The Blacksmith

From Sean Cashman and Jarrod Passmore comes the first in a series of short stories, set in the world of the Sins of the Seven. Before, there were those who were forgotten. Darkness had come for the blacksmith, and it took no prisoners. Follow a simple man, a blacksmith, whose life has been poisoned by the ghosts of his past. With each breath, he struggles to keep them shackled inside, until all is quiet. In the dark of night, deep within the great city of iron, he lets his memories take him. He remembers everything. Everything that once was, and everything that would never be again. Everything that he was, and everything that he would become, a peaceful man who lost everything in the blink of an eye. Now, those who crossed him will know his wrath. In the fires of loss, we forge ourselves.
