Clay faces hang from the rafters. In the kiln, a last orange seam shows through the ash.

You set your weapon in the heat. Beyond this room it will deal one more damage. Your blood capacity will also grow by one: the body learns what it must endure.

There is time to bind your wounds or bottle the coals before the kiln goes dark. Below it, steps spiral beneath the lake.

Choose your way

Rest while the weapon tempers / restore up to 3 blood; gain 1 might

Bottle the kiln-fire / gain up to 2 flame and 1 might

What you carry

I. Black-glass tooth / taken from the river; +1 flame capacity.

II. White thread / Edrin's oath; +1 Ward damage against the Bellkeeper.

Mercies kept: 1 of 3. Weapon: hazel wand.
