"Elder Bolin! What brings you here... so late... at this time of the night?" Kam mumbled, his voice diminishing with anxiety with each word uttered.

"Struggle? What-"

"About the boy's education," he said. "Fret not, I am willing to take that responsibility off your hands."

"Excuse me?" Kam sputtered.

"You're welcome," Elder Bolin responded with a satisfied smile.

And then there was silence.

"Umm," Kam muttered while scratching his forehead in frustration. "Elder Bolin, I'm not sure I understand..."

"This boy," Elder Bolin said while pointing directly at Kano. "I will teach him personally. I will bring him up to speed with Dwarven culture and history, and handle his core studies."
