''The Dwarf took to this library like a '''[[Dartswimmer]]''' to water; every day a new book, which he would bring home and voraciously read. Books on geography, childrens books for learning and maps were his keenest focus.''
 
''Eventually, over many months, of which his money was still good, the Dwarf came to know the language of the town, which we now know as Middle Dwarven. He became a regular sight amongst the cobbled streets, always a courteous greeting to those he passed and a common sight for the merchants and traders with whom he struck up jovial conversations.''
 
''Many tales emerged over the years of how the Dwarf managed to accumulate his money, despite not seemingly having a job for much of it. Some say that he paid visits to the local metallurgists, selling them secret alloys of strange use. Others swear he was a regular at the '''[[Apothecary|Apothecaries]]''', to which he sold them botanical secrets using plants long thought to be useless.''
