Jacob's POV
Grimm left only two days later, having accepted the potential that the dwarves possessed to succeed. It was true that the dwarves could survive. Once he was sure that there was nothing I was doing for them, he accepted a collaboration of the trolls with the dwarves. Their skills in the forge sparked his interest and he had ideas that couldn't go unquenched. As a result, he asked for Sylvia to be taken to the troll's capital, ...
She wouldn't have accepted, but the man bribed her with better equipment and secrets to working the forge. As a result, she was to go there. Her mother, Evelyn, didn't want her to go on her own and put conditions that she was to escort her to the capital. With next to no resistance, the troll accepted and quickly moved to the next order of action and that was to get me to Gridlock mountain.
