@Wraithblade6 @kishin asura As our heroes decended via the stairs carved into the rock by claw, and tooth, the smell of freshly milled soil rises up to meet them. The lower they went, the stronger the smell of freshly tilled soil became, until the stairs ceased, and their feet met the soft embrace of soil, it giving slightly under them. Once out of the stone cave, they find themselves in a long hallway, the floor being covered in what must be an extensively deep layer of soft soil, while large tunnels branch off of the hall, all dimly lit by torches adorned on the wall, fastened by a strange white fabric that apparently sticks to the very walls.
"this is the great hive. This is where my people call home. All save for a few clans which live on the outside of the mound.." Issac begins, giving a tour. "We're heading to the lowest point of the great hive, where the blacksmiths work down in the deepest parts of the earth, barely above the molten seas. They work with the heaviest metals found in the lands, and some even go into the molten seas to find rare new metals." Issac states, as he begins to descend deeper, down a pathway marked with the sounds of metal being stuck, bent to the will of the blacksmiths down below. After another short walk, Issac and co appear before a room, filled with anvils, blacksmiths tools, and blacksmiths of various forms, sizes, and species. Some look as though like spider men, with many arms forging many different things at once. Some of them look to be slugs, using the pools of slime they create to quench the heated metals once formed. A few look to be normal humans, an oddity among the mostly insect like creatures there. One of them is working on a huge blade, one in the style of a Katana, but almost eight feet long.
Issac moves though this crowd, soon emerging with a new blade, the same as his old blade. "Here, our best create armor, weapons, and other metal nicknacks that our people need." He says, holding up his new blade. "....Quite the craftsmanship.......if you all would need anything made of metal, here is the place to find it." He says, smiling.
