Aspida seemed a little nervous while she talked.
"What's the matter?" asked Haleth, "I think I heard something by the door a few minutes ago."
"Err, nothing, it was probably a rodent, don't mind it."
" A rodent indeed, did anyone hear us?" she asked and her words were filled with anger." Did anyone hear us, I said!?"
" All right, It was that fool of a Dwarf, but don't worry, he won't tell anyone my child, not after that fierce an meaningful gaze I gave him."
"You, you stupid woman, I should have never..." Haleth ran after the Dwarf.
She found him sitting alone in the main room. She grabbed him by his collar and almost lifted him up from his chair. Her blue eyes were gray and fierce and her lips were like a colourless straight line.
"There you are you, you eavesdropper, what did you hear? Tell me or your friends will have to scrub you from the floor with their pocket knives!" she whispered sharply.
"I swear on my ancestors' bones I won't tell anyone about your secret, ma'am"
"You better be telling the truth, cause If you tell anyone, I swear there will be no place you could hide, I'll track you down and make harp strings from your bowels!"
"Yes ma'am." whispered Dwarin.
"And it's sir for you." she said frowning.
