Codex[]

I must confess responsibility to the dreki that roam Svartalfheim. Odin ordered me to disrupt Svartalfheim's natural ecosystem in an effort to push the dwarves towards industrialization. I knew these apex predators, a variant of Dragon native to Vanaheim, would wreak havoc on the Dwarvish ecosystem. What I did not know is just how effective they would be—the complete extinction of several native species, and an imbalance that will take lifetimes to undo. Consider this as a written confession, and a pledge to do everything in my limited power to set things right.
