People are unsure of this one. It took weeks to renovate this building. While they hired a number of locals, they brought in gnomes and a couple of dwarves to build large ovens or furnaces. The locals do know that there are a group of gnomes and dwarves that run the place. They have also hired locals to manage the fires, pull coal, and be apprentices. They work on large scale deals, not directly competing with the local smiths. Rumour has it they are part of the Grimm Consortium out of Ulek. Their item board lists exceptionally made weapons. The face of the operation is Lady Nyx, a female gnome, and her partner Lady Gildiz, a female elf. Sometimes an elf named Phira Grimm does the rounds throughout the community, mostly through the slums. She always travels with 4 elven warriors.
