderness land of “Veranbrok”, purchased with the blood of two companions and torn from the hand of a bad ruler. Dalgan asked where the land might be found and stated that he would not object if any of his young warriors volunteered to travel there to help, although he could not promise other assistance given the challenges that faced Clan Ironhelm. He asked Koll to make a note of the location of the nearest village, Glees, and directions for any who would venture there. The Prince, clearly pleased with things, said that Koll had reminded him of the need for rest and ended the audience. Darrow, Rahnee and Aerikoth then made their way to the temple. Iskar greeted them and ushered them into a private chamber, in order to avoid more interruptions by well-wishing clan members. In response to a question from Rahnee about the Prince's health, Iskar explained that he had been up all night in council deliberations, so the priest had asked Koll to ensure that he get some rest as soon as possible. Iskar confessed that he was no closer to divining the nature of the Prince's problem, although he intended to turn his full energies towards it once again. Rahnee mentioned her surprise at the quick decisions to give Haelgrim to Darrow and to immediately reopen trade with the outside world. Although Iskar was initially reluctant to comment, he was put on the spot by an observant Aerikoth, who noted the priest's pensiveness. Iskar explained that clan politics still posed a danger, with the fragile state of the Prince. Although Iskar believed that Darrow truly merited the chance to bear Haelgrim, he also viewed it as a convenient way to ensure that its possessor would be away from clan halls and not made a part of any plot against the Prince. Iskar also pointedly observed that if the Prince died, Darrow might be considered as a possible successor. The prospect caused Darrow to sputter briefly before declaring that he might lead a charge into a wall of giants, but doubted that he had the mettle to lead the clan. Iskar cautioned that others might seek to manipulate Darrow, specifically mentioning Toran Goldfinder, although the priest had no proof of wrongdoing. He advised the adventurers to leave soon, to avoid any problems. In response to a question from Aerikoth, Iskar said he believed that there was nothing more that the adventurers could do, so Iskar would not attempt to contact them; however, if they discovered something in their travels, they could always return to the citadel. The three then took their leave of the priest and went back to the guest quarters, in order to see how Dinendal was faring with the chronicle of their Deep Delve expedition. Darrow pounded on the elf's door and Dinendal emerged, ink-stained, protesting that he had just finished his draft and was in the process of revising its wordage. Rahnee shared the latest news with him about Darrow's possession of Haelgrim and their imminent departure. After making a few last-minute edits, Dinendal went off to deliver his chronicle to the clan's keeping, while Darrow was occupied saying goodbye to his clanmates.

At the gates to the outside world, Clan Greeter Rumnaher provided an emotional farewell, telling Darrow and his companions that they had truly honored the clan with their actions. With a final exchange of the war-cry "For Ironhelm!" Rumnaher watched Darrow and the others ascend the tunnel to the surface. There, the dwarven defenders on duty saluted the party as they passed through the two massive gateworks and departed the valley into the cold of the Giant's Reach mountains. [/QUOTE]
