"I see I managed to cause all of you some surprise." The king of the deep had allowed the other dwarves to grab their chances at fame and honor. While he had already formed his own pet contract with the egg of his choosing. 

"That may have been one of the wisest decisions we have seen a ruler make. You found the perfect way to encourage the miners to go out and explore along with giving them a chance to rise well beyond their current standing in the entirety of their people. You won't need to worry about the fact that they won't begin to return to work." Walker couldn't stop himself from speaking his mind. 

​​

"Ya think I would be a king if I only cared for myself? I may be a dwarf but I do hold pride in dwarves and not self interest. But I did choose the best looking egg." The king held out a slightly larger egg that Walker used the all around appraisal skill on. 

'Contracted silver skinned work egg

This egg is part of a pet contract with the dwarf known as the king of the deep caves; Reinhardt. The silver skinned worm larva inside is close to the hatching phase of its' lifecycle and requires dense earth elemental mana to condense its' first skiing and break the silver egg shell. This specific larva has a unique bloodline within its' body; Cave carving worm.'

Walker didn't say a word but instead looked at the king. "Can the dwarves appraise monster eggs or monsters like this?" The king narrowed his eyes at this simple sounding question that had nearly no relation to what they were talking about. 

"We do have some tamers and breeders system, but they can not appraise the eggs normally. They need the egg to hatch and at the very least can appraise the species of the egg along with helpful hints as to how to hatch the egg faster...why?" 

This was what Walker wanted to hear. He had a feeling that the all around appraisal skill could tell him more because it was not a specified or appraisal kill. Sometimes it would give him little information. He had used it on an apple before and received a fairly basic response from the system. But now he used it and got a very unique response that a very unique appraisal system would need to receive.

"If I told you I knew a secret about the worm within that egg and also a way to hatch it, what would you give?" This was a dangerous gamble to make. The king had already called for a meeting which he disliked immensely. But now Walker was pushing him with something that he would want more than anything, it was a dwarven dream to raise such a rare pet. Even more, Walker had said there was a secret.

The king of the deep caved pushed Walker and the others a distance away from the dwarves that were raving about their eggs and how they would be the next masters of silver skinned worms. They needed a place slightly out of the way to speak. The other dwarves wouldn't dare to bother the king when he looked busy. 

"Name your price and I will decide if I find it worth it." The king said this in a deep and harsh tone that showed how careful Walker needed to be with his demands. 

"For the hatching method and the secret I want to ask for something I feel only a king would have power to help us with. I want to full the process of making a spiritual weapon or armor along with a spirit blacksmith or forgerer. I also want to have your unconditional support to change this process." 

"These are within the power I have. But are you prepared to push back against nearly every dwarf here?" Walker understood that the king was saying this because the spirit forging process was considered one of the greatest secrets and combined goals of the dwarven race. It would eventually lead them to a sentient weapon. 

"Yes, if I can change it, it could lead your spirit forging methods to the end goal along with uniting elves and dwarfs. I have a theory that I wish to apply. One that I think dwarves are too stubborn for and elves have been too cautious to attempt." Walker had felt an overcoming revelation about the spirits and what made dwarves and elves different. He was sure he could at the very least change the way the dwarves went about spirit forging.

"Then I agree on my title as king of the deep caves, now, I swear on my soul and my system."

'Reinhardt; King of the deep caves has sworn upon his soul and system to the true hero, Walkers', proposal. This is upheld by the will of the world and can not be broken.' 

Walker and the king saw this system notification and Walker held a hand to the king to shake. The two gave each other the respect of brothers in this moment. It was not something one would take lightly. The king was pushing for his people and his very standing with them, while the hero had their own goals for the good of all. 

"You need very dense earth elemental mana. The larva inside is trying to make its first skin to hatch and without the mana it will fail to break the silver shell of its' egg." The king flashed a look of wonder and nodded carefully while holding himself back for Walker to explain the secret he had mentioned. 

"This silver skinned worm, in particular, is more than that. It has the blood of an ancient cave carving worm. I may not know what king of ancient monster that was but I have the feeling that as a dwarven king of the deep caves you know much more than I do."
