Forgemistress Yih,
I fear to inform you that my work will be taking me away for the following week. May we meet on the 22nd to discuss payment and perhaps future work?
Best,
A.V. Duskquill
Agreeable. Come to my workshop at Saturday 22nd, at seven bells.

Most esteemed Ghostforge,
Word of your work has reached my ears, and at a good time too. I find myself in need of a particularly skilled blacksmith.
I’d like a weapon forged. A blade, specifically. The details of which I would like to discuss with you in person at your forge, if such is a possiblility. If so, please contact me to arrange a meeting on your terms. I shall leave the address of a local courier’s office with you and await your word.
Most sincere regards
-Ymerawdwr
The letter is written in Common, and on a seperate piece of paper tucked into the envelope is the return address. As stated in the letter it seems to be for a courier’s office in Suramar, with no home address whatsoever. My work hours can be a little hectic sometimes so the easiest way to talk about a time which works for both of us would probably be via BTag but the choice is yours. My tag is Winterwake#2299

NEWS JUST IN!
After conflict with the Alliance fleet the vessel Banshee’s Wail and other supporting ships have gone missing! Influential leaders such as Lor’themar Theron, First Arcanist Thalyssra and others noted to have been aboard the ships that vanished! Notable nobles such as Lord Thasterios and Lady Swiftsparrow were also noted to be aboard the missing ships though no word has yet reached our hub about their whereabouts nor conditions.
Forgemaster,
I am back from my… Untimely adventure. I request a time to continue our trade talks and to collect my weaponry. Do send a letter to my address provided below.
-C. Swiftsparrow.
News: Yih’s Ghostforge is temporarily CLOSED due to a workshop fire combined with the order backlog, and will be so until further notice.

The fire damaged many tools and reagents, but soon the workshop will be open to commission once more!

Hello Yin, I wouldn’t call myself an avid fan or wanderer of the forums thus why it’s taken me so long to take notice of this project.
I’d just like to start with the fact that I think its WONDERFUL what you’re doing here and given your association to Morgaid’s list things ought to taken a sudden up turn in regards to your revenue of customers.
As such I was hoping we could talk via Discord, if only because its quicker and more private than an open forum! My name is ‘The Lich#8745’ and I hope to hear back from you…
Maybe we can HAMMER out a deal, alright you’ve got premission to shoot me.

Forgemistress Yih,
I understand an accident in your smithy has flared you out of business for some time. If you require some assistance, I’d like to stop by and lend a pair of idle hands for work. If possible, I’d like to discuss a bit of work for when your shop opens next.
Best

The workshop is OPEN FOR BUSINESS!
While reagents have been restocked and magical equipment painstakingly repaired, things are still quite a mess at the forge. Accordingly, for the following two weeks, orders will be by mail only.

Dear Forgemaster,
I’m sorry for your hard times. Do you have my items ready? The arm can wait as you said it requires a small surgical procedure to attune to. If it’s not ready, do not worry yourself, I can wait.
C. Swiftsparrow.
The response comes unerringly swift, obviously hastily written.
The weapons were lost in the fire, melted in a particularly nasty case of arcano-pyroclastic chain reaction that was thankfully contained by the spare example of the Storm’s Eye Orb I had atop the same drawer. I will have to start over, which will take further time.
The arm, on the other hand, is prepared. In two weeks it can be attached.

A bag comes sometime after via an arcane portal, containing a hefty amount of coins.
This should cover any extra costs needed, consider it a tip for your excellent smithing.
In the early hours of the 10th of September, roughly during the twilight of the morning a messenger of sorts would appear at the entry of Yih’s forge, a bird made of brass and upon being interacted with, a hollow cavity was exposed carrying a rolled up parchment, a letter clearly.
It read as follows;
"Greetings Yih of the Ghostforge, I am certain you’ve had many letters that began with the exaltation of your virtues and skills of which we both know are exceptional, it is for these reasons I send this missive to you now as to form a rapport and with the hopes that two of my inquiries might be fufilled.
Firstly, and the most important. How extensive would you consider your knowledge on metallurgy and more precisely, the creation of alloy substances? I have recently been experimenting with choice materials but fear the more esoteric feats of this field remain elusive to me.
Secondly, my current situation in Desolace has pitted me and mine against an assortment of enemies where traditional close quarters weapons are of little use and thus matters are steadily growing untenable. One idea that came to mind were designs similar in nature to the Shado-pans ‘dragon guns’, albeit with a twist.
If either of these two questions are within your capacities please reply with a conformation and we can go from there.
Many thanks, Obadiah Aelius.
P.S
The Imperial Dao sounds like an amazing treasure, if nothing else I would much like to hear more about it."
Finally, beneath all this existed a small design which Yih may assume was the unorthodox weapon Obadiah hinted to.
On an OOC note, this is a downright wonderful service and piece of RP you offer people Yih, keep up the good work!
This is a very interesting concept.
Matoya may be in touch in the near future.

In other news, while the forge building was being reconstructed by the local carpenters, Yih took a few weeks to travel the lands where the world’s eyes are turned - Zandalar and Kul Tiras. With diplomacy and bargaining, she has been able to add additional items to her list as a result!
Interesting rumours are also heard about Nazjatar, but Yih has no feasible way to go there, so it must wait.
