Shut Down the Forge Ward
Read Aloud
Heat hits first, a hard wall of it. A fire elemental surges up from the molten altar while two iron suits peel free from the walls and stomp for the catwalks. The rune dais crackles red at the center of the vault, close enough to read, dangerous enough to kill for trying.

1
Rune Ring
Three rune pillars ring the forge pit. Each hums hot and sheds bright sparks when struck.
2
Molten Altar
A stone altar above the fire that anchors the forge wards. The runes here can be read, but not safely.
3
Fire Catwalks
Narrow iron catwalks cross a river of fire. Fast, exposed, and easy to break under weight.
Terrain Levers
- Knock a rune pillar loose to block a catwalk or pin a suit of armor.
- Smash a valve at the molten altar to spray burning slag across a lane.
- Flip a chain winch to raise or drop a catwalk over the fire river.
