I suppose we are. I never chose to be a blacksmith, I was born into it, as is the way of our people. But I do love the heat, the clinking of metal. I have started a forge with my brother here, actually.
It can be, from time to time. But my kind are a resourceful lot. I can often find ways to make what is needed. Can you tell me what you are interested in?
A-- [It occurs to him that Fili, being apparently from another world, may not be familiar with the word tomahawk, so he substitutes.] A hatchet. Light enough to be thrown, but heavy enough to be useful in hand, as well. It would be for a young woman, something suitable for her to continue to use as she grows.
[There are a lot of possible answers to this, ranging from political to personal, but the one that is most likely easiest for Fili to pronounce is:] I am of the Mohawk people.

[Processing, please wait.]
Is it difficult to obtain materials? It seems as though a number of things are in short supply.

Date: 2014-01-02 05:14 am (UTC)Aye, I can do that! I wear four throwing axes in my boots, ones I made myself. So to make something in the same manner would be easy enough.
