*All around Tesrae work progresses on the rebuilding project as the Dwarves of clan MacAbre work in shifts to have the city built to their exacting standards. Anyone looking closely enough will see that many of the Dwarves wear Crowan or Longstorian holy symbols. The leader of the group, a female Dwarf of red tresses and long braids from head to waist watches over the work with satisfaction. As always accompanied by two Dwarves in full plate armour, bearing heraldry of the riveted heart and her slate-scribe.
Halthane can be seen around the city lending a hand to work to rebuild Tesrae's defences, such as they are. When not working chisel, hammer and saw the house wagon is parked near to the local barracks. The wagon has had parts of it stone-clad and is looking more like a building by the day.
The Red-haired Dwarf often stops by the wagon and speaks with Halthane sometimes when she leaves one of the armoured dwarves wil stay and train with Halthane. This Dwarf is much broader than Halthane with a long grey beard spilling from under his helm, which he never removes. Anyone watching the training will see that it consists of combat matches which end as soon as Halthane lands a blow on his opponent. The matches are long and brutal as the older dwarf is a master of the axe Halthane has to work hard to get close to him and often takes a lot of punishment. Once the blow has landed they stand and the older dwarf talks to Halthane at length saying things like; "The battle is the forge, the dwarf it's metal. Only if you withstand the heat and fire and let it mould you will you become a weapon" and "Your heart must be as Iron, tempered and unyielding" before they take steps back and the next match begins.*
