[Important Lore]Tha' Discovery Av' Dwarves In Asulon

[Samson Option 9652]

Kiror Yemerdorn passes Hogarth Irongut on his way through the Valley of Khaz, making small conversation as he stops temporarily from his rushing monotony of footsteps against stone. Upon trading last words, he withdraws a small journal hidden under his worn leather jerkin and makes his way through the modest forest nestled between the mountains in the Valley of Khaz and up a roughshod path to Khaz'Tiwaaz. He jostles along the tunnels and swiftly hops down the stairs and climbs down the ladders to his newest excavation. Kiror slides on his knees, bruising them as rocks cut through the tattered cloth; but Kiror paid little attention as he begins to shuffle through items scattered across the newly revealed campsite.

Kiror yelps with excitement as he finds the Sent-ya'ikte-Jegaaz and begins to scan through the runic letters, time from time spelling out softly the phonetics as he glazes over; journal open and pinned to the earth with his other hand. His fingers work over the pages and turns them, fully intent on possibly matching words. A smile spreads slowly across his face, undeniably the sign that he succeeded in finding what he was matching, he chuckles as he falls back against a leather pack standing tall; perhaps held up by the pickaxe, shovel, and tabar axe within. He utters the words 'Dwarves' and 'Dervas' as his eyes widen and the smirk remains across his face.

He forces himself forward from his resting position and begins to take a long scroll of parchment and with a shard of graphite; he rests the graphite between his thumb and forefinger and begins to write...

"Meh' Fella' Dwarves, I hav' foun' an extraordinary discovereh' ta' answer one av' tha' most paradoxical questions that many 'av wundered! Since tha' few munths' that ol' King Broski made meh' Archivist fer' tha' Dwarves an' found tha' ruins within Khaz'Tiwaaz, I alon' wit' many otha' Dwarves wundered, 'ow is it tha' there was ol' Dwarven ruins 'ere?! Tha' Dwarves were nat' suspected ta' bein' 'ere, indeed tha' lot of many Dwarves came from ol' Aegis aye? Tha' discovery dun' explains it now! Read tha' followin' passages from two sources that I found ta' be similar!"

From the Sent-ya'ikte-Jegaaz:

"It would seem we Dwarves made many travels since the first landing, having used the wood scavenged from the galleys brought to shore in the Frigid South. It was only but a few months since we decided in counsel with tha' 'ansataaz humans that we would agree to move forth from the fertile coasts. The Warbands of the Dwarves have moved in collaboration as we've scouted valleys and the mountains here, such a glorious endeavor this has been and we will ensure the survival of our kind. We intended to move East, but nary have we moved East before finding a landscape void of the dirt and even stone; having encountered pure ice. With the inhospitable environment voiding any wishes to continue our intended path, we moved North and this decision has brought to us grand findings; Urguan would be proud!"

From the Journal of Kiror Yemerdorn, citing what he found investigating the 'Frigid South'; Hanseti

"Tha' 'anseti beh' av' suitable description, not knowin' much av' tha' ol' Human Lands; I suspected ol' Renatus ta' beh' tha' right place ta' lewk' fer' this place called in tha' Sent-ya'ikte-Jegaaz tha' 'Frigid South'. Renatus was hilly, but full av' green ferm'land, nuttin' av' any cold climate, so I headed furtheh' South and it terns' out tha' Realm of Hanseti in'abits tha' right kind av' land. Snoopin' 'round tha' capital and takin' ta' tha' tavurns' fer' drinks and werds' wit' ta' educated fulk' av' 'anseti. From what I dun' found out, this seems suspiciously parallel ta' tha' tome I found in Khaz'Tiwaaz!

- Reaching agreements for the numerous families to begin splitting, in hopes to seek newer lands that would beckon them with it's bounty to sustain; husbands and widows begun stepping forth from the village and sought to travel the continent. Unfortunately, the people who had walked forth were not to return with glad tidings in the number that had originally left. Out of the approximately eight families that had left, only three were to remain alive. One of them would form the Subudai, a nomadic group of clans that had served initially to preserve the Hanseti as mobile defenders in the land of Trinskiril and defenders of the second family that would become the Dervas; a family that would would become useful in the ways of engineering and masonry. The third family would become the inheritors of half the population of the original Hanseti tribe and kept the name. -

Dwarves, this beh' a grand discovery that 'as 'ardly any rivals av' tha' magnitude of implications! Notice 'ow tha' Hanseti mistakenly called us 'Dervas', this seems ta' be tha' way ta' pronounce Dwarves in their dialect! This answers 'ow we've been findin' tha' ruins, tomes, and otha' monuments and artifacts 'ere in Asulon!

[it has been my pleasure to attempt and succeed in such an intermingling of Lores. After reading repeatedly the Splendid Creation Lore and Ancient Lore of Lord of the Craft, I have successfully concocted an explanation devoid of 'magical/fantasy deux-ex-machina-like mechanics to explain it', besides the fact that the Wandering Wizard does what he can do :lol:. These Dwarves however are of Asulon and does not overreach into the Aegisian Dwarves.
