Mithril mines (3)

Since the matter had been settled, we went back over to the rest of the group.

Ivar and Varric were looking at us with strange looks, but I said, "It should be fine. We'll have to talk to someone about this, but we should be able to get the blast crystals that you were asking for."

To my surprise, there wasn't any doubt at all in their eyes as they looked at me.

Normally in situations like this, one would at least feel a bit doubtful over something like this since I had said it in such an uncertain way. But these two didn't seem to have any doubts at all, leaving it all up to me.

It was touching in a way.

But then again, this was just how the dwarves were in the first place.

They were a bit rough around the edges, but they were direct like this.

It was just how they were and it wasn't a bad thing.

Sometimes being direct like this was better than beating around the bush.
