The Annoyed Blacksmith

event Forge (Castle Grounds) · Events (all zones)

You come across a blacksmith hammering away at an anvil. He pauses to glare at a bat circling above, muttering a curse under his breath. As you approach he eyes you warily and says: "The guards were sleeping again, weren't they? I should report you to the Count, but I'm too busy dealing with this flying menace while getting my work done. By the way, I'm a master at forging magical items. Here, take this platinum ring. But if you've got a rare material, I could craft you something even more impressive." Do you have something worth forging?
