Saving people, in Durin's view, was just a minor incident.

He praised Durin's skills, expressing that he had never thought a Grassland Elf divine craftsman would have such a method of saving lives.
"I'm beginning to understand the king's and queen's praise of you, as well as their reason for entrusting Princess Reed to you," the old man said, shaking hands with Durin. "Please be sure to visit the Winnem family when you have some free time, and let me, a native of Paris, properly play the host."
"Thank you for the invitation, I will certainly make time in the near future."
After saying goodbye to the minister, Durin looked toward Reed.
"What do you think about Kakanif and Una, Reed?" Durin asked with a smile.
