Proving Worth
Dwarves are not the ones who hide in their mountains of stone and forget about the happenings of Middle-earth… The Elf makes me a bit edgy and I loathe him for coming, but it’s one more chance to show, who is the better race.
This Quest is a calling, something that can reassert that my people are important, ones who can still make a difference and help all folks of Middle-earth. The last chance to prove the worth of my kind lies in this Quest and may I not leave the Ring-bearer until I see that his Quest be completed.
