Chandaea, Year of Severus, 15, I.R., the 34th day of Fall, Arenfall
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The dwarf stared at the glistening blade he stabbed into the ground. In their culture stabbing a blade in the ground was frowned upon. The dwarves believed that stabbing the blade on the ground disrespected the maker of that weapon.
The dwarf didn't care about that! After Lord Prestonheim gave him the blade, he felt something was off with its balance. The dagger had a heavier hilt compared to the blade, that indicated the exousia cannot properly spread all over the blade when activated.
He detested the dagger but chose to accept it from Lord Prestonheim just so he can entertain himself with how ridiculously flawed the structure of the dagger was. He knew for certain it was made by a dwarf with lesser experience as he slowly observed the embroideries and sculpting of the hilt.
