The next night, as Clio drifted into slumber, sleep came easily, deep and undisturbed. In her dream she found herself wandering through an old forge with the sounds of metal being beaten on an anvil. The daylight is calming, basking down through an open window upon the hardworking woman. Her steps are guided along the cool stone floor holding a temperature that would keep her mind at ease. Surrounding her are the different work stations within which the craft would ignite and creativity would prosper.

Eventually, her steps bring her outdoors to an area of work unlike any she would have ever seen. At its heart stands a pyramid of various metals from which different craftsmen would use. Each metal taken is magically replaced by another. Surrounding the pyramid are anvils, workstations for each man and woman who decide to dedicate their knowledge to their craft. Voices of enjoyment fill the air, the clanking of metal, and the satisfactory of creativity.

Surrounding the people is a moat of lava, bubbling at a high heat for the best effectivity. The moat is split by a stone bridge for those who wish to cross without any fears. On the other side stands an angel, a man with radiance that Clio would have never expected to see within any being. His smile is firm, proud and full of dedication. He turns his back on her, tilting his head in a way to beckon her to step towards him.

Once Clio approaches, the angel places his hand over Clio's furthest shoulder. It is rough, like the hand of a hard-working craftsman. His voice, filled with valiance, as if a proud father were talking to their successful child.

"Clio, you have served The Smith well. Nothing you have done has gone unnoticed, and we are proud of your actions. Continue your works and dedication, young Clio. You are a woman of the craft."

He would turn to face her, placing a hand atop her head, gently patting her down. In that moment, her brand flared warm, then hot, yet it did not burn. Instead, bliss surged through her, spreading like fire through her veins. Her eyes would shine bright orange, and euphoria would take hold of her like a divine embrace.

When she would awake at her usual hour, the dream would fade, but the warmth of the angel's touch would linger on her cheek, slowly fading back to the cool of the waking world.
