Davenor the wizard nods, his hat shaking along with his wrinkly old head. "Yes, I have. Red hats, just like yours." He blinks, his crusty eyes looking into your gnomish ones. "I didn't get to talk to them but I watched them climb up some tree roots into a hole in the ceiling. If you asked me, I'd assume they were heading to the surface."
Your heart flutters. Maybe everyone grew tired of trying to carve out a place of their own in the dungeon. You can't really remember why you moved out of the old village into this place before. Was it something about a monster in the forest? Witches hunting you down for potions and spells? For some reason, the memories are fuzzy.
"Thank you, Davenor. Also, have you ever met a little dog-person down here by the name of Jack-o?" You're relatively sure that this wizard hasn't met your friend. Jack-o did say that he hadn't had visitor since Master left. Eh, but perhaps they received Davenor before that time?
The wizard squints his eyes. "Hmm, that doesn't ring a bell." He shakes his head.
"That's alright. Hey, how about we trade spells? I'm a magic-user too. My parents always hoped I'd become a powerful magician."
Davenor's eyes light up. "Oh? What gnomish secrets can you share with me? And what would you like to learn in return?" He grins.
