The conversation with the Elf was becoming tedious, but then what else should be expected. Kyonos was not prone to having much conversation with anyone, not even another Dwarf, much less with an Elf. That was one of the annoying characteristics about Elves. They not only talk too much but the things that they talk about do not make much sense. Now this Elf thought that he should have been able to change the way that Kyonos thinks. At least now he seems to know better.
"You are right, it would be easier to persuade a rock not to sink than to persuade me to abandon what I know to be right. Dwarves do not need luck to succeed. We succeed because because we work hard to do what is right.
Not being able to let Drogean's last comment to go unanswered, Kyonos responded, "What kind of Elf would come to a Dwarven Forge to begin with? Either one who knows where to buy the best or one who does not know his proper place in a Dwarven community."
As the Elf ducked through the doorway, the Dwarf got back to work.
