Without your words, your touch... I fear I would have sought purpose and solace in that void.

“Let Shepard rest ! We don’t need them to be the protagonist anymore !”

They tried that with Andromeda and yall shit all over it even though it’s a good game.

Edit addition: Because Ryder’s story still needs to be told and we probably could have been had that but no yall were crying “Where’s Garrus” “Where’s Liara” “Where’s Wrex” instead of getting to know the new characters but now all of a sudden it’s shifted to “We don’t need Shepard to be the protagonist”

Make up your fucking minds

Fantasy Novel: Chapter 2 Snippet

“I think I’ll make some damascas for this piece.” He grips the metal piece and wipes it with the corner of his apron to get the dirt off it.

That reveals a bit of the metal that’s untarnished and it looks almost violet. Rowan’s eyes widen and she gazes upon the metal in his hands. 

Oh, the beauty it is to begin with, let alone to think he’s going to layer it for his damascus design which gives decorative, yet gorgeous results.

“You like it?” her father asks with a calculated, approving once-over.

“I do.” She nods and heads for the bellows.

She takes a quick glance at the quench vat to make sure it’s deep enough and nods in approval. 

Before he can stick his blank into the forge, she takes a second to grab the iron poker. She shifts the coal around just as she hears her father’s boots on the ground as they grow closer. 

Nearly throwing the poker back in its barrel, she rushes to her position. She tries to smile at him and pumps the giant bellows a few times to stir up the heat. Her father watches and waits until she gives it three long bursts of air before his gaze rises to her, but only for a moment. 

It’s a proud, approving look and she’s going to take it for what it is. It’s his best effort to try and forget what’s happening in the world and just focus on the two of them working together. 

Countless bangs of Orind’s hammer against the steel and his anvil mark the changing hours. Rowan knows they miss lunch because, when she considers food in the still moments, her stomach growls and churns angrily. 

Those thoughts are quickly shoved away when her father calls out for something, though.

‘More air! The coal! My hammer! The other hammer! Tongs!’

‘Water, Row. Water!’

That’s the only time she can make him tend to his needs. She shoves the canteen of water into his hands every chance she can. He then calls out an acknowledgment of it as if he suddenly remembers he needs to drink. Without the water, the heat would surely get to him. 

Together, her work keeping his thirst in check and the chill, autumn air are helping to keep him on his feet. She knows he’s still wearing himself thin, but she could sooner move the mountains than get him to stop.

“Damn the hells!” Her father shouts in frustration at something he sees on his blade. 

He slams it on the anvil and it breaks in half, cracks weaving through the metal. Anger taking over, he tosses it with all his might with disastrous results.

Not seeing where he’s throwing his discarded metal which is still of great size aside, he hits the quench trough right beside him. It causes steam to burst out and oil to splash upward. 

He’s too close.

He’s too close.
