The Fledgling Blacksmith
Vulcan'Ello? Bless my bellows, it's been ages since I've
seen any new faces down here in the ol' forge.VulcanName's Vulcan. Blacksmith and Blacksmith Master.VulcanWe be forgin' just about everything here. Weapons,
quality armor, and even tools from time t' time.VulcanBut ye can't forge so much as a fork without proper
materials, eh,VulcanOnce ye've got ore, it's just a matter o' temperin' it
into a finely crafted item, eh? BAM! Eh? CLANG!VulcanThat's about the gist of it. What do ye think? Sounds
like a clangin' good time, eh?VulcanYe want ta make a weapon? Ye want ta make
some armor?VulcanHAMMER UP! HAMMER DOWN! CLANG! BANG!
BOOM!FyraSheesh! You are aware that being loud doesn't make
you a Master, right?FyraI know this isn't a library, but you should try turning it
down a few notches!FyraDo you want to be known for the quality of your work
or the volume of your voice?VulcanHAMMER UP! HAMMER DOWN! Just like the
Legendary Ironsmith!VulcanCLANG! BANG! BAM! CLANG! BANG! BAM!VulcanYeah! Channel that inner fire inta yer work! It's spirit
that makes a smith a Master!VulcanCourse, all spirit and no ore don't work too well...VulcanHere ye go,VulcanWith that hammer, ye can CLANG a piece o' ore into
a useful ingot.VulcanBut don't ye worry. We'll kick off yer trainin' with a
beginner's exercise.VulcanIt's natural to be a little nervous. But I ain't expectin'
much, so relax.VulcanFyra will fill ye in on the specifics.VulcanFYRA!! DID YE HEAR WHA' I SAID?!★ Next Location:

FyraDon't mind Pops. He's just excited about smithing.
He's passionate but...unrefined. And way too loud.FyraWe should teach beginners how to forge earplugs...FyraI'm Fyra, by the way. Umm... And you're...?Fyra[Name 1], huh? Nice to meetcha, hammerFyraI can't believe he just gives you a hammer and
expects you to make an ingot...FyraI swear, if we could harness all that wind, we could
keep the forge fired up for a hundred years...FyraOh, brother. Again with the air forging. Try hitting
some metal for once, Pops!VulcanHAMMER UP! HAMMER DOWN! Just like the
Legendary Ironsmith!VulcanBOOM! BANG! CLANG! BOOM! BANG! CLANG!FyraHe gets like this when he's really, really happy
about something.FyraDon't tell him I told you this, but I think he's pumped
about having a new pupil. It's been a while...FyraHey, Pops! Save some gusto for after the tutorial!VulcanAye, aye... Just hurry it up over there, lass!FyraYeah, yeah. I hear you...FyraAll right, [Name 1]! This here is a recipe for a
Bronze Ingot.FyraThink of an ingot as ore that's ready to be turned
into something.FyraWe in the smithing biz like to call ingots the metallic
building blocks of...stuff.FyraIf you ever need Castele Copper to make ingots, I'm
pretty sure you can buy some in town.FyraIt might not hurt to pay the Miners a visit too. They
can give you the lowdown on finding ore.FyraThat reminds me—I was supposed to talk to Daniel
down at the mines about something important...FyraBut I'm sorta stuck keeping an eye on
Boss Bellows-a-Lot here...FyraYou should go check in with him. You'll find him
down in East Castele, near the mines.★ Next Location:

DanielHmm? You need something?DanielHey, wait a minute. Might you be...the
Legendary Ironsmith?!DanielHa ha ha! I'm just messin' around. The Legendary
Ironsmith is only an old myth.DanielI've seen you runnin' around Castele. You're
Vulcan's new pupil, ain't ya?DanielDidn't think anyone would willingly become his pupil.
I mean, he can scare the heat outta the embers, eh?DanielI dunno who's worse, Vulcan or Duglas...???HEEEEEY!Daniel...?!DuglasHavin' a chat, eh, Danny boy? What'd you just say
'bout me?DuglasVulcan and me are WHAT now?DanielWe were, uh...talking about how scary...errr...how
scary POPULAR you two are!DuglasIs that so? Well then, I gotta say that's one rock-solid
topic of conversation!DanielAh ha ha...ha. Whew... That was too close.DanielBut seriously, Duglas and Vulcan are a mean team.
There's a reason we call 'em the Terrible Twosome.DanielDuglas mines the ore, and Vulcan tempers it. And
we all get some wonderful weapons out of the deal.DanielWonderful weapons, armor, and tools, I should say!
...Anyway, what brings ya here?DanielWait a sec... I know what you need. You need some
ore for makin' ingots, right?DanielThat sounds just like Vulcan... Always waitin' until
he runs out to order more.DanielNo worries, though! It's fine! Any 'sistant of
Vulcan's is a 'sistant of ours. Kinda...DanielWait a sec... Don't you already have some ore?
*sniff sniff* You do! I can smell it on you right now!DanielAww, it's all right. I think we can spare ya a
few extra.DanielIf ya ever need any more ore, there's plenty
around here.DanielNice chattin' with ya, ya ol' Legendary Ironsmith!
Ha ha! Tell Vulcan I said, "HAMMER UP!"★ Next Location:

