Public Agenda
Ruthar's clergy had an active role in guiding the morals of dwarven communities; they emphasized his hand in everyday dwarven activities such as mining, smithing, and engineering, and invoked his blessing when these tasks began. They led the push to found new dwarven kingdoms and increase their status among surface communities.
Worship
Clerics of Ruthar, known as sonnlinor (“those who work stope”) pray in the morning.
Every fall of the hammer on the anvil, every fire stoked in the forge, is a step on a journey set before me by Ruthar himself. It isn't work. It is a challenge to achieve greatness.
