[Brewster]

You proudly hold up WallPoke The Bone of Terror as it shines in the moon light.

The weeks go by and she continues to share with you the secret art of Runesmithing. (Runesmith +5)
You've become a Novice Runesmith!

She advised not to share with others this knowledge as often Runesmiths are held against their will and chained to a forage to mass produce items their whole lives, often times without a sip of ale! She explains that is why she is being held in the jail, she refused to use the holy art for the cheap commercialism of the Fortress. She explains she is the last in her family line, and that is why she is sharing this knowledge with you, her last hope to have her families legacy continue. She teaches you the few runes she knows, strengthening, anti-strengthening, and light source. She explains there are TONS of runes, but she's never been able to find them. They are in crypts, caves, abandoned fortresses all around the lands; anywhere an engraver dwarf might have been. She explains how Runesmiths often were engravers and secretly engraved the runes for record in the very walls themselves. For ease of finding them, they are always in the main chamber, whatever that might be.

You wake up on your last day of imprisonment. You give an excited "Hello" through the hole in the wall, with no response. The gypsy, your friend, she's gone! What happened to her?

You are free from prison and receive all your belongings, except the rat hat and stone mug, they were confiscated as evidence. Sadden by the mysterious disappearance of your friend you stand outside the jailing door.

Let's go and see how our old boss is doing.

What for? We have much more fun job now.

By the way, if we find unmined gem cluster in the wall, smooth it and engrave with light rune - this should result in everlight. Make sure no one is watching you while you engrave.

Well it cannot harm to see how he fares could it?

Why do you wish to torment him?

There are few things more horrible to cave adapted drunkards than light. Every time the poor leader enters his room he will retch and vomit uncontrollably.

I don't think they will do that since they are still in a cave-like environment.
That's just part of the current game mechanics.
And Taking everything from the game mechanics kind of limits what you can do in a Forum RPG,
so I doubt OP will take it that far.

[Tirion]

You should dig out a room for yourself, buy a bed, make some furnitures. You would still have to pay rent, but probably not as much as a fully ready room is worth. That is, unless you wish to go adventuring, in which case you need armor.

Actually, cave adaptation has less to do with lack of light and more with lack of wind- beards detect subtle air movements, but surface air moves way too much for comfort if you get used to that sense. Proof for this is how dwarves working with fire in kilns and smelters don't get sick despite the light.

We should probably ask someone for permission of where to dig first.
