Arriving in Niflheim (Part 1)

After what was, to say the least, an exhausting trek across long, misty plains, Kaizen and the Descragon party suddenly found themselves in the middle of a village of ice dwarves.

Ice dwarves were common creatures of Niflheim, according to Kaizen's research. Unlike their Midgard counterparts, ice dwarves were even larger than humans and had blue skin like thick blocks of ice, but they still spoke of a passion for blacksmithing.

Kaizen, curious about the new world and inspired to get answers about where they were, dressed a man to hide his human face and approached an ice dwarf who appeared to be resting on the outside of a forge.

Amidst the clatter of coordinated hammers hitting thick iron bars inside the hut next to them, Kaizen introduced himself as a traveler, making it clear that he did not want to reveal too much about himself, and asked about the region.

The ice dwarf in question did not seem very enthusiastic for a few moments, but soon gave in.
