Since his visit to the Armada to commission his piece de resistance of the completed Hearthstone, Artorias had been anxiously awaiting the delivery of the finished product like an overeager child waiting at the mailbox for a package. So when Ruga’s call came out to him from the border one autumn day, it was all the Aegis could do to keep from bounding out of the castle to greet the Armadan craftsman. Seeing the large carts being hauled by oxen its tarp coverings almost made him bark with glee like a happy puppy. He happily welcomed Riga and Keahi into the Hallows while he helped to unload the carts of their wares, stunned and impressed at the sheer size of the table the artisan had crafted for him. The table was huge! It took a couple of trips for the two dire wolves to haul the pieces of the table through the corridors to the Council Chambers, but once they had everything in place, the building process could begin.
Artorias was more than happy to offer Ruga a paw getting his table set up. "Of course! Thank you so much for putting so much care into getting it here!" Hefting the large stone slabs that made up the top of the table and setting them onto the bulky hardwood legs, Artorias marveled at the sight before him. The dark stone tabletop was intricately carved to look exactly like a detailed topographical map of Boreas and Auster, even better than he had imagined it. Ruga had spared no expense making this masterpiece of craftsmanship for him! Once the table was assembled in its permanent home, the azure brute slowly circled it, marveling at its detail and beauty as he ran a paw along the smooth edges of the black stone. "I’m glad as well, for your sanity if nothing else. Everything looks amazing, Ruga! Thank you for your impeccable work." Peering closer down at the detail in the dark stone, Artorias realized his one great concern was indeed going to be a problem he'd need to address somehow. "Ah, I was right about the stone being difficult to see some of the finer details. I'll have to find a way to work around that."
