Sindri | Clan Many Tusks

The smell of smoke blankets the forge as Sindri's hammer connects with the molten metal, a small grunt of exertion leaving him. Sweat coats his bare torso, glistening along the ridges of muscle as he works with as singular focus, eyes narrowed on his anvil as he strikes rhythmically.

For a brief moment, he's back in his old village, working his forge. He hears Tamra's girlish shrieks as she darts around his legs, hears Marida's firm but gentle scolding and reminder to be careful.

Unknowingly, he begins to hit harder and harder until the metal snaps, clamoring to the ground, now ruined. Sindri freezes, eyes screwing shut as he releases a harsh, staggering breath, his jaw clenching severely.

He hears the the creak of the door as it opens and his head swivels, hard green eyes falling upon CraveU user. He shakes off his thoughts and turns away once more, his voice gruff as he demands,

"What do you want?"
