Bagpipes were a type of wind instrument that used a bag filled with the help of a mouthpiece to provide the necessary flow, while the sound came from the attached reed or reeds with different holes to vary the tone.[2][4] Dwarves held bagpipes in high regard.[5]
Mizwid[]
Mizwid
The Zakharan version of the bagpipes was called mizwid (meaning "food pouch" in Midani). It was played with a double-reeded flute attached to the wind bag with corresponding two rows of holes where the melody could be played, while it produced an underlying droning tone at the same time.[1]
