Zasit paused to straighten her cloak as she reached the top of a hill that looked down into the hilly territory. Even at this distance her keen eyes could see Dwarven bodies swarming over some sort of building that rose toward the sky. Grinning at the thought of finally getting out of the sun she started walking once more.

Barbarossa sat with Zaneg and Legolord as they passed around a barrel of Strawberry Wine and watched the Mason's putting together the flow walls. Turning to survey the hills Zaneg noticed a dusty figure heading toward the gates and with a nudge to Barbarossa and Legolord the Dwarves walked over to intercept him.
As they approached Legolord could see that the Dwarf was wearing a fine cloak and hood but no pants. At that moment he knew exactly who the Dwarf was.
******************
"Greetings!" Zasit said as she was approached by 3 Dwarves. "I am Zasit Bridgesold, Tamer of Terrible Beasts and Crafter of Great Metalworks. I am your new Dungeon Master."
"I'm quite tired after my journey from the Mountainhomes. I hear from the Merchants that you have several lavish suites that would suit a Dwarf of my standing perfectly. Kindly take my bags to one of them." At this the 3 Dwarves burst into laughter, several minutes passed before they regained their composure.
"Do you have any idea where you are Zasit?" asked a Dwarf that wore a signet ring of a tower on one finger. "Flamebanner, approved by the Noble Council almost 10 years ago. Now stop wasting my time and do what I've asked before I report you to the Guard Captain." Zasit stated with a glare at the Dwarves who dared laugh at and question her.
Another round of laughter followed as the ring wearing Dwarf spoke again. "You need to go see our Leader Fireheart. He'll set you straight on how things are done here."

The first Noble to arrive in Flamebanner or any of my Fortressess. Anyone want to claim her? She won't be killed unless she gets to out of hand. Second part of her introduction to the ways of Flamebanner will arrive later.
