Wen was overwhelmed by the sudden offer from Salvator, but with a suggestion from Valerian, he agreed and took away all the ores and metal blocks back to the backyard of their house.
The process was quick. Salvator was kind enough to lend them his cart. Valerian and Wen took three trips to move all the ores. After they were done, Wen asked, "What now?"
Valerian replied, "Segregate these blocks."
Wen was surprised and asked, "How do you do that?"
Valerian beckoned him to come closer and pick up the ore, and he then told Wen about the characteristics to identify the ore. Wen nodded and carefully heard everything. He has always wanted to learn to forge. The knowledge that Valerian passed onto him was not available to him anywhere else.
