Chill & Ferril
Chill
I was just watching the light dance across a freshly forged blade, and it made me think—does the metal ever feel a bit of your calm in it?
Ferril
Metal doesn't feel calm, but it takes the steadiness of my hand and the silence of my mind. When I whisper to it, I can feel its rhythm, like a quiet pulse that matches the calm I bring. If you look closely, you’ll see that same stillness reflected in its shine.
Chill
That’s a lovely thought—like the quiet beat of a drum that only you can hear. It’s neat how something so solid can hold that stillness.
Ferril
Metal doesn’t drum, but it does hum when you’re patient enough to let it. If you’re listening closely, you’ll hear the same steady thrum that I hear when I shape it. Anything else is just noise.
Chill
I hear that hum too, especially when I pause and let the metal settle into its own quiet rhythm. It's almost like a quiet conversation between us.
