“So, basically, we’re a bit stuck. We don’t have the original schematics for Terra. From what we’ve been told, Terra was able to build herself with the help of her parents. However, they’re dead and Terra is still in hibernation.”


    “You can’t make her body?” I asked.


    “We can make the body. I can easily create her an indestructible body made of the finest materials this world has ever known. Um... we just can’t make it move. This is technology above our understanding. I’m sorry!” Gabbro lowered his head as an apology.


    “Well, that answers one question. The other question... why are all of you in my boss room?” I demanded.


    I had left my bedroom this morning only to find the entire deep dwarf colony had seemingly made themselves comfortable in my boss room.


    “Ah... that...” Gabbro looked away innocently.


    “We appreciate that you’ve offered us a place in Chalm,” Lapis spoke up. “However, we are dwarves, and not just dwarves, but deep dwarves. Most of us have never been on the surface before. We were born underground, and we will die underground.”


    “It’s not that I don’t want to help you, it’s just that the person most certified to create an underground area for you is Terra, who is also... um... indisposed at the moment.”


    “Gh!” Gabbro made a noise as we both looked in his direction. “I’m really trying here!”


    I let out a small sigh. “I’ve been planning a trip to Jespain for a while now. Their ability to create magical artifacts is unparalleled. They make the best inventory rings, airships, and yes, even golems. Once we go there, we’ll find a professional who can help us. Terra had said her parents game from Shie Gescar, but I honestly believed they must have at least learned in Jespain.”


    “Ah! Of course! Jespain used to trade with us back in our glory days. I wonder what wonderful inventions they have these days.” Gabbro was eager to change the subject and get attention off of himself.


    “Well, I’ll need...”


    “Master! It’s an emergency! Meet me at the city gate!”


    This message came from Xin. Xin was someone who took everything seriously. If she was calling me, then there was a problem.
