Bab 23: Ten Coppery Dwarves
Hazad stopped when he finally reached the horse exchange center.
Some of the stable workers gasped when they saw his armored steed with its tail cut off, with a screeching face emblem on its shields, and one of them whispered to the other as they stopped sweeping the ground: "He's one of them (Knights of Armored Horses), he looks like he's just come from the legendary yellow east." Her colleague said to her, "Yes, this lucky one possesses an armored horse that can cross an entire phase in just one day, exactly like our superior horses, with the difference that it is a fighting horse that is not afraid of the clatter of the swords, and the weight of its armor does not affect its speed."
They learned this as soon as I looked at the deleted tail, the symbol of the armored horses of the knights, for the knights of the armored horses, do not change their horses no matter what happens, but if someone's horse dies, he will be so revered and sad for it, that he does a journey on foot that is fatal in itself, until throws himself into a (hail and flame) volcano northeast (Great Orioum).
(Hazad) whispered to his horse and patted his neck apologizing:
"I made you tired today, Seolo. Rest tonight, and we'll go on our way tomorrow."
- "Twenty coppery dwarves".
(Hazad) turned to the owner of the sentence, and found a fat dwarf, who was overlooking him from a window on the second floor in the khan attached to the horse exchange center. He seemed to be the owner of the center, so (Hazad) said to him:
- "I'm not going to replace the horse, man, I just want to take care of it and feed it."
- "Twenty dwarves too." The owner repeated.
"It is a large sum to feed one horse, dwarf. Ten coppery dwarves will suffice you."
Looking through the open door of the inn downstairs, counting the passengers, he resumed:
- "The twenty passengers inside indicate that you host about fifty guests per day, if each of them pays you that amount, you are able to collect 25,000 coppery dwarves per month, that is, a whole golden kuruş."
The dwarf realized that the knight would expose his financial affairs with his cleverness, and this was expected of Orioum's most important mercenaries, so he launched his attack at once: "Listen, you heretic." This was what the inhabitants of (Orioum) called them because the knights did not believe in the Black Gods "First, you will not find a close position to the Pink river in the whole of Kandor, and those foams on your tail-cutting horse's body means that he has made an extraordinary effort, means It will only need a well-equipped enclosure, otherwise, he will be exposed to venomous snakes, vampire bats, and savage foxes outside.
Secondly, it seems that you want to prepare it for a long journey, perhaps a whole stage, say, even (the Ten Trees Hills) in the north, and this entails dismantling all the shields, re-maintenance, and one of my skilled blacksmiths, making horseshoes and preparing shields since his childhood in (Dandan), the capital of (Washin), and you know very well the ingenuity of the Washin blacksmiths, and thirdly, no one dictates their prices to (Khakan)."
Hazad smiled happily, "Oh, you like arguing then?" Khaqan's face turned pale and he remembered the ability of these heretics to argue for hours without a drop of boredom, and the knight set out to punch him in the kind of matches that he loves:
"1: You are a dwarf and I am a knight, and (Seolo) knows before men, that you will not stand before me for a moment in any battle, be it verbal or duel, and since you have argued with me, you are now bound to listen to my arguments to the end, without a moment of indifference, without turning your face Little, uninterrupted, or else I'd have to kill you.
2: (Athermion) The first heretic has bequeathed us a good habit, which you fear very much, which is the denial of the gods themselves, and this means that if you invoked all the deceitful deities of the world against me, they would not deliver you from me, nor would any pity, religion, morals, or covenant before me avail you of them, and I would be glad to desecrate them before you with all simplicity.
3: The Seventeen Great Heroes whose fame spread the horizons in the worlds of the jinn and humans, are (Four Jinns, Three Bruneis, Two Bald-Men, Two Angorians, Naiad, Commando, Earthen, Southern, Heretical, and Alphasarian), and they do not contain one single dwarf, so who among us is closer to the truth?
4: All those travelers inside from the various walls seek the help of someone to protect them, the knights or the dwarves? Definitely, the knights, who are more capable of making a living, fighting and guarding, and not half-men, so who among us is more worthy of the truth?"
He enumerated arguments that seemed to go on forever.
