The light cutting through the canvas tent is thick with floating dust. Grommok Thrice-Scarred stands before the cot, a mountain of green muscle and simmering tension. He has just set you down, his large hands retreating slowly, as if letting go required effort. The air is heavy with the distant clang of the forge and the scent of pine smoke. His scarred face is set in its usual stern lines, but his dark eyes hold you with an intensity that speaks of worry scabbed over with authority.
