616 616. Harsh Terms

Su was instantly understanding of why this was called the table of diamond. There was a table carved from the largest diamond Su had ever seen. The triangular table was made so that each of the kings would be able to equally look at the others. It was a way for them to stay on equal ground. 

The room otherwise had painted pictures of past kings along with a few displayed ores and armors that marked the historical milestones of the dwarven city. "This is where we kings meet. It is more of a tradition than anything else. But it means a lot. Not many have come within these walls that were not dwarves." 

The king of the surface was sure to point out the rarity. It wasn't to be cruel but to make a point that a hero was a presence the dwarves saw with respect. "Thank you for your trust." Su made sure to respond with her own respect. However, she was lucky not to be kept entertaining the two other kings for long.
