Snorri nodded calmly. In fact, he knew a lot about the night goblins. Which dwarf player has not fought dozens of rounds with these dark guys in the East and West Badlands, Karak-Eight Peaks Mountain?
?
"Has this news been reported to Lord Porrok?" Snorri asked. Before Knight Fatis could answer, two hammer guards of Lord Porrok ran over.
"I'm sorry to bother you so late, my dear Goddess of Choice!" They took a breath before speaking slowly. "Our lord and his wife invite you to the fortress hall to discuss matters."
"Please lead the way!" Snorri nodded, and several Hammer of Eternity guards followed him. They headed all the way to the upper level of Karak Norn.
Snorri found that the atmosphere in the fortress had changed from the cheerful one when the convoy first arrived, and was now a bit heavy. It seems that the news of the appearance of night goblins in the ley line network has been spread.
Entering the throne room of Desolate Castle, Snorri found that there were already many middle-level and high-level dwarves discussing matters here. The main seat now had the same two chairs as at the reception banquet, with Lord Porrok and Seer sitting respectively.
Queen Ma, it seems that the privileges Porok promised when recruiting his bride are far more than special diplomatic qualifications.
In the tradition of dwarf society, women generally appear as mediators in the parliament and do not easily choose sides in the parliament. According to tradition, this is to commemorate Valaya, the mother goddess of the dwarves, who has been acting like this since the beginning of the world.
role.
The wife of the patriarch or the queen of the fortress will be eligible to participate in the meeting led by her husband. Of course, the queen's role as the king's chief advisor is also part of the tradition.
Unlike them, Queen Thelma now has the same rights as Lord Porrok to preside over the foreign and internal affairs of the Deserted Castle.
Although Lord Porok may still have the dominant power at the moment, in any case, it is shocking enough in a dwarf society that respects tradition.
"Everyone, everyone, be quiet! If we scream like insects, we will never reach a conclusion!" Lord Boluoke spoke out to suppress the noisy people.
"Now a large number of goblins have appeared in the leyline network. These dirty things have cut off our communication with Karak-Azgraz. There have been no messengers or merchants coming over there for ten days! The compatriots over there must have encountered
There's trouble." Queen Thelma's voice rang out.
Snorri raised his head and looked at the female dwarf. At the previous banquet, due to Balin's reminder and Master Earthshaker's embarrassing speech, he almost kept looking at the food in front of him without communicating with Thelma.

Queen Thelma's appearance is quite heroic. Different from the round and soft facial lines of normal dwarf women, her face is somewhat angular, showing an aggressiveness that other women do not have.
In terms of height, she is slightly taller than the same sex, and she is almost level with her husband when standing next to her.
"We must take some action! Dauntless Castle was directly impacted by Gollum's waaagh. The damaged fortifications should not have been repaired. If she unfortunately falls, our connection with Breeze Castle will also be cut off.
!"
Queen Thelma's voice echoed in the hall. Her voice was as heroic as her appearance. Snorri suddenly remembered an adjective from his previous life - the sound of gold and stone.
"But we, Karak Norn, were not attacked by that greedy villain!"
"Even the pointed ears in the woods suffered. The guy cut down a lot of trees to build his bungalow!"
"Your Majesty Grimnir! Have you heard the news from the Horn Castle? That warlike guy Arik Lufusun is going to settle his feud with the wood elves again!"
"It's okay if he just runs away after beating himself! Wait until the middle of next summer, and that deer-headed thing will come to us again to cause trouble!"
The tribesmen present showed their dwarf characteristics again, and muttering sounds could be heard everywhere. Snorri's system could only see the hatred level of his own faction, but he didn't need to guess to know that the people of the Deserted Castle were very satisfied.
Average.
"We need to send out a force. In addition, we need to inform our human friends. At the foot of the Northern Gray Mountains are the Reikland of the Empire and the Principality of Palaon in Bretonnia. There is an ancient alliance, and they will definitely not let it go.
No matter!"
As a dwarf who is determined to change, Lord Porok is different from the proud and stubborn traditional tribesmen, and often does not mind seeking help from allies.
"This may be a little difficult, my Majesty!" The internal affairs officer beside him suddenly poured a basin of cold water on it.
"The Reikland is busy rebuilding, and William III is probably powerless. As for Bretonnia, not long ago, the Knight King Charon claimed that he had received the oracle from the Lady of the Lake - to destroy everything in the world.
Greenskin. He therefore launched a large-scale chivalrous war and wanted to fight all the way to the Badlands!"
Listening to the words of the internal affairs officer, various voices sounded in the hall again. Some tribesmen were praising the knight king's feats, while others criticized him for overestimating his capabilities.
"This took away the main force of the Knight Kingdom. At the same time, the knights of Palaon, their adventurous spirit is the strongest in Bretonnia. Of course, this is also related to the relatively barren land in the area.
But in any case, the most they can provide at the moment is a few Pegasus knights to gather information." After the internal affairs officer finished speaking, he stood aside with his hands hanging, and handed the decision-making power back to the lord and his wife.
"What can we do? We suffered a lot of losses before!"
"My ancestors and gods! How come you can't kill all those green mushrooms?"
"The people of Fearless Castle should be able to withstand it, right? There shouldn't be many greenskins in this wave, right?"
After hearing the analysis of the internal affairs officer, the tribesmen in the hall started shouting again. Since they just experienced a war not long ago, it can be predicted that there will be another war next year. Even a tough race like the dwarves will feel war-weary.
.
Lord Pojok on the stage was a little embarrassed. Compared to the tribesmen who paid more attention to immediate interests, those in high positions took a longer-term view. They understood the weakness of Fearless Castle, but they also knew her importance.
However, the royal family of Karak-Norn's control over this place cannot easily overwhelm the noise.
Pojok's father, Sagar the Gold-seeker, once announced in the fortress that he would levy a beer tax, but this move caused all the dwarves in the fortress to gather between the thrones and resolutely protested silently against the decree. In the end
The lord also had to make concessions.
Seeing Lord Pojok's pleading look, Snorri straightened the collar of his dress and coughed slightly, realizing that it was time for him to speak up.
