23 of winter, 510 AV To Lorcan this was just another day, the forge was burning red hot, the banging of hammers was all around. Sounding like an orchestra of pure perfection in Lorcan’s ears he enjoyed every second of being there and being part of it. He himself was working on a lock he’d been tinkering with for a few days now. Lately he felt like all he did was construct locks out of tiny pieces of metal. Trying to get the intricate pieces in shape let alone all fit together was a tedious job, so he could only really do the simplest designs. Right now he was busy punching a hole in a small plate of metal, this was going to be one of the three tumblers he was going to make for this one, it was going to be a very, very simplistic version, but it would keep the new owners belonging’s safe, from complete idiots… maybe. Once he felt the shape of the tumbler was fine he wiped the sweat from his brow and looked around to see how the others were doing. Isen was creating a masterpiece as usual, or well so it seemed to Lorcan, he pretty much adored anything Isen produced. Even though he didn’t like Isen himself all that much, because he was such a hard ass. As for the isur brothers running the place, they were imparting their latest work, a skill Lorcan wanted to learn so badly but because he was still a lowly apprentice the isur brother’s didn’t really bother with talking to him. A fact he didn’t like all that much.. He hated it actually. In any case, things in the smithy weren’t as busy as usual, people were just doing their thing in a slow kind of way, sure it was still rather hectic, but this was something Lorcan had gotten used to over the past few years. So to him the place seemed quiet, till the door of the smithy opened, letting a lot of light and fresh air into the place. Lorcan looked at the person in the door and squinted his eyes, unable to see who it was. |
