《I am Urist》Day 11 - Part 1 - Unicy's Death Threat

“Hey *$%(#.” In the haze, a familiar voice rang out to the floating Urist.
“What?” Confused Urist called out looking around trying to find the source only to see static and black clouds around him.
“Don’t forget about us ok?”
“What are you talking about?”
“You must…” Before the voice could finish the static and clouds scattered from the sharp pain to his head.
Waking up from the dream Urist rubbed his eyes and sat up. He found out why his head had a dull pain seeing that Yri had elbowed him in the face.
This cave entrance is getting too crowded for my taste. It was fine when we only have ten but with the new migrants, we’ll need to expand soon.
I hope today we get a miner so I don’t have to spend points, just in case we need it for other things. Heading to the back of the cave Urist yawned and slapped his face, it was time to greet the new dwarfs.
Walking to the back of the cave four dwarfs sat around, drinking water and eating some dried fish. Urist had these placed here since the dwarfs that came before told him they were quite hungry and thirsty coming out.
Weird this time they are not standing like dolls. No one came to greet them. Was it because of the food and water this time? I mean they are still silent and not talking. Their gaze is expressionless so they must still be in a daze like the ones that came before them. Tomorrow I’ll take away the food and water and see how they react for now let’s see what they can do.
Finishing his assessment Urist walked into the room and greeted the dwarfs. He watched intently as the haze in their eyes disappeared and their eyes began shining. They all stood up and began to ask him the usual questions to which he responded one by one. When all the questions and introductions were out of the way. Urist explained to the dwarfs that this was their new home for the foreseeable future.

Tänzer the Dancer, Roche the Miner, Saera the Carpenter, and Unicy the Huntress. Going to the armament stone Urist was curious about what skills the dwarfs had. First, the male dancer Tänzer was a pretty boy with a beauty mark under his eye. He had short flaming red hair and deep ocean colored eyes, he was also the tallest dwarf in the group standing at 5ft. 2in.
Urist didn’t know how to feel about a man that looked like a girl dancing. He wasn’t into that sort of play and read over his skills. As a dancer, he had a slot alignment of 1: H 3: B 3: L and his personality was carefree or for a better term an airhead.
Still, he was quite interested in the dancer's skills which had Leg strengthening, Body charm, Quick movement, and Dance were some of the more special skills. Urist wondered what leg strengthening would do so he asked Tänzer to equip it and show what he could later after integrating the skill.
Moving onto Roche who was a miner that Urist was quite happy to receive with his help they could expand the tunnels. Checking his skills out Urist found that he had a 3: H 3: B 1: L skill set and he had a stoic personality that didn’t say many words.
His personality matched his looks being short and heavy built with black hair and gruff bread. His eyes were a deep black and his face was quite average.
He job skills were Ore Sight, Danger Sight, Night Vision, Stamina Increase, and Oxygen Store. Just reading the skills definitions were something to behold making Urist grab Roche's shoulders.
"We will be counting on you, Roche."
"Eh? Ah. Yes, Boss, I wish not to disappoint."
Moving over to Saera, Urist noticed that she had the same slot alignment as Roche. Unlike Roche though she was built quite well and wasn't a heavy figure. She had a tan going on and her hair was like seaweed black as night and her eyes were a blue color. She had an above-average face and seemed her hands were itching to get to work.

The skills she had was thus; Design Sight, Material Sight, Nimble Hands, and Steady Hands. Reading over the abilities Design sight could project a 3D image in the person's mind to see the finished product.
The material sight could check the grade of the material, Nimble and Steady hands helped her to craft objects. Reading over her skills she would work perfectly together with Roche to help plan the caves expansion.
"We will also be counting on Saera!"
"Understood Boss! But... What is our work you need us to do?"
Unlike Roche, Saera got straight to the problem to which Urist smiled and replied.
"Our home needs expansion! I hope you two can work together and make the expansion safe!"
Now understanding the job the dwarfs were at ease and nodded their heads.
"Understood Boss!"
With that dealt, Urist turned to the final dwarf Unicy the huntress. As the name implies she was a dwarf with the hunter job, knowing how to hunt and set taps up and she had the tracking skill. Her skill slot even had one extra in the head.
Looking at her appearance she looked unlike the others as she wore fur clothing. She had a bow and quiver in hand she looked out of place in the cave.
She had two piercing eyes and having two swords like eyebrows. Her hair was long and brown, and despite her being shorter than him she felt a foot taller thanks to her aura.
She also has a noticeable scar running along the bridge of her nose align with her brown eyes. This was the first time Urist noticed that a Dwarf appeared with a scar on their face which threw him off.
Of the four she was the most silent and only said her name, job, skill slots, and skills. Besides that, she was studying Urist with curiosity as if she wanted to say something.
Seeing this Urist figured she wanted to talk alone and sent the other three dwarfs ahead to rest as the skills entered their bodies. Now that it was just him and Unicy alone Urist felt it was right to ask now.
"What is wrong Unicy?"
"Why am I alive? Where am I? Who are you? And why do I have the urge to call you boss? Speak or I shall kill you."
Such a question confused Urist and he was even more shocked as the huntress pointed her bow at Urists head. The situation had turned into something unthinkable.
To be threatened in such a way made Urists eyes widen. He didn't expect to be in such a life and death scenario when he came to receive the new dwarfs.
His mind was racing at a million miles an hour thinking about this dwarf girl in front of him. Who was she? Why was she here? Why did she come with such hostility?
"If you don't speak I will kill you!"
