*Geddrin walks into the Surge after a Long day at the forge and Spots a Big Half Giant named Dimmy scratching his head while looking at a tattered and stained peice of paper held to the board with a broken arrow shaft.
"Wort ye dooin ther ladee?" Geddrin asks the Behometh.
"Nice mans say Dimmy shuld reed leta. But ummm Dimmy not reed okays."

" Och Lad come now folks will start ta talk! Dwarfs dun hug liokes Lad Och! Ye overgrown lump PUT MEH DOON! HAR!" .............
A note is pinned underneath the tattered one, written in fine handwriting but upon a soot and grease covered parchement is the following....

Geddrin Swifthammer, Hammer o Dorand and Dimmy Waterford, Half Giant Fighter o Vorax.
......Geddrin wipes a salty tear from his eye as the Gentle Half Giant Dimmy leaves the surge. Geddrin mumbles to himself, 'A novva fione lad, ifn ther only beh more lioke them twoo roun these parts ther be no bludy War!' A Half Orc looks over suspicously at the Dwarf in his unguarded moment.
