After Marcus had given Clarisa her new swords a bit of fanfare erupted between her and her friends as they rushed over and asked to look at the swords all taking turns examining them, some with an ugly look of greed on their faces (namely Cain).
While that was happening Sir Kase came up to Marcus surprising him a bit and said, "My that was some fine work you did on those swords Lady Irene. I am surprised that I have not heard of you or your family. Are you perhaps the first in your line to become such a talented forgemaster and might I ask which family it is you serve under if I am not being to forward?"
Surprised by the sudden interest that Sir Kase had, Marcus was caught off guard especially by his line of questioning, but after taking a moment to gather his thoughts responded saying, "Actually, I only recently obtained my title and I do not work under or for any other family. I am, however, the newest apprentice for Thabon at the Blazegram forge, maybe you have heard of him."
