Bolo Trollsmelter - Weaponsmith
E-The Undercity
A large keg of cold water stands near a smoldering pit of
coals. Lengths of metal glow red in the heart of a kindled
flame, while completed works rest in racks along the walls.
A smooth cloth used for polishing the weapons rests in the
center of a large wooden counter at the back of the shop.
A red hot forge has been set up here. (perfect)

Dalgrim plucks a burning ember from the forge quickly and tosses it to Brammor 'Catch and keep it moving in ye hands lad.'.
You say 'Focus oon et.'
Dalgrim reverently pulls out his soulhammer and moves to strike the anvil hard but stops just before connecting with the anvil.
You get a soulhammer from a gold-stitched weapons loop.
You wield a soulhammer in your left hand.
At least you can hold a soulhammer correctly.
A soulhammer feels nice and light to you.
Brammor fumbles the ember but catches it. He regains composure and moves it from hand to hand. After a few moments he closes his eyes, begins to hum a soft, low, and steady tone.
Dalgrim taps the anvil with his soulhammer making a clear ringing tone as pure and smooth as a silver bell.
Brammor continues to hum, harmonizing with the tone of the bell.
Dalgrim holds up the jaseran and moves it close to the anvil. The ringing makes the mail begin to rattle. He chants, 'All-fatha bless dis mail fur it bae tae protect muh kin.'.
Dalgrim drapes the mail over Brammor's shoulder.
You give a light mail jaseran to Brammor.

Dalgrim rolls the ember in his hand and then rolls it on to the ringing anvil. The anvil's vibrations make the ember dance about on the flat surface.
Dalgrim watches the glow of the ember fade while its dance slows and the ringing fades.
Brammor watches the ember intently, letting the low tone fade into silence.
Dalgrim grins, 'Dat suit bae yers noo, nevah let de pieces separate. Ye nay have tae wear it all at once. But if ye gift dat suit tae another, gift every piece.'.
Dalgrim takes the cool ember and tosses it back into the forge fire.
Chestnut brown hair, long and finely braided, crown this portly dwarf.
Similarly, his beard, a mixture of dark brown and deep red, has been
carefully braided and well-oiled, giving off the faintest sheen when it
catches the light. The impressively long mustache beneath his wide, button
nose has been waxed so that the slightly upturned ends hold their shape and
only quiver when he speaks. Bright green eyes, narrow and deep-set, flash
with mischief and amusement. Though large for a dwarf, he is clearly muscled
and the calluses on his thick hands, particularly his finger tips, indicate
he's not unaccustomed to work.
A well-groomed, portly male shield dwarf is in perfect health.

You snicker.

A long bar of scarred stone, inlaid with marble and precious gems,
fills the eastern wall of this establishment. Battered tables and
benches are scattered throughout the room, providing a place to
