9th of Eleasias, 1376, Year of the Bent Blade

 Today Vandederp announced that his sword was finish, nearly, and he would be able to bring it home tonight. He asked us to come, as it was an important even for him and it should be witnessed. So we go to Mitévra's to see it be finished and presented to him.

When we get there, Vandederp helps out as he can - he is much more familiar with the forge than he was when he started! But that makes sense. 

Once they are done everything, I have no idea what they were doing, but it got done, Mitévra asked Vandederp to get ready to receive it. She called down a blessing from Purphoros, which was granted when he showed up and blessed the sword. It's the most amazing thing ever! It's almost like I can feel his power, and I can feel that he blessed the sword - if it was like this at Vorest's tree, I can understand why everyone was so content. This is amazing.

Then Mitévra handed it to Vandederp, to which he thanked her profusely, and placed it back in its scabbard. We celebrated a little, and cheered, then we went back to the inn, to confirm what was happening next - We are going to head to Sheirtalar, by boat, preferably. Vondal also wants to study the book of strength that was gotten. So the plan is to find a ship, that will leave after 5 days or so, while Vondal studies the book.

 Vandederp heads to the smithy with Brunghild the Everlasting's blood. Mitévra is pleased, and they start discussing what needs to be done and how Vandederp will be helping. I leave him there, and go exploring. I need to be able to find my way back to the inn at the end of the day, if I find temples and sages.

 The innkeep suggests a smithy "Mitévra Smithy." We head over since Vandederp's sword is one of the biggest reasons that we are here.

The smithy is a minotaur, with some sort of holy symbol and complains about adventurers wanting "magic weapons." Vandederp says, but MY sword! She finally offers to look at it. She looks and then admires it, saying that she might be able to do something grand with it, IF Vandederp is willing to sacrifice. He says yes, of course, and she announces that her shop is closed and brandy should be brought out. Iogi closes up and grabs the brandy.

Mitévra asks if we've heard of Brunghild the Everlasting. We say no, and she starts telling us about frost giants, who normally worship Thrym (god of frost giants and cold). Sometimes the giants are sought out by Vaprak, with dreams. If the giants sound willing, then Vaprak will send a troll to be eaten. When the troll is eaten, the frost giant gets the troll benefits, and it is everlasting.

Brunghild was one of these and the leader of her group - until it was discovered that she worshipped Vaprak, and was kicked out.

Mitévra wants a gallon of Brunghild's blood. She points out where she believes Brunghild lives. After that, it will be 10 weeks of work, that Vandederp needs to help with. 

We continue shopping. Vorest gets some armour and Vondal buys some oil to help make Brunghild flammable.
