[the true art of forging is a lie, every material made and every method used is unique and would only work best for the smith implementing it. But regardless of the art or the method, the true pinnacle of smiting is to one day eventually, forge a soul.
But such a peak has not been reached yet, not unless by the great gods of the forge, chief amongst them being Hephaestus the god of fire…. I know this because I have face him in battle he is or rather was a man whose ferocity was unmatched, and even greater than his ferocity was his intellect and ingenuity.
