Forged Destiny [Book 6: Ch. 9]

I'd purified my amulet, and at the same time caused it to become something that could repel her power, saving myself. But in doing so, in removing her power, I had removed the very essence that made it what it was. It felt warm on my chest, comforting, but its purpose was now to protect and to repel.

Not to change the truth, or to hide it.

I was a Blacksmith once more.

And everyone knew it.
