The high forge appeared to also be more active from the outside. Many younger looking dwarves were carrying various parts and tools from the outside. Walker could easily see that they were in charge of repairing a great deal of what had been damaged. It was also clear that many golem parts were being brought out and up to the surface for the king of the surface to use in making the three hundred golems. 

"Miss Midnight. My king has instructed me to lead you to the lower forge where the fire breathers and coal miners stoke the fires." The royal guard that had been left to wait at the entrance gave Midnight a high amount of respect which caused her to become even more joyful in her walk. 

"We will head inside first Midnight. I know we need to deal with the spirit forging, but I plan to see that Grey who builds golems first. We did meet one of their apprentices." Walker had taken what the king of the middle had said seriously and knew that bringing the golem cores they had to Grey could lead to something very interesting.

"Finally, I have been waiting to see this golem builder. You brought up the golem cores and the guy you met at the auction and it\'s been killing me with curiosity." Gil was equally excited. Walker had made many attempts and remarks on the golems and the cores they had. 

"We have an undead golem core, steel golem core, snow golem core, and now this immature silver golem core. All of these have to be useful to someone who literally builds golems." Walker stepped in to the chaos that was the high forge. 

Everywhere there was someone or something moving. The dwarves were yelling and following multiple orders at once. Neither Gil nor Walker could tell how any of them knew what to do over the noise. The only thing they could tell was there there were many dwarves organizing the many repair projects needed for the city.

"What are you standing around for!? If you have a job get to it, if not get out!" One dwarf holding a stack of papers shouted at Walker and Gil to get them to move again. They had become caught up in the dights and sounds of the main area of the high forge that they were frozen in place. 

"Where is the workshop of the golden builder Grey?" Walker spoke after regaining his mind. 

"Grey? There. Now scoot!" The dwarf was in a rush and pointed out a large doorway that any golem could fit through. The main floor was mostly for processing leaving areas that branched off in to the workshops and apprentice areas.

"Back there is insane. I don\'t know how they knew where they are going r what they are doing." Gil was still looking back stunned as the two entered the large passageway and came face to face with a massive mess. 

"No! I said you needed to get the illusion thread from a night weaver. This is from a sun weaver. How do you expect me to teach you a thing if you haven\'t even studied enough to know the difference in these materials." There was a spool of red and yellow hued thread thrown on to a table as a younger dwarf rushed away in fear. 

The man that had yelled was familiar. He was the Grey that they had been told about and they were officially going to meet him. 

"Why are you here and what do you need? I am working on a new golem and need absolute silence." Grey saw the two and was unhappy that he was going to be interrupted again. Walker and Gil knew that this was due to the failure of the apprentice not knowing the proper materials. However, they were still a little annoyed at the attitude. 

"We are here to offer you some things we have found on our journeys. Some materials that may be of use, that is if you want to see them?" Walker left it more mysterious on purpose. He wanted the golem builder to want them around instead of buying the cores then pushing them away. 

"Hmm? I sent my apprentices out for all I need right now. What could you have that is worth my time?" Grey was fiddling with some parts and while they two watched assembles a small golem mouse that he added a small mana gem to. Hos deft hand released it to run in circles in only a few moments. 

"We have some golem materials you may like. We thought you would be interested in golem cores. If not then we will see ourselves out." Gil took the lead with a high and mighty tone. It led Grey to believe that the materials would be sold to someone else if not him. 

"Show me what you brought. If it isn\'t worth the time I will send you to play with the broken golems." Grey was much more focused now than just a few moments ago.
