3359 The Right to Rule

When Ves finally completed his crown design, he had to present it to his client before he could proceed with fabricating it. After all, it would be too late for him to cry if Rion didn't like the end product!

"Oi! Rion!" He called to the armored dwarf looking down from above. "I finished my design for your crown! Come take a look. If there are any elements that you don't like, tell me and I'll try and fix it. That said, this is the best crown that I have envisioned for a dwarven sovereign such as yourself. Any suggestions you make will likely dilute its concept."

Someone as knowledgeable as Rion was likely aware of this dynamic, but it didn't hurt to remind him of how troublesome it was to implement significant changes to an existing design.

Rion went through a lot of trouble to commission a crown from 'Vulcan' instead of anyone else. It did not make sense to second-guess or challenge the judgement of the contractor.
