VILLAGE (Post-Ending)

Errand run, that was all it was supposed to be to be-

After finally accepting her hybrid form- she learned to actually live with herself instead of living against herself- something like that-

But who would have guessed in a village full of Tall-men, Elves, and Half foots who’d had never seen a Kobold, let alone a Beast-man before- could result in some unpleasant and straight up unkind looks from her neighbors-

finally- after a long day of buying ingredients and firewood- she looks at the last bullet on her list.

Blacksmith - new knife

She had forgotten that her knife had snapped after using it incorrectly- worst part was? She had never even stepped foot into the blacksmiths place- plus! It was at the very top of the giant hill at the very opposite end of the village!- yippee…

So, one long walk later- she makes it to the blacksmiths- pushing open the heavy door- she looks around- the place was rather dark… the sound of heavy hammers hitting metal echo throughout the building.

She walks up to what she assumes is the front desk and press a metal bell- which- made a louder noise than she expected.

DING!-

She jumped at the loud noise which came from the small bell- after gathering her senses again she sighs

Izutsumi “Hellooooo?- anybody home?-“

She pauses… leaning over the desk
