While the Elves were used to being self sufficient, one did not grow a kingdom without commerce and trade, and of all of the races about the Spine of the World, the Dwarves were the most promising for profitable trade.  Despite his natural inclination against association with other races, Larrel's ambition to carve out another Cormanthor for the Tel’Quessir.  The alliance between the two nations greatly benefited both of them, and their notoriety and prosperity grew, and the new kingdom of Laranthor is poised to enter a golden age.<br/>
