Furnace struggled to catch Alulah's words over the roaring fire around him.
Did she call out Carver? Wasn't that the name of the iron friend?
Kid? Kid.. kind. kindle? Fire? Power is energy and energy burns. She must like the fire!
Maybe if he brought the fire over to him?

Most goblins and kobolts around him now seemed hesitant to get close to him, maybe they were done fighting.
He had collected plenty of material now anyways. He skipped over to Carver under his pile of violence.
He held the ball of heat above him, as if planning to meteor hammer it down upon them. Those that could scattered, those that couldn't were damaged and distracted enough for Carver to dispatch them with ease.
But Carver did look worse for wear, there were dents, tears and cuts in both his armor and body.
As Carver sat on his knees on the ground Furnace could stand before him eye to eye and speechless.
Though all carver would see was a silhouette blotting out a large ball of of intense heat above him.
When Furnace moved closer the metal started to soften up a little, he took care not to bring the fires above them too close.
Such a beautiful work of art shouldn't be reforged. With the metal soft and pliable Furnace hammered some quick fixes, kept it from falling apart. Decent repair would come later. The creature within the armor needed repairs more.

With a deep breath Furnace reached out and upwards to the orb ablaze as it slowly turned brighter, paler. yellow turned to white, red turned to gold. With a crackling sound of lightning the orb reduced in size as two coils of white golden energy siphoned out, trough Furnace's hands and surging into Carver. Furnace breathed slowly as he converted all the heat into positive energy. As the flames around them died down and the glowing circle blinked out of existence Carver felt a warm glow spread violently trough his body. His wounds slammed shut and his fatigue ebbed away. All the pain replaced with excess energy, like he had eaten a cart full of sugar directly after a long nap.

"Hello again, friend."