FyraWelcome back, [Player]! Mission accomplished,
I see!FyraHmm... Let me think...FyraOK, yeah! We can make that ingot now!FyraSo first we've got to melt down the ore. That'll get
rid of the impurities.FyraThe ore is then flexible enough to mold. We call this
process smelting.FyraWith enough skill, you can make some serious
quality stuff.FyraNow...let me show you some basic
Smithing techniques!FyraYou can go ahead and use the forging area to make
the ingot.FyraRemember to equip your hammer!★ Next Location:
Royal Castele Workshop
FyraYou did it! I gotta say, your workbench presence is
impressive. You made a lot of Blacksmith noises!FyraPretty good work for a first try too! Although Pops'll
probably call it so-so.FyraBut don't sweat it. So-so is about as good as his
compliments get.FyraHe's got a weird way of expressing himself, and he's
kind of a smithing perfectionist.FyraAnyhow, that's how you make an ingot.FyraIf you make a bunch and sell 'em, you'll earn
some Dosh.FyraThen again, if you use ingots to make more-complex
items, you'll make some serious Dosh.FyraBut, hey. You're your own Blacksmith now. Sell what
you wanna sell, keep what you wanna keep.FyraEr, except for that ingot! Don't sell it! Show it
to Pops!★ Next Location:

VulcanHo ho! Finished? Let's have a look.VulcanEh... It's so-so.FyraWoo-hoo! You did it, [Player]!VulcanDidna ye hear me say it was so-so?! What in Reveria
are ye so happy about?!VulcanThat was but a wee ingot. The most basic of
smithy...basics.FyraUh, well, yeah...VulcanThere be three kinds o' smithin'. Weapons, armor,
and tools. I'll show ye how to forge those.VulcanYer here, so I'm guessin' ye think ye have the inner
fire needed fer blacksmithin'.VulcanWell, it ain't overly complicated. Even Fyra got it
right the first time.VulcanHa ha ha!FyraArgh! Seriously, Pops?VulcanWhat was that, Fyra?FyraI said...I seriously can't wait for your next lesson,
dear Father.VulcanAye, of course ye did. Now...shall we start with
weapons? Armor?VulcanWeapons? Nope, nope... Armor first. Definitely
armor. Or weapons...FyraUhh... Pops?VulcanWhat do ye think, lass? Weapons? Armor?FyraOh, boy. Pops is never gonna decide on your
training at this rate.VulcanWeapons! No, armor!FyraHey, Pops. I, uhh...just remembered something.FyraWeren't you supposed to help out Magmia with
something today?Vulcan...Ohmydosh!VulcanBlazing blazes! I completely forgot...VulcanMagmia asked us for a favor... Said she needed
something special made.VulcanI promised to help the lass, but Fyra and I are up to
our necks in customer orders.FyraSay, Pops...can you think of anyone standing right
here who might have plenty of free time to help?VulcanOOOH! Aye! I know! I know! It be [Player], right?VulcanCan ye lend a hand? All ye have to do is head to
Magmia's house and tell her we can't help her.FyraHuh? What? Can't help her?VulcanWell...VulcanIf yer feeling up to it, ye could take on her
request yerself.VulcanIf ye can handle it, we'll call yer Fledglin' trainin' over
an' done with.FyraWhoa!FyraI've never seen him do this before, [Player]. This
is quite an opportunity here.FyraThe client's a lady named Magmia. If you help her,
Pops'll fast-track your training!FyraOne thing—watch out for Magmia's grandpa.
Ol' Steele is stubborn as...steel.FyraBut we've got faith in you, [Player]! Ain't that
right, Pops?VulcanWell, faith or no, ya just need to get over there.
The sooner the better!VulcanLast thing we need is fer ol' Steele ta blow his top.

