     One dorf, pulling his hat lower so that everything about his face above the top lip was in shadow, cleared his throat softly, "I actually like nobles and their demands are quite reasonable", barely a whisper louder than the raspy breathing of others at the table.

Having listened without watching, this dwarf lifts his head and swings his eyes right and left across the table.

His brown beard is rigid and glistens, with hanging braids adorned with many small spikes.

He pushes a finger against one of the spikes and says, "Cat tallow."

There is something to be said about, if the stakes are as high, maybe reconsider your certitudes. One has to be aggressively allistic to feel entitled to be able to trust. But it won't happen to me, my bit doesn't count etc etc... Just saying, after my recent experiences I couldn't trust the public if I wanted to. People got their risk assessment neurons rotten and replaced with game theory. Folks walk around like fat turkeys taunting the world to slaughter them.

One would certainly consider dwarves as ignorant alcohol-dependent imbeciles.

I like nobles. Their mandates tend to be fairly easy to fulfill, and the mayors labor night and day to salvage their citizens' wavering sanity. Our fortresses would die much much faster without a noble or two to keep things running smoothly.

True tho, a broker ,manager, and/or mayor would serve well in most fortresses.

A dwarf with a sullen glare says: I confess I voted for a gremlin in last mayoral election to annoy the nobles... I never imagined he would win...

The fortress of boatmurdered was the single greatest success in all of dwarven history.

Definitely.

Yeah.
