Eisen stood up from his bed in the Inn after lying down in his capsule again literally a few seconds ago. That conversation with Benji not too long ago helped Eisen calm down a little bit. After that whole bunch of trouble that Melody is going to cause, he wasn't sure whether or not Sophia might actually bring that boy that Melody kept saw her with. Benji told him that he talked to Sophia about him a few times before, and the boy was apparently even her best friend, so it may be possible that she would bring him along.
Eisen just wanted to know if Benji knew anything about the situation, since he knew that he and Sophia talked quite a lot.
But when he was filled in about everything by his grandson, Eisen managed to relax and took his time getting groceries and something from Wawa to eat for lunch.
Now that he was back in the game, it was time to make his way back over to Denmir's smithy to prepare all of the things he needed to finish off the carriage as soon as possible.
He greeted Bree who was already waiting for Eisen, and they made their way to the restaurant to eat some breakfast. Since there wasn't anything else to do, and Jyuuk was at work in real life, Eisen and Bree made their way to "Dwarf's Delight".
They stepped inside and walked to the back of store to meet with Denmir, who rushed over to them the moment that he laid eyes on them. "Aye, Good mornin' Eisen, good mornin' lass! And good mornin' ta the three of you as well, of course!" Denmir exclaimed happily to greet the small group that just entered the workshop.
This was quite unusual for him already, as usual he would just wave at them when they came in and basically ignored them for the rest of their stay while he got back to his own work. But this time around, he really just dropped what he was doing to sprint over to Eisen.
And the old man guessed it was kind of understandable that he would be somewhat excited, seeing how Eisen was literally a legend amongst legends within this world.
Before Eisen could react though, Denmir already continued. "Is there anythin' I can help ya with today?" He asked, but Eisen shook his head with a soft chuckle.
"No, no, I don't really need much help. I just have to make some small steel parts for a carriage. Is it fine if I borrow the same forge as usual?"
"Of course, of course! Go ahead! Erm, if ya need me, I'll be working on my own items! Just call me, ye 'ear?" Denmir close to yelled this out happily while Eisen began walking over to his usual forge and changed into his blacksmithing outfit in a small, separate changing room.
After he got back out and placed his clothes next to Bree's backpack, Eisen made his way to the storage room to get a few ingots of steel, immediately getting to work when he brings them back to the forge.
He made a few different simple angled metal plates in large quantities to hold the parts together, before then making four long rectangles which he connected at each end to create something like a loop. Eisen made sure that it was the right size, repeatedly measuring the diameter so that it was just a tiny bit smaller than the actual wheel's.
Once he finished that, Eisen thought about stopping and getting back to the Woodworker's to continue building the carriage, but instead he chose to make some other items first. They weren't anything amazing, just a frisbee-sized steel version of the coin hanging around Eisen's neck, as well as some smaller decorative items to attach to the inside of the carriage here and there.
Excited to see that he could finally start assembling the carriage, Eisen quickly moved on and packed up the items he just made, changing back into his regular crafting outfit before he and Bree decided to go back to the Woodworker's.
