== Synopsis ==
=== Kraftwerk and Paper Scraps ===
Having dealt with the Meanest Dwarf and set up the downfall of Dmitri with a strongly worded letter to Thane Kragdin, we set about working on our own various projects over the next couple of weeks. Snorri made a pistol; Brandr made chest plates; Aleksi found he had a band of kislevi religious nuts in a log hut somewhere in Deadgate; the Professor read his books or something; and Rel had been in contact with a dwarf lady called Frida Kettrisdotr. She had been in contact with Sverik Thunrimsson, a member of the Skorrun Clan who was visiting Skalf's Hold to gauge the supply of iron, and he had scrap of parchment with Eltharin writing on it. It was a note from a Skorrun ancestor and it mentioned something about a shield that would be held in a vault somewhere in the Skorrun Clan hold deep within the Ruins. Rel had also been reading other scraps of paper that had been found in the meanest dwarf's stash. One talked of a staff between life and death, taken in the war of wrath. The scrap of paper was probably from a guidebook to the items kept in the Hall of Kings on the 8th level of the Ruins. We though that this might be the staff that Calisri was after called the Rod of Isha.
=== Inn Way Too Deep ===
While working on our projects, we got an invitation from Reinhardt, inviting us for a drink at the Inn Way Too Deep. We went over in the early evening and we got some stares on the streets. We arrived at the inn and Reinhardt was there with Begehren and Vikram and his son, Starik, who was putting up a big board on the wall. We got drinks and went to chat to the boys. Vikram said the board his son was putting up was a bounty board, naming threats in the Ruins for adventures to take on. There were Blacktooth Orks on level 5 near the Skorrun clan hold; Skaven clans Vechiare and Skreet; Undead and their attendant necromancer on levels 7 and 8. We had our work cut out. These threats had to be dealt with if we were to move further into the Ruins in any large numbers. Vikram told us the way down to the 5th level was through some dwarf suburbs (dwelths) to the west. He also said there were many river trolls on the 5th floor. After speaking to Vikram, we chatted with Reinhardt who told us Begehren wanted to talk to us. Begehren told us that he was interested in any odds and ends we find down in the Ruins.
=== The Small Council ===
We then decided it was time to discuss the shame that we had seen last time we were in the Ruins: the Chaos Dwarf. We went first to Morgrim Blazehand whose engineer underling had been killed by the chaos dwarf. He told us to go to speak to the High Priest, Balakina. We toddled over to the temple where we told Balakina of our horrific find. Her eyes widened and her usually stoic face fell into a pained grimace. She said that we needed to tell the King immediately, so we were swept over to the Keep where the Small Council were called. The council was dismayed at our news - it was the furthest west one had been seen in a long time - they had to be looking for something. It was then that Brandr told the King about the real reason we had come to Karak Azgal - the Anvil of Doom. Snorri and Brandr had to come to seek it out and reclaim it for the glory of clan Forgekeeper. The king was astonished.
