Walker took a seat as well so that he could be on the same level as the wandering cksmith. "I also heard that there was a wandering forge master system. I have a feeling that you visited the dwarves and that you know about spirit forging. But, that isn''t the truth anymore. There is a new path for spirit forging."


    The wandering cksmith grew even more serious. His face showed more wrinkles and his tapping foot stopped while he waited to hear what Walker had to say.. "Instead of burning the soul and forcing an elemental spirit in to a weapon, we did something else. We had the elemental spirit help us and gather mana. It created what we call a dwelling weapon. Su has an earth dwelling shield. It lets an earth spirit dwell within. It can leave whenever it wants."


    The wandering cksmith slowly opened his mouth to speak but no sound came out before he closed it again. "This isn''t the end. The earth dwelling shield has a skill called earth fortress I believe. The earth elemental spirit is able to separately activate the skill using the earth elemental mana stored in a mana gem in the earth dwelling shield."


    Walker paused letting the wandering cksmith absorb this information, "The skill allowed the spirit to put up earth walls all around the wielder of the shield and protect them. Even from the back where the wielder isn''t looking. We also gained a spirit mark skill that let the spirit dwell within us but that is just an added bonus. The point is, that the spirit forging technique is possible."


    The wandering cksmith leaned back and whistled. He wasn''t sure what to say. He had researched so many things and out of everything he had done he never believed that spirit forging would be a viable path.


    "Grey even made a dragon style golem that has a core which can let a fire elemental spirit dwell within. The fire elemental spirit can control the golem as it desires when dwelling within the core. It is very impressive." There was another moment of shock as the wandering cksmith processed yet another big piece of news.


    "Show ma." This was a simple pair of words. But Walker knew that it more than signaled he had enticed the wandering cksmith enough.


    "It''s too big for in here sp let''s go outside. The fire elemental spirit is off exploring so we can''t get it to control the golem and Midnight has the spirit mark for it. The golem can act on its own though as long as it receives orders. We found a cyclops me staff in sp,e ruins that we used so it could resist the heat of mes." Walker gave the details after they moved to the outside of the forge.


    When the shining golem came to light the wandering cksmith instantly began to examine it. Surprisingly, Walker watched as the wandering cksmith rushed inside the forge and came back to begin to draw up small blueprints and designs.


    "You don''t have to improve it. I just wanted to show you." Walker was afraid that he had somehow mimunicated the reason for showing the wandering cksmith the golem. Yet, when the wandering cksmith shook his head Walker somehow knew that it was because he wanted to learn and alter the golem and not because he was asked to.


    Walker didn''t see any reason to stop him so he grabbed his chair to watch the valuation and tell the wandering cksmith what had happened in the dwarven kingdom. The story went on and the wandering cksmith would look up here and there to listen or express an emotion.


    "Then I learned some of the forging skills, but the craziest part that nearly gave the elder and Grey a heart attack was when I got the portable forge skill." Walker would have spoken more but the wandering cksmith ad licked both hands on Walkers'' shoulders. "Yes, I said portable forge skill. I also know that you have to have the skill too with some form of spatial storage or something."


    The wandering cksmith released Walker and sat down in front of him looking at the blueprints and thinking. He eventually lit up again showing excitement. "I don''t much like to speak. It wastes time. Congrattions on the skill. I hope that we can both forge in the icy mountains to learn more soon." This was all the wandering cksmith said. However, there was a weight to these words that rang within Walker.


    "I am excited about it too. I can''t even begin to imagine just how much I will learn from you." Walker put the same strength of emotion and ended up shaking hands with the wandering cksmith. The two had reaffirmed their deal but also be partners in the world of cksmithing. There was a lot that Walker had learned but so much more he was ignorant to. The wandering cksmith could learn to spirit forge properly and Walker could learn the basics to go with what he had already gained.


    "I n to leave the golem here though. I think you will be able to do whatever it is you want with it. Just remember that when the fore elemental spirit returns you exin it even if you can''t hear what it is saying. The spirits use mana to speak and only myself and Midnight can understand it. But Onyx can trante what Midnight says so a conversation is possible."


    The wandering cksmith shook his head a few times before heading back in to the forge and clearing the table. It appeared that he had been consumed by the blue prints for the golem. Walker left him a few of the receable scales and decided to leave things on that note. He had to get ready for a trip to the mountains at some point. But for now, he was going to take a walk through the city to breathe in the air of home.
