The account of the life of Thrym. Scibed by Thrym this writing is accurate. ::When I awoke in the Cloud temple many years ago I was but a beardling. I did not know where I was or where to go. Following the instuctions of the monks I learned that by using my soulstone I could travel to the capitol of the dwarves. I did not know the way the land seeming unfamiliar. When I arrived in Kal'Urguan, transported by the powers of Aegis, I met a dwarf known as Gotrek Firemane. He was an Overseer in the Whisphering Isles. ::Gotrek and I talked and he invited me to his home. Upon arriving he treated me kindly and gave me ale then let me stay to sober up. He treated me with all the hospitality a dwarf could and I remembered him ever after. ::A while after a Herald from the Valve showed up to Kal'Urguan. He was known as Martin Benedict. He was trying to rally the dwarves to put aside racial differences with the rest of Aegis and join together to combat the undead. He and I talked and I travelled with him to the valve to join the heraldry. He became my mentor after I was accepted and alone and with him I travelled all over Aegis proclaiming a joint front against the Undead. My time in the Valve was brief but even today I remeber the way to Kal'Menor. ::After a while I left the Valve to join the new dwarven army, the Free Dwarfs Army. It was while I was in the FDA that Martin and I came into contact again. ::Martin and some others including Kootry, a forest dwarf, and Sornof, an orc, had formed a guild that was dedicated to a united force against the undead. This guild was known as the United Aegis Coalition. I would help Martin and the few guild members there to build there fort near Haven from time to time but eventually Martin convinced me to leave the FDA and join him in the UAC. ::I was in the UAC for many years. I was there when Martin became ascended, when Kootry came into power, when Martin returned to take leadership as the UAC had declined from what it once was, I was there when Martin died finding Arcadius and when Sornof took control. I have faught many battles many in my time in the UAC. While in the UAC I made friends such as Maur, Renzbro, Sornof and Olde Beer Belly. ::Sadly not even the UAC could last forever. It was soon turned in the FoA, a task force of the ascended. Blaedr, also a friend of mine, was put in charge. Sornof was enraged at being demoted. I honestly believe he was one of the best leaders the UAC had and was sad to see him go. The last I saw of Sornof was him in a rage leading off some men to attack the undead. I stayed for a while in the FoA under Blaedr who I had respect for. But, it was no longer the UAC, no longer what I had joined. So, I left. I meant to return but now I don't believe and don't wish to ever return to the FoA. ::I left the FoA to visit Kal'Urguan the place I had lived for long years. There I met Gotrek again. It had been many years but I had never forgotten him. Gotrek was now the Grand Master Smith of the Dwarves. This was exactly what I had been looking for. I had travelled to Urguan to become a blacksmith. When I saw him and heard what he was doing now I requested to apprentice under him. I was accepted and became apprentice to Grand Master Smith Gotrek Firemane. While in training with him he was performing powerful enchantments and while I stood by watching his work one enchantment was very powerful and the magic seeped into the silver trinkets I had forged and was toying with in my right hand. There was a flash of light and then dark. When I awoke my Master was looking at my right arm and I beheld that it was now, from the elbow down, made completely of silver. My master said he sensed magic in it and was going to study it further. That day I left my surname of Deepdelver behind. I was now Thrym Silverfist. ::Through my time in Urguan I have been here for the reign of two kings and am here for the reign of the third. The first was Belin The Industrious who made Kal'Urguan a jewel in Aegis again. The next was Algrim The Weak who was a good king but weak and turned to evil. The King that is mi'lord now is Gotrek who was my master. Long Live the King!