SteeleEh? Who are ya? Whaddya want?!MagmiaGrandpa! Stop! Don't be rude!MagmiaI'm very sorry about that. He does that to everyone.MagmiaOh! You must be Vulcan's new student.MagmiaThank goodness you're here. This must mean
Vulcan remembered his promise.MagmiaWe hadn't heard from him in quite some time.
I'd almost given up hope that anyone would come.MagmiaSay, Grandpa...aren't you about ready for your nap?SteeleWhat are you sayin', girl?! Ain't even close to
being tired!SteeleI got enough fire in my furnace to forge a whole
armory's worth of weapons!MagmiaOh my. Well, maybe some introductions then. Um, I'm
Magmia, and this is my grandfather, Steele.SteeleHmph!MagmiaNow...the reason you're here...MagmiaMy older brother, Ignatius, has been a member of
the Paladin order for 100 days as of...today.MagmiaThe poor dear has had to endure such strict
training, so we... I wanted to send him a present.MagmiaSpecifically, a custom-made sword from Vulcan!MagmiaSadly, Grandpa was quite opposed to sending him
any sort of present.MagmiaBut I think he'd change his tune if he saw the finished
product. Do you think you can help me out?SteeleHey! You with the face! Don't bother with this job!SteeleI'll never forgive that boy for just up and leaving!SteeleHe was supposed to inherit the forge, not become
some goody-goody wearin' a tin can!SteeleI have no idea where that boy gets his stubborn
streak. I completely disagree with his decisions!MagmiaBut, Grandpa! We should show him how proud we
are of him! He's stuck with it for 100 days!SteeleHa! Big deal! I worked my beard off for a gazillion
days as a Blacksmith!SteeleThe boy abandoned his responsibility and ran off to
the castle! Clear as day!SteeleAnd you! How many days have you been
a Blacksmith?Steele'Cause you seem like you're brand new at this! Bah!
You're a slacker, too! You're just like my grandson!MagmiaGrandpa!SteeleI can't disown this one, but I can sure as heck
disown Mr. 100 Days!MagmiaNow that's going too far!MagmiaThat's not the Grandpa I know and love.SteeleIs that so?!SteeleThen have your stupid sword made. It's obviously
more important to you than I am!SteeleI've had it with you kids!SteeleI'm outta here! If anyone needs me, I'll be
at Harmony's!MagmiaOh, Grandpa...MagmiaListen... I'm really sorry you had to see that.MagmiaHe gets really upset whenever the topic of my
brother comes up.MagmiaAnyway...here are some instructions for the sword
I'd like you to work on.MagmiaI was really hoping to have it crafted with Grandpa's
blessing. But I guess it's not meant to be.MagmiaPutting all that family drama aside, do you think you
can help?MagmiaIt's not just any ordinary recipe, so I should go with
you and help find the materials.MagmiaAs an up-and-coming Blacksmith, you should
probably get to know some shopkeepers.MagmiaHow 'bout we check out some material
shops, [Name 4]?★ Next Location:

MagmiaHuh? Iggy?!IgnatiusHey, Sis! Thought I heard you in there.IgnatiusI was about to knock, and then Grandpa burst
through the door and ran past me.IgnatiusI hadn't seen him since I started Paladin training
100 days ago... He looked pretty flustered.IgnatiusI figured he'd be at the Crown. I really wasn't
expecting to run into him here.MagmiaHe's heading there now. Normally he wouldn't be
here at this time of day, but...Magmiawe were arguing about you.IgnatiusOh. I see... Sorry, Sis.MagmiaOh! Have you met [Name 2]?IgnatiusReally? So then are you...Grandpa's pupil?MagmiaNo, no. Nothing like that.IgnatiusOh, I'm not jealous or anything. In fact, I'd be happy
if Grandpa found himself a new student.IgnatiusHe hasn't taken on a new pupil in a while. And it's all
because I ran off to be a Paladin...MagmiaWell, at least he has me to gripe to.MagmiaSo are you on duty right now?IgnatiusOh, no, no.IgnatiusI was just coming to drop off a letter I wrote
to Grandpa.MagmiaOh! Did you give it to him just now as he was
running out of here?IgnatiusEr, no... I tried to give it to him, but he just wouldn't
take it. And he moves fast for an old guy!IgnatiusI guess I'll try to get it to him later.MagmiaHuh. A letter. Seems like a great idea!IgnatiusI dunno. He's pretty steamed.IgnatiusI doubt he'll ever read it...IgnatiusWhoa! Look at the time!IgnatiusIf I'm late getting back to my post, Captain Mustang
is gonna have my head!IgnatiusSee you later, Sis!MagmiaHey! Iggy! CONGRATULAAAAATIONS!MagmiaWow. I'm so sorry you got dragged into our
family squabble.MagmiaI know Iggy might look tough...Magmiabut I think this hostility from Grandpa really gets
to him.MagmiaThat's why I thought maybe a nice, new sword would
really cheer him up.MagmiaHe's always complaining about how heavy his
standard-issue sword is.MagmiaBut I remembered some plans for a special sword
that would be perfect for Iggy!MagmiaActually, it's one of Grandpa's special-recipe items.MagmiaIt's an unusually light, strong sword. Quite the feat of
weapon smithing!MagmiaGrandpa says the Ironsmith himself gave him
the recipe.MagmiaI just have to have it made. So let's hurry to

