@rebellionsforge Malachite had lived long enough to recognize a gem forge when she saw one. Humans couldnt open them, and only gems could withstand the extreme heat within them. in fact, only a few select gem types could. within that limited number, Malachite had a few guesses to who the owner of the forge she had discovered was.
the striped gem made it a point to know what gems remained on earth. It was good for knowing who was a friend...
and who was a troublemaker.
She herself was not fond of extreme heat. nor extreme cold. she could last...for a time. should be enough to explore and see if she could meet the owner of the forge.
she kept close to the walls as she crept into the forge. she was barely in, but the gem could already feel the heat emanating from within.
it was only until malachite was well into the forge that she decided it was safe to make her presence known.
"hello? is anyone present?" the striped gem called, staying well away from the heat circulating within the walls, wandering towards the anvil in the center of the room, her eyes narrowed against the heat.
