One of the things about being sick is that, having cut out as much physical activity as I could from my life (the better to rest and heal – being unable to breathe is exhausting!), I have more time to meditate. So(…)
A Test Of Iron
The runed exterior of the forge glowed dangerously bright. My tongs were softening in my grip. Even as the heat-loving trollkona (temperature extremes was where I felt comfortable as a trollkona), I was having difficulty remaining in the smithy. But I continued with the task.
