Let Ern do her work

"My name is Rosa," you reply meekly as you step in front of the dwarf.

"Well hello Rosa, the name's Ern," she returns with a smile. She doesn't even wait for you to return the pleasantries, instead turning behind her and pulling out a thick metal rod. You notice a magical rune embossed into the end, which Ern holds out to your neck while she reaches for your collar with her free hand. The rod flashes a bright light the moment it touches your collar and instantly the metal splits cleanly in half. Ern catches one side in her free hand and lets the other drop harmlessly to your side with a loud thud. She quickly scoops up the second piece and tosses both of them into the corner, where you notice a small pile of miscellaneous scrap metal.

"She's all set, Mistress," Ern calls toward someone behind you. You turn around to see your mistress walking across the tent, making a beeline for the row of chests in the back.

"Thank you, Ern, you're very helpful as always." At the compliment, the dwarf sits back down on her stool and squirms. "Rosa, dear, come here please," your mistress then beckons as she stops in front of one of the chests, pulling a large ring of keys out of her coat to find the one that matches this lock.
