Bernice was doing a quick head count of her hosts, who were now sitting around their kitchen table, each at a

Wolsey shrugged a languid cat shrug. 'Perhaps they've escaped from some travelling show. I hear the King has a
new plan to deal with such as they: it's called Care in the Entertainment Community.'
'We have not escaped from a show!' exclaimed Moody. 'We work in our mine, and sell the rubies and diamonds
that we find there in the village market.'
Bernice frowned. 'Is there much of a market for precious stones in a small agrarian community?'
The dwarves all looked at her blankly.
