Thotmudo's Promise, Harvest, and Auction (2)

The lord to whom he pledged his allegiance was the most astonishing and magnificent presence he had ever encountered in his life. Such power and dignity crowned him as the Lord of Glory.

In his heart, he felt even more fortunate about his resolute decision to pledge loyalty.

He displayed deep respect and asked, "My Lord, what brings you to summon me?"

"Raymond, when you were with the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce in the past, you frequently traveled between the Western Continent and other lands. Do you know where most of the dwarves in the Western Continent reside?"

"Dwarves?" Raymond recalled the disheveled dwarf the Lord had brought back today and pondered. "Most dwarves now live within the Kels Mountain Range in the Western Continent."

"Do you have means of contacting them?"

"Dwarves are highly reclusive, except for essential supplies and trade; they are self-sufficient. They hardly leave the Kels Mountain Range."
