One moment ago, he was calling you a dolt and a gnogger. Now, all of sudden, you are his 'friend' and the saviour sent by Anu to 'save him'! This guy must be truly desperate to ask for your help, and he's really fortunate you didn't take offense to his petty insults. You won't miss the opportunity to kill demons AND get rewarded for it in the process. The thought of asking for two sets of armour as extra prizes crosses your mind briefly, but you end up dismissing the idea - taking a mile once given an inch would probably make you lose his favour. You'll save that request for after dealing with the monster from Hell. A grateful dwarf should also be a *generous* one... and so, with all things considered, you voice your agreement with his terms. "Deaw."
Gondar's small eyes light up, accompained by a wide grin of relief. "Ah, fa-fantastic! J-just wonderful! At l-last, th-this blasted stuttering a-and those nightmares-w-will come to a-an end! At LAST!" Boy, does he look happy. He's absolutely certain of your success. "I-I can't wait to s-sleep like a ba-baby tonight! I-I was afraid of sp-speaking up after that de-demon threatened m-me, b-but I tr-trust you can handle t-this before she… i-it comes a-after me.”
“Just cuwious, but why do you take that thweat so seriouswy when the fowtess is fuw of sowdiews and pwiests?” It’s not like it can sneak in here and kill him without anybody noticing… or can it? The smith averts his gaze off yours and sighs. “T-that evil fi-fiend… i-it said it w-would devour my s-soul during my sleep if I o-opened my mouth. Oh, th-this reminds me to w-warn you that y-you must hurry and slay it t-today, o-or else n-next time I go to sleep… I-I might not w-wake up. Dear Lord, w-what a dreadful th-thought. M-my life is ba-basically in your hands, g-gnolls..." He looks at the ceiling. "... And Anu’s, a-above all.”
“Don’t wowy, Mistew Gondaw. We’w send that monstew into obwivion vewy soon!”
“I-it fills me w-with glee to hear that, m-my canine guest. M-m’kay now, l-let us not w-waste any more t-time. I’ll g-give you all the e-equipment you a-asked for…"
