Voices from the Forge

Post by JOAT25 »

"Ingram looks out of the small out building in the House of Chance compound that contains his forge."

"Abaddon, could I speak to you?" he shouts to get the aged mage's attention.

The old mage appears at the door, leaning on his staff. His eyes are dark, and he seems quite tired.

"What can I do for you Ingram?" Abaddon says.
"I would only teach them Necromancy as part of a balanced breakfast."

"I've been having a bit of a problem recently." Ingram's voice is calm and cold. "My problem has been with assurances. I was assured that Galen's men would safeguard my home. I was assured that my presence at the ruins was vital. Most disconcertingly, I was assured that YOU WOULD FIND THAT DAMN KEY!" At this point Ingram is red-faced and screaming, his voice echoing out of the small structure.

"Instead the one ace I had against Corbyn has gone missing, there wasn't anything at that hell hole that transpired that the others couldn't have handled, and ATRUM - a man who has BEEN BAYING FOR MY HEAD ON A PIKE - hands you back one of the keys that opens the locks that secure EVERYTHING I have worked for." The silence following the tirade is thick.

"Well, do you have anything to say for yourself?"

"I'm sorry Ingram. I have done as you asked. I offered a reward for the key, which Atrum has now given is. I made it known that there would be no questions. I was assured by Argus that the bell would be safe. We have so many enemies, that we can not even filter them out.

I will find the bell. We will have it back no matter the cost. " Abaddon eyes, his eyes dark, almost vacant.

"You are sorry? Sorry will not bring me my missing property. Sorry will not make up for the fact that a vaunted Valkyn'vi mage -supposed masters of prophecy- could not predict events a little human saw a league distant. I allowed my decisions to be swayed by your 'words of wisdom' once, and it has only served to prove once again that the only judgment I can truly trust is my own."

Ingram stands suddenly and begins collecting and arranging his smithing tools.

"I am going to attempt to forge a replacement for the bell. I only pray that I can complete a replacement before Corbyn decides to show his head, if it is even possible. See to it that I am not disturbed. I am assuming this is something you are actually capable of, of course."

"As you wish. I will attempt to keep you from being interrupted. " Abaddon says before vanishing with the slam of a door.
