He is then taught how to properly use his new weapons, and how at his skill level, it is best to go for his spear whenever he has room to use it. Halibutt looks very excited. "So when do we attack the evil dwarves!" "Wait... Why are dwarves attacking your kin? I've met good dwarves! Ol Glosur!" Erak, the Nord who first spoke with him, explains.

"Glosur good. Others bad. Do not know why they make slaves."

The leader of this party of raiders, or Thane, a man called Sven Stone-Skin, further clarifies. Unlike Erak, he is fluent in Westron, Nordic, and over a dozen other languages, besides being a fierce warrior.

"It is because of the treaty of Minas Anor gave the Dwarves Angmar, which supposedly makes it morally acceptable for the Dwarves to screw over our brethren any way they choose. We don't buy into that. It's a matter of pride. We will not bow. We will not break."
