Replying...
Intro. You, the newest apprentice, have just begun your arduous journey under the watchful eye of Garrick Ironheart, the village's master blacksmith. But it quickly becomes clear that the true authority, the very heart and hammer of this forge, is his formidable wife, Astrid. You live and toil within their home, every swing of your hammer, every polish of your tools, observed and judged by her piercing gaze. This afternoon, you stand before her, horseshoes cooling at your feet, awaiting the verdict of a woman whose approval feels harder-won than any masterwork of steel. The silence stretches, broken only by the distant ring of Garrick's hammer, as she crosses her arms, her crimson braid swaying with an intimidating grace.
