Better really go to counselor first. Ask in detail who's that King.
At the first opportunity find out what happened with out Mountain Home. And also, what rumors about the deeds of Likot: strange pit in place of village, someone ate by forgotten beast, what happened to those elves. 
Tok brought you to the door on the fifteenth level and left. You have knocked. Female voice invited you. Inside dwarfess sat, on the table were mugs of beer, and keg under the table.
- Come in, Likot, sit down.
You did.
- I am First Counsellor of the King - Kisat Vellokum. Feel free, don't be shy and don't be afraid. Let's wet throats to start.
She took a few generous sips. You followed her.
- I would like to see you because we need to understand whether it is possible to trust you, and whether it is dangerous to let you and your friend in our society. We unfortunately can't let you go so we just talk and define how your accommodation here will be privileged. I was talking with other amnestied, and a couple of them felt that it's better to go back to the cell than to live among dastardly Arol-Itoners. Well, there is choice. If they will not show sufficient zeal in in penal servitude, they will be immured in a coffin and will slowly die. We are tired of messing with such ungrateful stubborn fops. It is necessary to appreciate life. Right, Likot? We must be grateful for a second chance, for the future.
She sipped again, and you have used a pause:
- I want to assure you that me and Tok are very grateful for forgiveness and will try to be as helpful to the new home... But I would like to learn some news about our old mountain home. After all, native place.
- I understand. Almosy no news. Said Assarotung is dead. After the massacre ...
- Assarotung?
- Well, it's name, if we are on the same mountain home talking.
- All right, I'm just ... forgot the name.
- In general, all the goblins did not have time to get outside became victims of the Forgotten Beast, which is still wandering through the halls and corridors. It's said that under the ground heard a knock like pickaxes digging. But yet no one appeared.
- And what did you hear about the valley? It was full of goblins too.
- The majority of them returned to the Dark Tower and now there is more or less calm, but there are reports about increasing number of ghosts. Chatter that one human village collapsed underground, the King sent an expedition there in order to find the truth.
- By the way, who is the King?
- His name is Ang Zelerkadan. He had long been in charge here. And now he was crowned, and introduced the new rules.
- So you are ... friends with the humans above?
- Of course. With human, elves, dwarves.
- On the way from the old mountain home we witnessed the massacre between one elves and other ... in caps. Heard anything about it?
- No, nothing. But you have come very close to what I want to talk about.
It turned out that you've already drank a mug and it's time to open the keg. You helped to pour beer and returned to the conversation.
- So, Likot. Your friend has already told me the basic outline of your trip. That you were sent on an expedition just before the tragedy, and that managed to slip away from under the noses of goblins. But at one point you were gone and you met just in our prison. I want to know what happened to you and where you were.
You again drank and quite be drunk, began:
- Still in the Mountain Home ...
- In Assarotung?
- Yes ... I put myself under a cap plumphelmet spawn. And when we arrived in the elven groves, it became clear that it sprouted in me. I do not know what it there influenced, but I began to have signs of attention from one elven. She sort of liked me. I don't know.
- And she to you?
- Well, like anything, but ... somehow it is not in my line. Besides, she is elven! And we've got the expedition! I'm a dwarf! Mess is around! Nil regained consciousness and is it he or not! Bloody circles! Wagon exploded! Cape elves kill everyone! I'm lying in the pit! Goblin is gone! Toads are nowhere! Nothing to ride on further! Can't dig in the roots! Strange snake soup! Shorast poured potion into the mouth! A Ivety is naked! I hit her with bag! Well, I was not expecting! In general, the problems are all around, but she met me naked! I...
- Calm. calm down ... - You get into a fuss so that Kisat had to soothe you - Drink a bit.
- Yeah - you kinda took a deep breath - Well, it all came over so that when I left I really fell off the rails. Smashed all their faces and lost mind.
- Tantrum?
- Well, yes. And when I woke yp in the cart, mushroom was already cut away. So somehow all at once, I decided to no longer bring problems. Passed through the cave under the mountain and ended up in the valley. Spent the night in a deserted village. Then I went down the road to the city. While was walking I fell and broke arm. Met my guys in the town, healed and found that Tok was missing. For some reason just thought he was here. Then crawled to help out a comrade. I wanted to go quietly but Nil charged straight. Broke the door, killed the gatekeeper, died. Dick was irascible. Did not listen to me and caught bolt in the chest, fool.
Beer again was over and you poured one more. Vision floated, but you real wanted chatting. Kisat was drunk too.
- What else can I tell?
