Chief had two tables set, one smaller where he could sit with Calvin and Kab, and a longer one for Calvin's yaks, along with a few dwarrows Chief trusted.
|
||||||
|
And Jod, who Chief didn't trust with diplomacy.
|
||||||
|
His chefs had managed to accommodate their odd guests, with some well-preserved silage they had found stored in a larder, supplemented by some fresh clover, thin shavings of a well-mineraled salt crystal (which Chief felt a pang of regret sharing) and some raw sugar beets (which Chief felt a pang of regret leaving raw, rather than in a delicious soup).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Calvin and his yaks entered in, led by Kab.
|
||||||
|
The President looked wore formal coat, and Chief wished he had a better outfit than his nice jacket and clean boots.
|
||||||
|
Instead of the Helm, Calvin wore a simple circlet, made of a dark wood inlaid with a delicate gold pattern.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
―Welcome, dear guests. Please, President Calvin, join me here.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Calvin and one of the other yaks came to join Chief, along with Kab.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
―Chief, this is Vaughan, one of my most trusted advisors.
|
||||||
|
I thank you again for your hospitality.
|
||||||
|
Kab has been very helpful.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
―No problem, Your Presidentness.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
―Please, just call me Calvin.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
―Of course, that's no problem.
|
||||||
|
We don't usually find ourselves hosting foreign leaders here.
|
||||||
|
We seldom see other Border Dwarrows, either.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Calvin nodded, and began to slowly eat.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
―Chief, I'm here because the Meadowlark is under threat.
|
||||||
|
I couldn't tell you why, but I think that Mountberg might be able to help us.
|
||||||
|
Unfortunately, we ran into a problem at the Sea-Gate.
|
||||||
|
As we sighted the entrance, we saw a Hawk approach overhead, and the sight may have spooked the guards at the gate.
|
||||||
|
It was raised before we could come close, and our shouts were either unheard or ignored.
|

The yak named Vaughan
