After he met with the empress, Michael returned to his castle. He summoned Gaya and Adelia to the meeting room. Michael told them about the meeting and how the empress wanted him to deal with Han Torum. Initially, Gaya seemed furious at the empress for using them as her pawn, but after hearing the deal between the dwarves and the Guardian Guild, she calmed down.
"First, we need to know more about Han Torum and Dalgarum," said Michael. Dalgarum was a dwarven kingdom where Han Torum was located. However, the dwarves were extremely cautious about foreigners, especially other race members. Visiting Dalgarum as a human would only get him extremely vulgar remarks and scorns.
