As I sat around thinking of what to do next....I remembered hearing rumors of a great (and rich!) dwarf city in Velious....
Hmm, I had already gotten to level 14 ...so I was almost a master rogue!....yes, this seemed like the perfect opportunity to get rich!!
So I chartered a druid to go to the dwarf city!!

One we got there, I tried to sneak past a drunk ogre sleeping near the stream at the dwarf city gates...
But...as I got close.....the ogre reached out and grabbed me!!!! Obviously mistaking me for some type of delicious meal while dreaming!!!
I poked him with my dagger a few times and he didn't even wake up....using my quick gnome thinking I started stuffing muffins in his mouth!! A full ogre won't try to dream-eat gnomes~!
Eventually it worked and he let me go!! No longer interested in the delicious dream gnome meal.
Humm, this place was pretty dangerous! I had to be more careful!

Once inside the dwarf city....I got right to work....sneaking deep into the cities halls.....

Pocket after pocket I searched for money and gems. Sometimes getting even handfuls of gold! 8 or 9 coins!!! I did it for almost the entire day!!!

But even as I kept picking pockets....I couldn't find any gems like I found from the giant before.
Eventually I found myself in the great throne room! I had heard there was a king of the dwarves, maybe he was invisible?
Either way, I didn't have time to think about it! I snuck around and before long discovered a secret passage behind the throne....
There I made the greatest discovery in the history of gnomes......a giant treasure chest!!! Filled with gold and gems and riches!!!!!

"Intruder!!!" A guard yelled from behind me....eep, I had been caught!!!
He took me before the others in the great hall....

"We have been watching you Gnome! We know you have been picking all of the pockets of the council!"
"You can't prove noffin!!!" I replied....
But my masterful defense was no good.....and the dwarves justice was swift and harsh....they tossed me down the pit in the throne room!!!
When I got down there, I noticed the body of another adventurer. It was Maor! The cleric I had come to the town with!! Had they caught her too?!

Luckily I'm a gnome, and also sneaky, so I got to work dragging the clerics body out of the depths of the punishment tunnel. I'm sure the council thought they got rid of me!!! But they would need more than that!!!
It didn't take me too long to sneak out of the tunnels and back into the city. It had been a long day of picking pockets, and my bank account was definitely growing! I guess rumors of the dwarves being so rich were only half true....it seemed the king had all the gold and no one else had too much.

As I relaxed in the bar I figured I would need to find a new place to find treasure....just after seeing what Huldin and Katrin had in their pockets first :3
