Blacksmithing

"I mean... The answer to the question was pretty obvious to me... Sleep in the goblin cave, potentially get assaulted by the Thing in The Dark while you sleep," Muma says with a shrug.

"I mean you can have a sex toy for free, those aren't really my normal services, only one though and I get the feeling you'd get more use out of this," she says and picks up a strap-on from the table, it's black silicon and is about 10 inches in length from base to tip with a wide head and a surprisingly thick shaft. Yulia stares at it as Dahlia presents it and Dahlia glances at her. "I can feel you blushing under that mask. You imagining how good it would feel? If someone..." she gives Cherchiel a meaningful glance, "were to hold you down and slowly push this hard and thick boy into your most sensitive and hidden spots?" she asks and Yulia visibly shivers, "It's free as stated. Even comes with this complimentary bottle of lubrication." she adds holding up a small bottle in her other hand.

Yulia coughs, "Um... If it's free maybe I'll..." she hesitates, "we'll see what the voices say of course. C... Can't make an important decision like that without them!" she hurriedly cuts herself off and Dahlia laughs.

"Oh of course not..." she agrees with a grin, "You're so cute," she adds after a few seconds and Yulia looks away.

"We... We should go give this metal to the blacksmith... N... Nice seeing you Dahlia!" she says and turns to hurry from the cave.

The four women, Yulia, Cherchiel, Muma and Goma head back to the cave entrance, at the cave entrance Goma stops, "Goma wait here for Yoo-Lee-Ah..." she says and Yulia nods and then Goma adds, "Voice ask Goma about Gia... Gia friend. Best Friend! Goma love Gia!" she says excitedly and then smiles weakly, "Gia have important duty, lives in lumpy rock place, work all day, sleep all night... Lumpy rock place... disappear, Goma... not get to see Gia often..." she says and then shakes her head, "but it okay! Gia is busy being important! Helping Yoo-Lee-Ah!" Goma says excitedly and seemingly with pride. Obviously she's quite proud of her friend performing such an important job.

"We'll be back," Yulia tells Goma and Goma nods.

The three women then head back through the forest to Faidhalm and arrive at the blacksmith, "Hello!" Yulia greets him and he glances up,

"Welcome back," he states idly and goes back to his work. Yulia approaches the desk where he's working, quietly takes an ingot out of the bag and places it on the desk. He doesn't seem to notice it immediately, but then he stops and his eyes slowly drift over to it.

"That... That's steel..." he states in a slow, reverent tone, his work stopped.

"It is indeed," Yulia responds and begins to put more ingots one by one onto the desk. As each one is placed the blacksmith watches with awe and as the last one is placed down a single tear slips form his eye and down his cheek.

"It's so... so beautiful..." he states and carefully moves a hand to touch the metal. Cautiously as if afraid it might vanish if he moves too quickly, as his hand touches the metal he inhales sharply and then exhales slowly, his body shaking and then he speaks, his voice low and lustful, "Alright... What am I making?" he asks hungrily.

Yulia looks uncertain and the blacksmith hesitates and then continues.

"I can make a simple weapon with a single ingot, with two I can make a reinforced weapon, with three I can make a special ultra durable weapon using my own unique smithing method. I can reinforce your current outfit for 4 ingots, make you a suit of chainmail for 6 and full plate for 8," he explains, seemingly giddy and eager to start working.
