Lind was sweating heavily with his top half exposed. It was cheaper to not replace his robes every time he suffered failure so he simply wore durable pants that still needed regular replacement, but it was cheaper. After his success in his testing over 3 weeks ago, he assumed it would just come to him in this new profession, but he was very wrong.
He had mimicked the 2 items he forged before. The sword was a custom job that he could try to fulfill by characteristics and he did so very well. The mid-grade 2 staff was a knock off of his current staff only.
Without a clear example, Lind found forging to be a trying task. Grade 1 metals melted as easily as before and Delenn had praised his skill there as Master Cain once had, but after that he ran into failure after failure.
