"Listen closely because this will only be said once. Those participating within this event are limited to twenty four hours. They must use their knowledge of their craft to create an item to the highest of their abilities. There are multiple categories that will be rewarded, woodwork, leatherwork, tal work, chanical creations, and finally, unique. These may expand in the future but are limited for this competition."
The crowd of rchants and younger crafters was very impressed that so many chances existed to win things. They had expected there to be basic categories but nothing too expansive. So people were surprised to see that chanical creations were in this competition. However, as they looked at the dwarven blacksmiths, they realized that they were going to be blessed to see a golem created.
The unique category gained the most attention though. "I think the unique category will be the best result. They will be using monster materials I assu." Mordant was already checking out the unique monster materials. So even gave off delectable scents that he would gladly have hunted with his dragonkin.
"There are no rules as long as you do not break the taboos of forging. You shall not copy and steal another's design. You shall not forcefully bond an elental sport within your work. You will not use your soul as fuel to create your work. You will not insult another crafter's work, if you are found to be doing so…" The king of the deep slamd a massive pickaxe down on the main arena causing many cracks to form. Everyone knew what the punishnt would be.
"To that respect, I wish everyone the best. Take the materials that have been carved from the earth and fought for with blood and sweat. Create sothing worth the world's gaze. Create sothing worthy of the na of Genesis. Begin!"
In seconds the coliseum was full of smoke. Many mages begin using their skills to purify the air and keep things from becoming toxic. This was the sa magic used to be inscribed on wind elental crystals above chimneys to purify the air.
Many flas burst up as small forges were beginning to heat materials. So of the carpenters were using large tools to carve their very own parts from large chunks of unique wood. The most amazing seed to be a statue carver that had begun to already cut out the face from a solid chunk of stone. Walker had not seen such crafters up close and was impressed at the speed.
"There are many here that have unique ideas. I believe that this is what inspiration can do when many races are brought together." Mordant saw why Genesis was going to grow. He was seeing very clearly the potential being realized.
"I understand what you are seeing. Many are already using different techniques influenced by the other races. That dwarf is carving stone like vines. That elf is carving wood in to columns. It is an interesting change from their traditional values." Ignus beca much more philosophical. It surprised them but was very correct.
" I can see a few familiar faces. I didn't think our dragonkin would be joining. For that small group of flas elves." Walker watched as Ignus and Mordant both smirked. They knew that their dragonkin would be making weapons that they used within their villages. It would outdo many of the basic things being made.
"If they bothered to learn anything, they may take all of the prizes offered here." Ignus gloated when he saw that his dragonkin blacksmith was hefting larger hamrs than the others while forging with hotter flas.
"You don't think you could watch your dragonkin beat mine? Do you? Foolish as always. They stand no chance against the darkness elental wood we have brought to craft the finest staff." Mordant saw one of his dragonkin carving multiple darkness affinity woods to create a close combat staff with darkness elental runes on it.
"Well, if we are competing, then you should look over there." Walker pointed to where Midnight was working with a very familiar face. "That is Rodney, I've helped him with his quests before. I also know that he has a lot of potential. Not to ntion that he is one of the people responsible for pushing the crafting guild to beco a real guild rather than just a group of people."
"So that is where your champion has gone. She is forging. How interesting. But she is not doing…" Ignus saw that Midnight was using the golden flas she could breathe from her golden fla heart. She was not going easy on the work she perford.
"He's using a fusion of seven ores on that single ingot. That's sothing I don't think many people could manage without Midnight's help. Rodney is pretty unique." Walker continued to gloat a little here and there when he saw Ignus get stuck on the work Midnight and Rodney were doing.
"I just wish to see that true spirit fogging." Mordant pointed to the elental spirits that had built up around the coliseum. It was easy to see that they were waiting to be able to jump in to the competition.
"I wonder how many of them will have the partners to create sothing. It would be nice to see so dual elental true spirit fogging. I heard that they were going to be doing so here." Onyx shared this surprising news without even blinking. He wanted them to be impressed by the things he had learned without their knowledge.
"That explains why Rodney is making use of so many different ores. I can't wait to see." Walker lost himself to his curiosity. It was all downhill from there. The three fell in to banter about who was using what and who could do what. It was sothing many dwarves around heard and began to argue with them. Sooner than expected, the entire crowd of rchants and young crafters fell in to lengthy debates about crafting.
