From the journal of Ugarlesh, Forge-Wife
by Ugarlesh
An Orcish mother's thoughts on her daughter's future as a Forge-Wife
- "I caught Lagabesh lurking around the forge and asked her what she thought of the helm I just finished. She stuck out her tongue and scurried off giggling. She's that age where she wants to rebel against anything her mother likes, but I see her stalking around the forge more and more when I work, watching me craft good, strong weapons and armor for our warriors. I even caught her admiring the axe I forged for the chieftain's oldest, running her fingers over the blade and tracing the engravings. She's not quite ready to do more than simple tasks around the forge, but she will make some Orc a fine Forge-Wife one day; I can already tell."
