Pyros heads back out into the rain and turns north. Making his way to the river, he follows it upstream to where the natural hill on the Eastern side of town divides Upper Skald. A large, squarish building boasts an iron sign in the shape of an anvil with intricate curls, leafing, and decorative elements within tbe border proclaiming it The Artistic Anvil.

Making his way inside, there is a wide counter separating the street from the work area behind where several apprentices and smiths work on various projects. Pyros can see allmmanner of decorative wrought-iron scroll-work and other more practical objects.

A dark haired man in his middle years regards the boyish looking Kender with amusement.

Crap what are his odds of understanding Harmonian?
====================================================
He hopes for Elven. He pulls out his club that he wants to get fixed.
"Can you fix this?"

The man seems to understand, but looks at the damaged golden studs with a puzzled expression. His grasp of Elven seems basic but conversatonal, and carries that a-tonal aspect Pyros has come to expect from the locals. Gold good for decoration, not use. You want gold fix or like real club with steel?
===
The gold studs were damaged very badly
To have it repaired properly will probably take a couple of days. To have the gold studs removed and new steel or iron put in could be done by morning

-Repair gold, 1gp, 2-3 days
-Replace gold with iron or steel, 2sp. Done by morning

the blacksmith blinks and looks at the club, then the Kender. Man... beasts? He sounds out the words. Finally he seems to take it as the product of youthful imagination. Oh, sure. It is good for man-beasts. No problem. he grins

Pyros shakes his head. Trying to think what they were called.

"WereJackals? Replace with iron please. May I have the gold studs back?"

With a small sigh. "Thank you. He will put his hood up and make his way to The Stone. These awful creatures that tricked and ambushed Cross are going to get what is coming to them!

Pyros exits the smithy. From the front he can see that the rain is swelling the river nearby, causing the mist caused by the dual waterfalls behind the Old Kartakan Inn to billow ominously; almost obscuring the structure save for the high peaked roof and octagonal tower.

====
So The Stone is literally on the opposite side of town in Lower Skald. It would probably take him an hour or so just to get there in this weather. He would recall the mage shop proprietor wasn't terribly hospitable as well. Is there something specific he is looking for? Just trying to save Pyros some time

He wants something to help vs the were-animals. Those Jackals got to him, luring out Cross and destroying him. I think he understands that the silver bullets are supposed to help, but he is hoping to get something prevent that from happening again. Or at least be a help to the group.

He is understanding his mundane weapons aren't the most useful against these magic things they seem to be facing. But I don't just want to push him in trying to find a +1 dagger, because that isn't what he would do. Hence the asking about more interesting bullets, or things to toss at the baddies.

He would probably recall the Magic shop didn't really have anything like that. In fact most places around seem reluctant or secetive about keeping obvious silver weapons about

Ok, sounds good.

Work time is when I'll be posting for the time being.

Home life is still crazy, got kids in football, dance, and birthday parties all the weekends.

They are at The Old Kartakan Inn?
======================================
At a loss to get answers, Pyros will stop in first at the Golden Lute, he will see if anyone there will understand him, and if he can ask about any stories of the were-creatures.

He will buy some drinks for folks as encouragement. If they take him seriously, of if they can understand each other.
(What has his percent of understanding Harmonian become?)
