Zefon Geshudginet which translates to Zefon Fortresscrewed was a monster slayer.
As a typical monster slayer he fought cave crocodiles, troglodytes and other menaces from the caves.
Also as a typical monsterslayer he got wounded. Grave wounds covered his body. But he was more lucky than most. Just in time he got rescued and brought to a hospital. Now his face and neck are covered with stitches. Stitches with pigtail thread. Stitches with cave spider silk.
Somehow Zefon could not remember where he left his weapon. That happens more to monster slayers who lose their weapon in a fight. Special magic from outside the dwarven realms bestowed new armor on him.
He continued the fight. Now as a wrestler. With no surprise he got wounded again. On his elbow. Stitches with pigtail thread. Stitches with cave spider silk. And again on his back. Stitches. And again... more stitches.
After a time of seemingly madness, the overseer retired. Life of the dwarves continued as normal and a year passed. But their luck was short lived. The overseer unretired, with new crazy demands.
Zefon was (travelling) at the time, but returned as fast as he could. Soon he went on to be a wrestling monsterhunter. The overseer took little notice. Monsterhunters come and go - often not in a good way.
To the surprise of the overseer Zefon Fortresscrewed petitioned again to join the fortress. Miserable from being unable to craft, miserable from being unable to acquire something, miserable from many unfulfilled needs.
Time will tell if Zefon is better off now. Or is Fortresscrewed.
