A tunnel sweeper lives in the town of Zul Logoth.

Description

The dwarven tunnel sweeper is dressed in white trousers, a long-sleeved white shirt, and dark brown, thick-soled boots.  A silver pick-and-shovel insignia adorns the right breast of his shirt.  His short-cropped brown beard and long brown hair match the color of his eyes perfectly.  A large, partially filled sack dangles from his leather belt, and he carries a corn broom and a short-handled dustpan.  The corn broom's handle is long and sturdy, and it could even double for a quarterstaff if need be.

Questions

>ask sweeper about tunnel

The tunnel sweeper nods to you and says, "I keep the tunnels clean best I can. If you find any bad patches of dirt, just let me know, alright?"

>ask sweeper about salt

The tunnel sweeper exclaims, "Sheesh! Salt pours out from under the door of the salt works constantly. It's a wonder the snail doesn't shrivel up when it passes through there."

>ask sweeper about snail

The tunnel sweeper grimaces and says, "A lot of people really like that snail. Personally, I can't stand it. The slime trails it leaves make the dirt and dust stick to the floors. I gotta scrape 'em up instead of just sweeping 'em up!"

The tunnel sweeper shakes his head and says, "I wouldn't know. Not all of us dwarves are miners, you know."
