The Hermits Abode

Picking up the knife, Demazee goes through several movements, testing its versatility.

Finally, I awake to see you trying out your knife. "I have never seen that blade before did you make it?"

Stopping in mid-set, demazee turns to face the fox. "Yes, i though to resume my research into that crystal in the main room. This is the result. the wierd thing is, even after melting it down at the heat i use on Chaos ore, the instant i removed it from the fire, it was cold to the touch. Liquid, but cold." She looks down at the intricate veins of Chaos embedded into the crystal dagger. "I forgot to clean out the mold, apparently"

"I was guessing that. You always forget. So, you think this will stop the shade?" asked Akira as he hopped on the stool.

"I think so. remember what happened with the last one?"

"Yea but I didn't know if you did that or the crystal..."

"I know it wasnt me. all i did was throw that proto. i didnt use any special ability that i know of"

"Do you think you should make a weapon for me too? I just need something made for self defence."

"What would you like? claws maybe?" She says as she examines ur paws

"That would be cool! Like Vega from the coolio-station console I have a home. He was my favourite Avenue Combatant!"

... "O-kay? ill take that as a yes" Demazee grabs several wood templates, strapping them to harts paws and asking him to swing each individual one to find the right lenght of the blades.

He swung the claws exactly like dema needed and waited patiently for his new claws.

Taking several large chunks of the glowing crystal and a small ingot of Chaos ore, Demazee places them into a crucible before placing it over the white flames, waiting for the crystal and metal to melt together. "with the chaos in this alloy, it will take longer than mine did to melt"

Akira slips goggles on to watch.

Laughs "have you ever wondered why my hair is so white?"

"Well now I know.."

"Just dont get too close or youll resemble an egyptian hairless cat"

Akira kept his distance as Dwma worked and slowly crafted a beautiful weapon.

Demazeee looks into the crucible and shakes her head. "Lets break for lunch. It has yet to melt completely"

"Otay....."*runs to get chinease food*

Laughs and keeps pumping the billows, keeping the furnace at a constant temperature

*comes back with food* Its time to eat!

"be there in a second" Demazee reaches down and attaches a machine to the billows, winding a spring on the floor to which the device is attached, the billows working themselves now. Pleased with the working machine, demazee walks over to Akira and sits down.

Akira sets the meal and bows over it and says a prayer before he starts to eat.

After Akira finishes the hommage to the gods, we dig in, starved by the strenght-draining heat.
