After telling Marcus he needed to advance his skills at forging before he would take him as an apprentice, Thabon began walking away heading back to his own personal forge.
However, while Thabon was not going to personally teach Marcus right now, he had at least instructed his disciple Gurrom to show Marcus the basics.
Looking at Gurrom expectantly Marcus said, "So where do we start."
Gurrom sighed since he had been given some unexpected work he did not want to deal with, but the master's orders were absolute.
"The first thing we are going to do is have you watch me forge a sword and then you can try to emulate me afterwards. However, it is already late so you must be tired, why don't you come back tomorrow, and we can get started then."
Unfortunately for Gurrom who was trying to have the evening to himself, Marcus had already gotten engrossed in learning and was not going to stop any time soon unless he had to.
