Ren hardly batted an eye, his head tilting to scan the length of the fuller on the first, twisting and turning it to gauge the trueness of its edge. Returning it to the workbench with surprising care, given its intended purpose. Repeating the process with the second sword, he spent extra time examining the weight of the pommel. Something about the smirk upon his face signaled that something might be off. "Give me five minutes." True to his word, Ren returned almost immediately, face beaming with pride and gratitude that his instincts had proven right. "What can I say? I've be

"I can appreciate your desire for as much protection as possible," Ren offered to his latest, yet most notably nervous, customer. "My instincts went the same way, when I started out." A sooty thumb jerked over his shoulder to a set of purple armor in similar style and make to what Laika had requested. "Trust your instincts and keep a handy trinket around. Missing your attacks is more likely to get you killed than taking a few hits wearing this kind of shell." Hefting sword and shield over the counter, Ren nodded as the man's brow furrowed, wondering what happened to the shield.

The hamster wheel in his bleached brain has been spinning full out for far too long, but something struck Ren as odd at the funny hat's sudden return. Squinting through a mildly furrowed brow and struggling through system-reinforced sleep depravation, the smith stared at Oz wondering if he was really there, or if his nut had finally cracked and he'd fallen head first into his own furnace. "Weren't you just here asking to trade because you had no gleaming scales?" Blinks that should have set off more alarm bells failed to do so. He was simply too tired. "Right. Special things make... a

Ren blinks, furtively, not really having a clue what is meant to be happening when a noble-looking lady and her two attendants wander into his smithy. All are dressed for window shopping, rather than metal work. At least, once they begin placing items and materials on various work tables, supplemented by a vast store of materials and some basic written instructions, he finally manages to get their gist. "Oh, uh. Sure? Yeah. I can do this for you. Bear with me just a few moments." Returning minutes later with the work already done, the weapon is ready to be claimed, and protests o

Wandering over to examine the provided items more closely, Ren wiped dripping sweat from his brow to replace it with a greyish sooty smear. "Hrm. That all sounds right and reasonable, though it isn't often I see people bringing in this number of lowest tier items looking for this type of work. You're sure you want to spend the resources on these? Most players outgrow this tier of gear fairly quickly." Realization dawned slowly on the smith's face as he lifted and turned each piece to properly inspect it. "Ah. I see. That won't be a problem here, will it? Fascinating, and very cl

The white-haired smith began toiling immediately upon receipt of the order, several other irons literally hot in the furnace at his side. Shaping, stretching and tugging away at the steel, it slowly took on the desired imitative form. Flaring bursts of shadow contrasting sparking embers soaked into the blade while their opposites swarmed like fireflies in the night. All the while, Ren's rhythmic clanging kept a relentless steady beat, like some pedantic percussion section with the stubborn persistence of dwarves promised their fill of ale, but only if they kept in time.

"Here you are, dear lady." Ren provided provided Majineko the sharpened claws, still wondering whether his designs would hold up to intentions. It wasn't a conventional approach, but he always welcomed a challenge. "I hope you don't mind, but thought that this might also catch your fancy." Opening his hand to reveal a pair of crude bells looped into a simple red ribbon, Ren smiled sheepishly at the awkwardness of the gesture. "It just seemed in keeping with your theme. I'm no artisan, unfortunately, so they don't sound particularly good, but maybe the sentiment will count for something?"

His white hair stained and streaked with grey from the soot, arms and chest soaked with sweat through the simple linen tunic he wore while he worked at the forge. Ren had been put to task without end of late, yet his mood was no worse for wear. Smiling through obvious fatigue, the young smith greeted Acanthus personally, taking her order and assuring her it would be done. "Give me about an hour," he suggested. The magic of Aincrad would bend and give way to what should have taken days or even weeks in the real world. True to his word, the deadline was met, though the smith looked like

Wiping a seemingly endless flow of sweat from his brow, Ren spared himself a moment to send out an unusual message.

Ren had gotten so busy that he'd been forced to take on an apprentice. The poor boy was at a bit of a loss taking in the order, having never been trusted with anything more than nails and horseshoes up to this point, and soon had to call on his master for help. "Ah, I see the issue. Here, we'll need to make some minor adjustments. Just a moment, sir. We'll have this done in a jiffy." Wielding a hammer with expert hands and a crafted mastered through the gauntlet of unceasing trial, Ren molded raw materials and assorted bits of equipment soon forging something new and more suitable to

Grateful for the help, Ren took Kyot0's offer to regain his footing. "Larbrook!" Odd that he would turn with such concern for an NPC, but the tank seemed to have a big heart, regardless of the nature of his wards. Their ally was slowly finding his own footing, his head having left quite the crater in the stone wall where it had first impacted. "It's a damned good thing you had your helm on," Ren offered, bracing him as he stood. You're right, Kyo. That could have been a lot worse. Lesson learned. I need to be more watchful, and should have been standing up front." A mild blush o
