Dana came back a short time later.Lisa, your friend, had a nasty arrow shaft near her wing base.Alex has already taken it off and is taking care of her.Additionally, she carried that worg's charred remains.When I brought you into the house, Steve informed me that she only took a few minutes to arrive.It appears that you and the hippoLisa are friends.In order to feed her, Alex also used his sword to slice the corpse in half.Steve is also assisting.David, my other half, and my daughter Stella have returned as well.

I nodded.I had high hopes that this would be the case.Lisa was used to getting in touch with people.At least, not completely, she was not wild.I am treated well by your family.Please inquire about how I can repay your kindness.

"Are you kidding me?You saved my youngest son, Canutt.That worg is one I've seen.To think that monster would have ripped apart my son..." Dana's face was sad.a look back at past suffering and time.There had been no error.This woman has experienced tragedy before.I instantly connected with this human woman.I'm becoming aware of the ability to endure tragedy and keep moving forward.

"It's fine, Dana.I did not intend..." "Don't belittle me!"

The vehemence shocked me.She had a terrible incident in the past.I never would, ma'am.A woman has already kicked my ass.That would be preferable not to happen again.

After a brief pause, her expression returned to the one I recognized.She chuckled.Canutt, I am so sorry.None of that was due to you.I ask for your pardon.

I took hold of her hand.Nothing can be forgiven.It appears that we both battle inner demons.

My eyes were peering into Dana's.Have you got inner demons?

"Yes, right now.You see, I don't remember anything from yesterday.Because I don't know who I am, what I am, or where I come from, I go by the name Canutt.I also know that I am not at all normal.Consider me.I am a cursed ogre disguised as a dwarf.

Canutt: "You are a dwarf.You are dwarfer than you have ever dared to admit.

I focused on her.What is your intent?”

I continued to drink as Dana restored my spirits.It happens, but it's not impossible.There is a distinct individual born into each generation of dwarves from each clan.one that is greater than the clan dwarves in size, speed, strength, and intelligence.Usually, this refers to a king or kings of kings.

Could it be that?I ruled as king?That was very logical.That would help you understand why I would be the only one to survive.Why would I belong to an entire clan?Why were we moving around?Did I relocate my brothers to a new home?Was it a party for war?Did I cause the deaths of my friends?

"Ma'am, if what you say is true, then I am an unsuccessful king," he said.

Canutt: "Why do you say that?"

I spent the following hour reminiscing about the previous day and this morning.She paid close attention and occasionally lifted my spirits.I finished both the spirits and my brief story.I held her hand while she offered more.I wanted my mental faculties in order despite the fact that there was barely any pain left.

Canutt, you are not a failed king.What you describe could have taken place with any individual and any race.Do not give up hope or feel guilty.There are forces and reasons behind whatever has occurred.It would appear that you are now required to resolve these mysteries, achieve personal tranquility, and bring closure to the deaths of all the dwarves.

Her words made sense.Naturally, she was correct.An accounting is required.Retribution is required.There must be a retribution.I now have a sense of direction thanks to this considerate elderly human being.I find it difficult to live without a sense of direction.This I was absolutely certain of.Additionally, this woman's senses and wisdom rang true to my spirit.

I was lost in thought when the doorbell rang.Alex, a human male, entered the room as soon as the door opened.I could have examined this man more thoroughly.It is built very well, but it has had some problems.Even his middle age or his left leg did not conceal how he carried himself. He carried himself with the warrior's mark.His face and eyes conveyed a sense of concern and defense against any circumstance.A spear wound appeared to be deep and fatal, and it was just to the side of his heart.

"Dana, is everything okay?Canutt?”

I got up and gave him a handshake.Indeed, he possesses a warrior's grip.Calvin is doing well.Here, your wife is a remarkable individual.You are extremely blessed to have her.

"Didn't I know that?She won my heart the moment I lay in her arms.

That is a common statement.But I could tell he was serious about it.I reciprocated Calvin's smile.That is an excellent comment.

His demeanor slightly altered.Well, I'm grateful.I mean it, though.Here, I used a large spear.He makes a point of his chest.I was dying there.I felt like my heart was no longer beating.Dana swiftly entered and pumped my heart until it began to beat again.She was my life, my angel, and my savior.

