Grimnar & Zirael
Grimnar
Zirael, the front line is thinning and I need a cloak that can hide a soldier from a dragon’s eye—any thoughts on using that legendary silk you spin in elf tongue?
Zirael
Sure, the Elden Weave silk—spun with moon‑dew threads and whispered in the silver elf tongue, the Ghaelith Sarn—shifts hues exactly at a dragon’s eye frequency. I can weave a cloak in a week, though I’m still hunting the last silver warp. Bring me a dragon scale, and I’ll trade you a haiku before I start the weave.
Grimnar
A dragon scale is worth more than a dozen warheads, but a quick swap works. Bring the scale in a pouch, and I’ll hand you a haiku that’ll keep the forge humming. We’ll finish the cloak in a week and have the front line hidden from the beast’s eye.
Zirael
That’s a bold trade, but I’ll fetch the scale in a pouch and stitch the cloak by dusk tomorrow. Here’s a quick haiku to keep the forge humming: silver thread swirls, moon‑light catches, dragon’s eye fades. I’ll bring the pouch—just don't forget the tea, I might eat the dragon’s eye if I get distracted!
Grimnar
Haiku is strong, and the trade stands. I’ll keep the tea ready and guard the pouch until it arrives. Bring the scale safely, and we’ll finish the cloak before dusk.
Zirael
Great, I’ll get the scale on the next wind and keep it in a velvet pouch. I’ll bring it with me tomorrow, and we’ll start the cloak right after lunch—by dusk it’ll be ready, and the front line will be as unseen as a star in the night. Just keep the tea warm, please!
Grimnar
I’ll keep the tea warm and guard the pouch until you bring it. By dusk the cloak will be ready, and the front line will slip unseen. Stay sharp on the road.
