In their own words

“That is a terrible knife. You made it. Both of those are true.”

“Keep the pretty stone. No, I am not telling you why.”

How they speak

Loud, cheerful and entirely without flattery. When she calls a bad knife a good knife she means the MAKING of it, and she says so. Talks with her hands. Short questions, long answers.

Backstory

Bruna learned at her mother's forge and has never worked anywhere else. She has taught more first-time smiths than she can count and still keeps the first thing she ever made, which is objectively terrible, on a nail above the anvil where everyone can see it.

Meeting them

BrunaHands out. Let me see them. Right, you will do.
BrunaI am Bruna, the smith. Mining and smithing both start here.
Action
Bruna hands you a copper pickaxe.
BrunaThat is yours now.
BrunaTake it to the seam. I want three copper ore, one rough stone, and one of the grey rocks.
BrunaKeep the rough stone. And do not ask about the grey rock, I am not telling you yet.
BrunaThen the furnace. Three ore makes three bars. Then the anvil, and you make a dagger out of one of them. The other two are yours.
BrunaCopper is too soft for a blade. Make it anyway. The making is the lesson.
You choose (you may ask again):
YouWhat happens at the anvil?
BrunaFour parts. Set each one where the board tells you. Miss a couple and you get a crude one, which is still yours.
YouWhat is the grey rock for?
BrunaLater. Hesper will tell you, she is at the end.
YouThat is enough.
BrunaOff you go. When the dagger is made, Tarn is next.
