Forger's Circle 8-18-2003

Over the summer of the Year of the Rebuilding Soulthief became the first dreamer with the art of Forge Talisman, though he did not own the title of "Junior Dreamsmith." To stem the flow of dreamers learning the art, and to maintain the same high standards for students that followed, a Forger's Circle was created. The Elder Tzintha moderated Circle meetings, and the few Junior Dreamsmiths gathered to vote and approve tasks for the learning of the art.

Kard, finally arrived at his task's completion, after many months of studying under the Dreamsmith Balthiir, approached Tzintha and the Forger's Circle. He was approved, but requested that he be granted the art in a public ceremony where his friends could look on. Little did he realize that for some unknown reason the Junior Dreamwright Kelrith would grant him Sixth Sphere instead of Forge Talisman; and a mysterious woman named Catherine would promptly steal him away from center stage and hold him captive for many weeks.

The recent introduction of Forge Talisman and the advancements of dreamers to sixth sphere introduced great controversy and debate in the City. Domination and Magerum were the first self-proclaimed "Dark Dreamsmiths," teaching Forge Talisman freely to protest the Forger's Circle; teachers and taskers called for equality and balance in work and rewards. While Free Spirit ranks erupted in dissent, a timid Elder confronted the crowds and attempted to restore order. This Elder was called Fre'y, a vestige from before The Great Loss, he was two trapped together within a single avatar.
