Farnin looks in marvel, "So this feast, I have only heard legends and wives' tales about knights from across the 4 compass points, what is it?" "All the Swan Knights in all the world return for a three-week festival of feasting, tourniments, and story-telling. Medals and promotions are also done during the festival, and it is a mighty event indeed. We still have several hours until the feast begins, is there anything you'd like to see here?" "Yes, may I see your smithies?" "I dare say we don't produce as good of armour as you dwarves, but the elven blood has not left us yet..."

Imrahil leads Farnin down a few hallways, and down some steps into a massive armoury/smith. The blades, the armour, and the forges all have a very elven feel. Few workers are even there, and those that are there, are cleaning up and preparing to leave.

"Getting ready for the feast" Imrahil explains "Anything special about our smith?"

"Hm, very rarely do I see so much silver untilized in armour and weapons, it is unorthodox but not at all ineffective, I wish my fief had such luxuries like yours. Perhaps we could both benefit somehow, a training workshop perhaps where your smiths can come to Khazad Sarkhah and be taught at the Great Forge and we too can learn from them." "Your smiths, the greatest in all Middle-Earth, learning something from mine?! Ha!"

"Your kind know techniques that many dwarves are too zealous or ignorant to learn, at least this way we'd be learning from men and not elves."
