Who: Sokka, maybe some Maglor, and you!!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: The Iskaulit
When: Backdated a couple days ago - before the new planet mingle

[The feed opens up to one of the larger, empty rooms in the Iskaulit. There's a few boxes stacked around, but otherwise the room is starkly empty. Sokka grins, raising his arms in the middle of the room. In the background, Maglor seems to be moving stuff out of boxes.]

So, hey guys! Me and Maglor have decided it'd be a great idea to build a forge on the Iskaulit. So many people don't have a clue what they're doing with guns, we figured giving them a chance to have weapons more suited to their time period might help them out a little.

Plus, you know, Atroma can suck it with taking our weapons away from us. We'll just make new ones.

ANYhoo, it's obviously gonna be a while before it gets set up, but anyone willing to come help build it, or gather materials, that kind of thing would be really appreciated. We'll put your names on a little plaque or something. Hopefully, we'll get something awesome out of this.

I'd be happy to help if I can get a sword out of it. What exactly do you need?

A forge? Doesn't that involve like, fire and lava and such? That seems dangerous.

[Aha, so Maglor is working on this then.]

I offered Maglor-san my help once already, but I will offer it to you as well. Should you need any funding or supplies, please don't hesitate to ask.

I'm not much use in building anything but I can provide enough heat to start the forge once it's built. Or if the fire ever goes out.

Hardly lava, we are not forging Rings of Power!

[ ... probably. ahem. ]

But fire, yes, which could be. Sokka believes that we can hook up a system to the pipes in the Iskaulit to put out any flames if mischance should occur.

[Shiro smiles at the feed. Seeing Sokka rambling like that definitely reminds him of someone.]

That's a good idea, Sokka. [An approving nod - he really means it. A world without weapons would be wonderful, but many other people have abilities here, and Raven told him about a raid. Everyone should be able to defend themselves.] Do you have a list of materials you can share? So I can keep an eye out for them.

It is a great idea. (He wholeheartedly approves.) My brother is wise.

That is an excellent idea! [Robb is genuinely excited about this!] I would like to help. I am no blacksmith but I know a few things.

[A few small things.]

[ video ]

[alwayscomeback]

There will be so many swords. Right now, we need basic supplies. Metal, rock, things we can work to make the forge proper.

[video]

[alwayscomeback]

Molten metal- not lava. I mean, if we used lava, I'm pretty sure we'd all be dead. Because lava kind of kills people.

[alwayscomeback]

That'd be great! We need all the help we can get, it's a pretty big project.

[alwayscomeback]

What, like...magically?

[imfine1111one]

[Honestly that's as far as his knowledge on forging goes, so that's a relief.]

Fire is still a concern, yes. I'm just a bit wary of creating such a risk in a space craft. Is there no other way to create, er-- 'old school' weaponry?

[Video]

[alwayscomeback]

[They have to be realistic, after all. Better safe and prepared than sorry and dead. ]

Sure thing. [He'll upload a list of largely metals and rocks, a few tools. Useful forge-y things. ] Thanks, man, I appreciate it. And yeah, hopefully this'll be something good for everyone.

[video]

[imfine1111one]

Yes, that would be why I was worried. That still sounds incredibly dangerous and high risk!

[alwayscomeback]

You're Malgor's brother? That's cool, I didn't know he had family here.

video

[alwayscomeback]

We'll take all the help we can get! We still need people to help find materials to build it with and help lift and carry stuff. You'll be great!

video

[touchallthebooks]

Exactly. I'm a mage, fire isn't hard to conjure. [Just to give an example, his eyes glow and a ball of molten fire appears in his hands. And is gone almost as quickly.]

[video]

[alwayscomeback]

Of course it is, there's still a lot of heat there. But we'll make sure there's plenty of safety precautions. We already picked a place in the ship away from the other businesses and stuff.

video

[alwayscomeback]

Like a firebender, then. Okay, cool. We can always use that!

Re: video

[touchallthebooks]

I have no idea what a firebender is but I thought it might help. At least a bit.

(Video)

[castintoflames]

Yes, I am. I am his eldest brother, in fact. There are seven of us, though I am the only brother of his present amongst the Fleet.

[imfine1111one]

Eurgh. . .well, there doesn't seem to be much point in arguing against it. You're clearly set on it! After that last attack I can understand why people think they need weapons but can't you just. . .er, buy them? Instead of making them?

Re: [ video ]

[evervigilante]

That's all? Nothing more specific?

video;

[ahappylie]

I don't doubt it. Is there anything you are in need of already? I'm afraid I'm rather useless for building things, but I can certainly help in other ways.
