Chali was awakened abruptly by Derin's failed attempt to sneak in to his room with a note. "Leaving so soon? We have only covered a year or so back, I have been gone for two."
"I know," Derin began to say sheepishly, "But among all the talk yeserday I remembered how urgently your Brother was needed, so I asked around and your brother was spotted only a couple of miles from here. So I thought I'd leave you this note by your bed and be off quick."
"Then by all means leave the note and be off now, for I am still asleep." Chali said cooly, giving the dwarf another of his famous smiles. Derin proceeded to silently place the note by Chali's head, and tip-toe as best a dwarf can back out of the room.
I need to get up now, Chali thought to himself, never know when you might be needed. He then proceeded to dress and to wash his face.
As Chali stepped out of the room he smelled the sweet scent of breakfast and ale wafting up. He entered the room found an open table, and feasted on the smells.
