Shane’s horse whinnied unhappily. Too many people, she practically whined. Shane shifted in her harness, squinting suspiciously at the people around her.

(Ikr, but I have wifi at school)

(Yeah my school has wifi too but my teachers have gotten more strict on foods)

(Nuuuuu! But food!)

(Oof I meant phones XD)

(whos gonna interact with Victoria?)

(Aalexi and Will are just walking on a path so..)

Cassidy walked into town, eager to get back to work. She walked to the blacksmith place (i dont know what its actually called) and walked in the front door. Pulling her sleeved farther over her hands.

(It’s just Rey’s Smithy. You can call it whatever.)

Rey perked up when he heard the door open and looked over. He rose from his chair, sparks still stuttering from his smithy.
“Hi there. What do you need? A sword, axe, dagger, kitchen knife? I have it all.” He gave a meek smile that clearly suggested his emotions.

(whos gonna interact with Victoria?)

(Aalexi and Will are just walking on a path so..)

(Okay.)

Victoria got up from her hammock after being unable to fall asleep in it. She stretched her legs after getting up to talk a walk around No-Mans Land.

"Hi, I was wondering if your open for apprenticeship?" She asked hopeful.

Rey blinked. “Really? Well, yeah! Of course I do. What experience do you have in the forge?”

"No professional experience I'm mostly self taught" She answered ecstatic he is actually considering it

Rey rubbed his face a little. “Can you identify the differences between different metals? Know when to use them, at least?”

"Of course!" She answered, she had spent the majority of her life studying books on metals and teaching herself everything she could about blacksmithing. She pulled out a small throwing knife from her pocket. "I made a set of these out of steel" Cassidy balanced the knife on her finger to show that it was balanced.

Will looked around. "I think we really are lost. But at least we found the path" he said to her quietly

Rey grabbed it delicately and rubbed his rough fingers over the surface.
“Huh, you made some nice steel, that’s for sure…” He examined the bottom, holding it in his hand.
“It’s a little uncomfortable to hold, but well done. Do you know how to make a hilt?”

Vespera kept moving forwards with her horses, who were aware of the sounds of other people nearby, but hardly alarmed. She kept an eye out still; she didn't want to be jumped again.

Cassidy nodded and pulled out a medium sized knife with a neat but simple looking hilt "My hilts still need some improvement" She commented handing the knife to Rey

Shane bent over the wagon. “So what specifically do you want me to take? Oh, what’s your name, by the way? I’m Shane.”

(Nore, a hilt is the grippy part on a knife near the bottom.)

"Oh, um… well anything you can. Mostly the things in those crates in the back. I'm Vespera, since you asked," she said, jumping down off her horse to gather a few things for Shane to load up.

Shane tugged at the cart, pulling it closer so she could lift the crates easier. “Where should we load ‘em up?”
