Unusual world 78 Universal language Part 2

Inside a popular bar visited by many of the city guards was Desmond and his friends. The bar had a cozy feel to it and had pictures and metals from soldiers on the walls. The pictures regardless if the soldier was old, retired, K.I.A (killed in action), or new was hung on the walls with pride. The owner was a former soldier who retired after many years of service, he also gives a 20% discount to all soldiers so its an easy reason why people frequent the place.

Sitting at a large table packed with all kinds of strange food was Desmond and his friends. They where all drinking their butts off and eating their fill. Everyone secretly agreed to dump the bill on Desmond so why wouldn't they enjoy themselves to the fullest.

As one of the servers past by the table Roy stopped him while still a little tipsy from drinking and said, "waiter where having a celebration for my friend here, so bring us a bottle of the most expensive drink you have".

The was waiter a thin man with combed back hair he took out his note book then said to Roy, "that is no problem currently the most expensive drink we have is Fire Dragon's Breath it costs 100 magic crystals per bottle".

Even if he was drunk Roy would never be drunk enough to buy something that expensive especially if it wouldn't even last an hour. Snapping out of his stupor Roy said to the waiter, "on second thought i'll just have your cheapest bottle instead".

"So, you want a bottle of Gobelin Piss that sounds like its in your price range, one bottle will cost 20 Drachma. There is no need to be concerned its not actually Gobelin Piss inside the the bottle its just a name".

"I wasn't concerned about that before so what is inside the bottle if not Gobelin Piss?" Roy asked questioningly.

The waiter shrugged his shoulders as he said, "I don't know its not like I made it probably some other kind of piss, you should buy a bottle and find out". The waiter then penned in Roy's order for a bottle of Gobelin Piss then asked everyone else if they wanted anything. Roy tried to tell the waiter he didn't want any Gobelin Piss, but he was ignored.

Desmond butted in and asked for a more reasonably priced quality drink for everyone at the table. The waiter listed a few different kinds of alcohol that people don't buy because there to expensive. Out of the list Desmond chose a drink called Nymph's Delight for 20 magic crystals. It was a sweet bitter kind of alcohol that turns your breath into a rainbow after drinking it.

Desmond could afford every drink and food at the bar, but he didn't want to waist his money on stuff like that. After taking the order the waiter left and Roy started to complain about him.

"Does anyone elses think that guys a smart ass?" looking around the table Roy saw no one else agreeing with him.

Lance said with a mouth full of popper fish to Roy, "you should be thanking him for bringing you back to your senses before you actually did something stupid like buy something you couldn't afford".

Roy refuted what Lance said and told him "thats impossible no dwarf like me would lose there reasoning just because of a few drinks".

Everyone stopped eating when they heared what Roy said while John got some food stuck in his throwt and had to spit it out. Not believing a word of what Roy mentioned John said to him, "you a dwarf do you even know what a dwarf is It would be more believable if you said you were a giant".

The others agreed including Desmond everyone knew what dwarfs where there was no need to explain them, but Roy looked nothing like a dwarf. Roy was a husky man a bit hairy, but not overly so like a dwarf he looked more like a normal human then anything else.

Roy wanting to settle everyones doubt explained that both his parents where dwarves, but they where not full blooded dwarves. Over the generation other things got mixed into their family blood line thats why both him and his sister don't look like Dwarves.

Desmond had questions about the science of all that, but he just let it slide because the physiology of thing on this world where most likely different then his old one. Now knowing that his friend was a dwarf Desmond asked him something, he knew it was a long shot, but he might as well ask him and find out.

Waving at Roy to get his attention Desmond said to him "Roy I know that Dwarves are considered to be some of the greatest botanist in the world. A major change from the famed metal workers you're race used to be because you're race lost a large amount of the techniques you're people developed over the generations. All because of the after math during The War of The Fallen, but I must know does your family have any of those forging techniques or any thing else i'll gladly pay to copy it down".

Even if the hope was small and even though he know there was most likely nothing there Desmond was still heart broken learning his family had nothing like that.

"Information like that depending on what it is is next to priceless. I know that many clans have found all kinds of things related to ancient dwarven techniques and a few old households that have lasted a couple thousand years should definitely have some. Besides that if you want quality weapons and armor you have to go to the fire giants like everyone else".

Learning that he could get weapon made by actual fire giants Desmond wasn't nearly as heart broken as before because having things made by fire giants were way cooler than dwarves.