Put your foot in your mouth, chew deeply, and enjoy the flavor.I gave Dana a look.She was actually slightly blushing.I gave her a wink. "Dana, that is probably the most original short story ever written about how to win a man's heart.

Alex embraced his wife after guffawing with laughter.Apart from the hilarious skit, I could see that they were deeply in love.

I have to inquire.What caused your spear wound?

Canutt: "He jumped in my way.The ogre pointed his spear directly at me.If Alex hadn't thrown me to the ground, I would have died.I couldn't even fathom him giving his life for me.I couldn't think of anything else to do.

That concludes the article.One couple's life bond is another person's corniness.That also clarified why she had previously expressed hopeless optimism regarding her son Steve.

Alex said softly, "And I would do it again Dana."

"So, you two were fighting?"

Dana looked at me after separating from Calvin's embrace.Canutt, we were at war.We were defending Stalvinport because it needed to be defended.

The link.Naturally, it made a lot of sense.They retired when they arrived here after that war.

"I assumed that Alex's limp was also from the war?"

“Nah, she kicked my ass after I recovered from that stupid act.I made a promise to myself that I would never act in such a stupid way again.The issue was that she kicked me so hard that it nearly broke my upper leg.

I was wondering if the shoe I was chewing on came with gravy.Well, ok.

“Well, in any case, I'm glad that Dana, your wife, took care of me.Additionally, I am pleased that her instructions did not result in a broken leg.

Alex guffawed once more, and Dana blushed too.This human couple behaves like dwarfs.I enjoyed it.I glanced out the window.Since Lisa had finished eating, their children were paying close attention to her.Kids?Steve is actually a teenager.David, the other boy, was older and probably an adult.Stella was also.In any case, they were using a brush and their hands to groom Lisa.I also witnessed Steve covering her hindquarters with an old blanket.I returned my gaze to the couple.They were also smiling as they gazed out the window at Lisa and the kids.Yes, this is an excellent family with an excellent home.I spoke to Alex and Dana.

I have been treated well by you both.I also detest to impose.However, I would require some time off.However, I fully intend to work on your farm for a wage as well.

Canutt, we do not require payment.Our apple was saved by you.

"I comprehend.However, it will also allow me to avoid stiffening as I heal from these wounds.

"You are correct, my beloved wife.They are so magnificent.Canutt, if you don't mind, I need to clear out a new area.It would be wonderful if you could help me and the children with the small trees and rocks.

"Think about it, friends Alex and Dana.Take it as cleared.

I was embraced by Dana.Having straightforward terms of affection and affection felt good.Alex gently shook me while touching my right shoulder, which, thankfully, was unaffected by pain.Yes, yesterday's tragedy and misery marked the beginning of my day.However, they assert that every day is new tomorrow.And with his farmer's family, it looked like it would end well.It's possible that I don't remember my past.However, for the time being, these memories satisfy me.

A crowing rooster woke me up.It was already morning.I examined my wounds before the mirror after getting out of bed.Although greatly diminished, the two black eyes were still present.However, the fact that the deep spear wound and two slash wounds have virtually vanished made my mouth wide open.Dana does a fantastic job!Normal soreness and stiffness resulted from the stretching, but I will survive.The back of my head was where I moved my hand.That welt also greatly diminished.In point of fact, instead of throbbing, my head just felt a dull ache.Yes, the retired priestess, the farmer's wife, does excellent work.To truly repay their kindness, I will need to put in a lot of effort.I gave myself a grin.Yes, it is beneficial to live again with purpose.

I thought back to our conversation from yesterday as my body and mind awoke simultaneously.I'll have to return to that underground tomb in a few days to try to figure out more about what happened.The dead do not move, so there was no hurry.Helping the living is the most effective and quickest action.Especially when this lovely family is still alive.A large shirt was also there, I noticed.It was made by roughly cutting and sewing two human shirts together.Certainly Dana's work once more.It was merely a top without sleeves.But that was very important to me.As I put on the shirt, I wasn't surprised that it fit well—after all, she had looked at my body.With the exception of the axe and hatchet, I placed all of my weapons in a corner of the room.When clearing a field, the axe and hatchet will come in handy.I heard the kitchen's tableware clanging softly as I emerged from my room.I went to the kitchen because the aroma of food seasoned with a variety of spices made me hungry.There was also a different, odd smell.Although not unpleasant, there was some bitterness.Perhaps tea?
