Thanks for pointing out the technical stuff there, I'll keep that in mind in the next chapter.

As for the background stuff on my character and all that. Don't worry those issues are the main focus of the next chapter. Along with bringing in everyone's favorite outcast in as a main character.

Just one question: Did Durin come across as a bit of an aloof jerk? I really wanted that to get though because that's one of his major character flaws.
