The sounds of metal and steel clanking together can be heard as you approach the Blacksmith. Varieties of shiny maces, swords, and spears are stung on shelves that line the walls in the shop. A big, burly man can be seen hammering away at swords as he brazens them through the melting pot. His young apprentice greets the customers. The walls are blackened from soot by the fire pit.

I am the local blacksmith. I repair items made of iron as well as create new ones. I am frequently covered in soot as my job requires a lot of ash and heat.
Why yes, I can tell you the may to the market. But, have you no interest in any of my makings? I have no use for them today. I am more interested in the new corn that is supposed be sold today. How long does the market stay open today? maybe I will return to look over your wares, if I cannot find the corn. *sharpens knife* I do believe the market is open until sun down. Now, what is so special about this new corn that you must have? They say it is a blue corn... nothing I have ever seen, I have seen yellow, and white, but never blue corn A blue corn? Now that seems quite unusual. I would accompany you, but I am covered from head to toe in soot. Would you like for me to buy you some and bring it back when I am done? I would not mind and that way i can look over your wares and see if there is anything I need from you. What a kind soul you are! That would be so nice, Do you want to give me a coin or two? I have just enough money of my own to purchase the coin or I would not ask. Why yes of course. Now, let me go find some. Hmmm, now where did I put my dang coin bag. Are you very successful in your business? I can tell you are quite busy! In deed. I am the only blacksmith around. I have a way with iron. So essentially you have cornered the market for now. How far to the next town?
