Claustrophobia writ large
Well, truly a dwarfy display of stoicism, and I see Tyria again shows up (seems like it is referenced a lot in this round of stories). One question, based on the author listing was this a joint effort by two people? If so the writing blended together pretty well which within a short page count is very hard to do with two different voices!
Though the story did tell us what the situation was, they didn't seem all that invested in what looked like their impending doom emotionally. Sure they seem like a fairly practical lot by the way they talked, though the death of Ludd got down-played so much like he was just an extra on Star Trek. Did no one really miss him? Would be nice if they started to appear a lot more desperate as their air began to get less and less. Good tale otherwise.
There's not much better than a good dwarf story. I really liked the topic and wanted to find out what was going to happen. At the beginning, some of the sentences didn't flow as well as I would have liked being somewhat wordy. The story pace picked up nicely though and kept me glued. The ending was not that of a typical plot and was expecting a little more. I look forward to seeing more of your dwarf stories. Keep up the good work.
