The forge has a stone and timber structure, with a large open-sided workshop allowing smoke from the forge to escape. A sturdy anvil stands at the center, with racks of farming tools, horseshoes, and the occasional weapon displayed along the walls. The forge itself glows with the constant heat of embers, and a small, well-worn bellows rests nearby. The air around the forge carries the scent of coal, iron, and leather, with the rhythmic sound of hammering ringing through the village at most hours. The Iron Hearth Forge serves as the lifeblood of Ontus’ agricultural community, where villagers frequently visit to have their tools repaired or equipment made. Maric’s reputation for quality craftsmanship draws both locals and travelers, as he is known for making practical, reliable tools that withstand the test of time.
