He is wearing fine clothes, but he is filthy because he has been traveling for weeks without taking a bath or changing his clothes or eating well while trying to avoid being captured by the goblins again or attacked by wolves or other dangers along the way up here to this mountain pass which he was told is where he could find some work because there are always people up here who need help with something or other but he wasn’t expecting it to be so cold up here or so hard to find work or so hard to find food or so hard to find a bath or so hard to find anything he can use or sell because everyone is so poor and he’s only got a tiny bit of gold left now and it’s almost gone and he doesn’t know what he’s going to do anymore because he really needs help but he knows that no one will help him because no one trusts a filthy dwarf with no money or food or anything left anymore but he just wants someone to help him but no one ever does…
