Master Of None

Walker knew that the quests had a chance to show up if he ushed a little and supported what they wanted to make. He also knew that it wasn’t the fact that the elder had not wanted to make a core for the golem. Instead, it was the fact that the elder had known it would not work. The thing was, if it would not work, then why would the world give them a quest? This was a huge reason that they should persevere and create a core. 

”Alright, I will need the core, the pure ash, five fire elemental mana crystals, and I think the fire stalk will be best.” 

”Fire stalk? Why would you waste time with that? Just use the ember seeds instead. They grow in to the same plant and are more potent.” The elder and Grey immediately started to argue about materials. The only positive fact was that the materials were all spread out outside and they rushed that way to show each other the best ones. 

Walker was curious to see what all the materials would be to modify a core when he noticed that Gil was sitting there a little annoyed. ”Sorry, I knew they would get distracted but I feel like fighting the way they progress would just slow things down.” Walker was apologetic since he saw that Gil was very dedicated to finish the bow. 

”I know. Dwarves have some issues with what they want to make and bows aren’t really their thing. But it is important that we continue on. So let’s get this core out of the way so we can focus on the bow.” Gil wanted the full focus on the bow and not just the distracted work fast to finish mentality. One mistake could prove the end for the spirit inside.

Walker saw Gil pick up the ow and take a seat. Su decided to go over and show him the earth dwelling shield to explain a little more what the dwelling weapons were like. This seemed to cheer Gil up a little bit since he hoped the bow would be the same and the spirit would be free. 

Looking around the room, Walker realized he had lost where Midnight and Onyx had gone until his eyes fell on the forge. The two were curled up next to the furnace asleep. Onyx was definitely asleep but surprisingly Midnight was still awake keeping an eye out. Walker had the feeling that she was just waiting for the chance to help with the forging process. It made him wonder what she had to show off. 

Following the elder and Grey, he found that they were already setting up materials. ”How about flint? It has the fire elemental mana and extremely tiny fire elemental crystals which make the sparks. It could add the ability to start a flame then work with the fire elemental crystals I will add to breathe fire?.” Grey’s proposition seemed to be accepted as the elder discarded another material and lifted it. 

”You think we should use the glow stone? That had light elemental mana though. It won’t interfere with the fire elemental mana but it wouldn’t be helping.” Grey had no idea why this was a suggested item to use. 

”Glow stone should help the golem absorb more elemental mana to fuel itself. A lot of the world’s fire elemental mana is close to light elemental mana. It will just speed up recovery if the right runes are used.” The look of understanding in Greys’ eyes was all that the elder needed to see. 

”Can you use anything else?” Walker was using his all around appraisal skill as much as possible among the fire elemental materials. He finally rested eyes on one that he thought would be good to use. 

’Flame light Silver

This used to be normal silver until it came uncovered by the shifting of the earth. The lava flames that moved around it constantly added small amounts of light and high amounts of fire elemental mana to the silver. After some time the mana became stored within it. This is ideal for crafting dual elemental items with a string fire elemental orientation and a weak light elemental orientation.’

”We need a material to house the core. The core will just be the base for some condensed rune carving.” The elder was sifting through the materials as well when he saw Walkers’ hand reach out and grab the material.

”How about the flame light silver? It has light and fire elemental affinity and should work perfectly.” Grey snatched it and held it in the light. He could still see the flames dancing across it even though there were none to be reflected. 

”Ha! Perfect. We both ignored it as regular silver because the light wasn’t showing us the truth. Good eye. Are you sure you aren’t a forge master in hiding?” The joke was small but they all laughed anyways as they hustled back in to the forge. 

”I will grab the mold so we can start the process. You can carve the condensed runes on the core before we add the casing.” The elder was in motion and so was Grey. The party all perked up to watch what they were doing. 

”Don’t just stand there. You have magic right? I want you to stoke up that forge fire with your magic so I can have a stronger flame elemental mana. Ask that spirit for help too!” The elder yelled and the fire elemental spirit was already next to the forge. It was not being left out either. 

After seeing the spirit joining in, Midnight decided it wasn’t the right time to show off her new skill and fire. She would wait to help Gil to modify his bow. 

”Hot. we will make it hot!” The fire elemental spirit had absorbed a considerable amount of fire elemental mana. This was good because it was starting to bring it out to help Walker make flames. The forge would soon be stocked hotter than ever.