gift, and I need some materials.MagmiaDo you have any high-quality ingots?Terra Nimbus PlushlingsOf course, of course! Let me just take a look at
your recipe...Terra Nimbus PlushlingsHmm. Calls for Red Ingots. Never heard of 'em.MagmiaReally?Terra Nimbus PlushlingsHuh? There's something scribbled in the
margin here.Terra Nimbus PlushlingsIt doesn't really make any sense, though...MagmiaOh, yes. I noticed that too.Terra Nimbus Plushlings"A Red Ingot is just a Bronze Ingot with a
temperament adjustment."Magmia...A temperament adjustment?Terra Nimbus PlushlingsI don't get it. But it sounds super important. Might
as well take some Bronze Ingots for starters.Terra Nimbus PlushlingsWell, I'll be! It looks like you've already got the
ingredients on you!Terra Nimbus PlushlingsIf it helps ol' Steele's granddaughter, I can part with
a few Bronze Ingots. The rest is up to you, though!MagmiaThank you very much! Umm...how much is that?Terra Nimbus PlushlingsI couldn't possibly accept anything! I'm just happy to
help ol' Steele's granddaughter.Terra Nimbus PlushlingsJust make sure your Blacksmith pal there makes meMagmiaMy... That's very sweet of you.Terra Nimbus PlushlingsWell, I have a feeling the young Blacksmith here is

I hope he's OK.MagmiaAnd we really need to ask him about the Red Ingots.RuffianEh? What gives?RuffianWhere's this heat coming from?! I fink it's
gettin' closer!???A fine blade...???A fine blade burns with power even away from

A legend ain't defined by his age, y'know!Ironsmith*ahem* I sense that you both seek the knowledge to
create Red Ingots.MagmiaY-yes, that's right...IronsmithI can give you that knowledge. However, it will take
about a year to master.IronsmithYou two are in a rush, are you not?MagmiaYes, we are. We need a gift for my brother. It's his
100th day as a Paladin, you see.IronsmithHmm... In truth, I possess a faster method of creating
Red Ingots.IronsmithHand me those ingots you have in your Bag there.IronsmithHmm, yes... Good thickness.Ironsmith...You don't have any? Why in the blazes not?IronsmithNo matter. I usually keep some on me.IronsmithIt's on the house. I'm feelin' generous.IronsmithNow watch out. You're about to see a legendary

legendary hammer and the real, legendary beard.RuffianSay...do you guys get the feeling there's more to
that legendary old guy than meets the eye?MagmiaHold on a sec... This letter... It's Ignatius's letter...
to Grandpa...MagmiaWhy in the world would the Legendary Ironsmith have
Iggy's letter to Grandpa?Magmia...Is no doubt what you're thinking, [Player].MagmiaI think we kinda need to read it. You know...for
investigative purposes. Here goes.Magmia"Dear Grandpa,MagmiaI'm really sorry about not becoming a Blacksmith like
you wanted me to.MagmiaI know we're not on good terms, but I can't help
thinking about all the things you've taught me.MagmiaYou once told me, 'Fear leads to failure.'MagmiaTo be honest, not a day goes by when I'm not
thinking of some of the ways I might fail.MagmiaBut when I consider how strong and committed you
are to your work and family, I'm able to keep going.MagmiaBut when I consider how strong and committed you
are to your work and family, I'm able to keep going.MagmiaI know you're really angry that I quit right in the
middle of my Blacksmith training.MagmiaI'm sorry, Grandpa. I'm kind of shocked about it
myself, but it was something I felt I had to do.MagmiaI'm a Paladin now, and I'm going to do this job the
way you would do it—by giving it all I've got!MagmiaI won't stop at 100 days! I'll keep at it for a gazillion
days and beyond!MagmiaI see how much you've achieved as a Blacksmith.
And I want to do the same for myself as a Paladin.MagmiaThese are my honest feelings, Grandpa. I hope you
can forgive me.MagmiaAnd I do hope you read this letter.
￤MagmiaSomehow Iggy must have gotten his letter into
Grandpa's hands. Grandpa must have read it...Magmiaand had a change of heart. But he's so stubborn,
he couldn't just admit he was wrong.MagmiaThat's why he dressed up like... No. Never mind.RuffianI am so confused right now.MagmiaAnyway, looks like you've got some work to do!
You should head back to Vulcan's workshop.MagmiaI don't want to get in the way, so I'll be waiting back

The family reputation rests on it!MagmiaI think that's about as cooperative as he's going

failure. Remember that.SteeleYou've still got a long way to go, but I like the swing
of your hammer, kid.SteeleStill, you can't just make weapons all day. Lemme

going to be so happy!MagmiaOh! Before I forget...here's your payment!MagmiaI'm off to the castle to give Iggy his present. He'll
