[B]GreyAnvil, Ashbridge[/b]
There was an unusual hustle and bustle around the bridge today. Slaves and workers alike helped haul out large sheets of iron. Each one requiring several strong men to transport. The sheets stacked quickly and became a grid like maze. More than the usual amount of thick black smoke poured out of the chimneys that poked out from the mountain side. Inside every smithy was filled with people all working diligently. Their sound drowning out all other noises. Occasionally a woosh of air blew past from the massive bellows as they stoaked the many fires.
With all the commotion the temperature was unbearably hot in the hall. Modesty was thrown aside as the workers of GreyAnvil worked in almost nude conditions. They worked in long shifts around the clock producing swords, spears, arrow heads, but mostly the massive iron sheets. A burly man wiped the sweat that soaked his brow as he waved over a few of the slaves that had been resting. They grabbed the warm metal hefting it off of the table and began to shuffle their way out joining in the long line of people carrying out the plates.

The Steady clopping was muffled by his intense concentration. He tried to keep his mind cleared but the little things kept standing out such As the smooth wood of the bow, the cut of the string. Then He released, the arrow flew with incredible speed covering the distance to the elivated straw target in the flash of an eye. He used his legs to guide the elk in a large circle, as he reached back and knocked another arrow. He was surrounded by at least twenty more riders as they all practiced their mounted archery. After years of practice they had all excellent aim. The war chief had them doing strange drills quickly changing course moving in large circles, but when firing they'd get closer and as soon as they needed to reload the spread out. It was an interesting site, confusing from the outside as they had three rings of riders, moving erratically weaving and firing.
They practiced on a mock fort, straw soldiers armed with old armor and weapons guarded its top. The archers though, roughly 100 meters away at anygiven time, usually scored hits though not always kill. 

[B]TheDescended, Lowlands[/b]
There was a corp of 50 men standing in a group, they were all casually talking. They had been transported to the lowlands for some reason though little was known a out this mission. Most of them looked muscle bound from years of laboring. The men around them were consta fly training be it sword, spear or other it was always moving. "What do you think they've got us doin? Whyre we down I'm this shit hole" his voice was nasaly and high, an odd characteristic for some one from these lands. But these rarities did happen. By now none of them tool notice to the GreyAnvils constructing the frames for carts though they stopped short of completion. There seemed to be hundreds of them all gathered down here members from all the clans save the descended they were the only representatives.

They laughed and joked as they worked, carving the strips of meat thinly so that it smoked evenly. They often cured the meat this way so that it could be eaten many days later. This season alone they had made more than enough for the next three winters. But only a little went up to the mighty Ashbridge halls to be numbered and distributed. Most of it was being kept at an undisclosed location. The military would show up escorting slaves and take it away. Though in recent times they had began to help move massive amounts of iron plates from the mountain they began amassing at the bottom of the trail though stories say that the top is so covered that one has to navigate it with a ball of string. During their off time they watched men scurry about making odd contraptions. They stood taller than two men and had side skirts so that only a mans head was visible. While the very top could lay down allowing for a man to peep out. The sounds of hammers echoed day in and day out as these devices bare wood began to be covered with the metal sheets. Making slightly misshaped armor for these portable wall like devices. It was confusing to most if not all as to what the purpose of these walls were. Another parculular thing was that they now we're saving all of the animal lardIn massive barrels.
