Here in Esterhold we are so independent, now, that we can stay awake till late at night without telling Eriadna.
What's the difference between the Thyatian empire and the Alphatian empire? The first is the exploitation of humans by other humans, the second is the exploitation of humans by other humans.

A Dwarf walks into an inn in Specularum, orders three pints of Kelvin Beer and sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When he finishes them, he comes back to the desk and orders three more. The innkeeper asks him, 'You know, a pint goes flat after I draw it; it would taste better if you bought one at a time.' The Dwarf replies, 'Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is in Dengar, the other in Darokin, and I'm here in Specularum. When we all left home, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together.' The innkeeper admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there. The Dwarf becomes a regular in the inn, and always drinks the same way: He orders three pints and drinks them in turn. One day, he comes in and orders two pints. All the other regulars notice and fall silent. When he comes back to the desk for the second round, the innkeeper says, 'I don't want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my condolences on your great loss.' The Dwarf looks confused for a moment, then a light dawns in his eye and he laughs. 'Oh, no,' he says, 'everyone's fine. I've just quit drinking.'
The best people, like the best wines, come from the hills. (halfling proverb)
