Kothar split apart the two parts of the mold, and the shining links and central mount for the stone fell out. The metal still shone, but had an added depth thanks to the Titanite that Kothar had added, and it was far stronger than traditional silver.
Kothar picked up a file out from amongst the tools he had bought from the Marketplace, and began to strip away the excess metal from the mold, bringing out the final shape of the necklace.
Next, he sanded down the metal, taking his time to buff every surface of the necklace smooth, it couldn't be ideal to have a rough piece of metal constantly rubbing against his bare skin.
Once he had done that, Kothar set the artifact within the central pendant housing, and with a pair of pliers, bent the prongs in place to hold the stone. The necklace was complete.
