[Standing in front of the machine known as the terminal, Thorin frowned. He had only figured out how to work this from others he had met upon arriving into the tower. He hoped his calls would be answered as he was not in the best of moods right now. Being kidnapped was something any dwarf objected to.]

If anyone is listening to this, I have some questions. Do you know who abducted us from our world and placed us within this tower? I demand to be told why and if there is a way out. [There has to be.]

Also, is there anywhere to find food and drink as I am rather hungry and thirsty. I cannot live on fresh air alone.

[This was directed to his captors, whomever they might be.]

I urge someone to answer this as I am need of aid and answers. I will not be held in this prison willingly. Know this.

As long as you're on one of the outdoor floors, I don't see why not.

[This was perking Thorin's spirits up immensely. Hunting and cooking food outdoors? He would rather be doing that than skulking around dingy floors.]

I thank you for this information, lad. What is your name? I am Thorin Oakenshield. Do you know if there is a smithy or blacksmith around somewhere?

Most people just call me Satsujinki. For what you want, there's a workshop on floor fifteen but the equipment is pretty rickety so you have to be careful when using it.

Satsujinki. [He nodded once.]

Rickety? Ill news indeed. We dwarves are used to strong equipment meant for heavy use and wear. I will have to search for this workshop.

You're a dwarf? [He's read stories and all...]

...you could probably use the tools there to forge better tools. Heck, with that kind of skill, you could probably make a living by making things for people.

Perhaps that will be my line of work. I do not know yet. [He nodded proudly. Making new tools could be useful.]

You know of dwarves and their craftsmanship skill?

It might sound weird but where I'm from, dwarves are pretty popular in fantasy books. All I really know is that they're good craftsmen and that they hate elves.

Books? We are real as the stone on which you stand on now. [They were no fairy tale but living people. A strong, proud folk.]

We are good at our craft. Hate? There is a reason why we do not get on with our pointy-eared neighbours.

I don't really doubt that. I've seen some pretty fantastic things in my time so I'm not really surprised.

I figured. They're pretty stuck up and enjoy nature while dwarves tend to be considered lower than them and prefer machinery, right? That's definitely a situation where no one is going to get along.

[He looked at the boy and nodded. It was surprising just how much he knew about the relations between dwarves and elves.]

What books were these which you gained information about our peoples? We are good blacksmiths and craftsmen. We are also strong warriors who never back down in the face of death.

They're just story books. I probably read a few as a kid but I don't even remember what they were about. They always had things like giants and trolls and wizards.

Story books? [Thorin had seen his fair share of trolls, giants and wizards.]

I travel with a wizard named Gandalf. He is with my company of dwarves and hobbit, seeking to reclaim our long lost home, Erebor. Trolls and giants are dangerous, savage killers. You'd do well to stay away from them.

I don't really have an issue with any of that. I've fought and killed more than my fair share of magic users too so it's no big deal.

Good luck with your home though.

[Would he ever see Erebor again? Now that he was stuck inside this cursed tower.]

You fought wizards?

They call themselves magi. I don't know if that's the same as a wizard.

Is that not the same as being a wizard? [Thorin did not care as he didn't trust wizards for the most part.]

Like I said, I don't know. The terminology is pretty weird.

All magic users are strange. You cannot trust them. [That was his decision.]
