Shop Atmosphere

The Iron & Ember sits at the end of Ironway Alley: black soot on the lintel, a signboard scorched at one corner, and the constant hiss of quenched steel. Brom Ironbellow — a broad-shouldered hill dwarf (Artificer, level 12) — runs the forge; his beard is singed, his left forearm bears hammer scars, and a little soot bird nests on the anvil when he feels generous. He greets customers with a curt nod, a glass of bitter ale, and a blunt, practical opinion on whether a weapon's problem is the metal or the wielder. Brom will haggle with traders, bargain with mercenaries, and will only sell the rarest wares to those he trusts.
