Hello,

I am going to start out this post very simply: We have a problem in this
realm that needs a solution as soon as possible. What is this problem? A
lack of production of steel and a high demand for product that requires
steel for its creation.

I believe that the first step in solving this problem is to create a
grouping of every forger in the realm so that we may communicate with
each other much more easily and keep a check on the distribution of
steel, which is the vital resource used for most of our jobs. Lets face
it fellow forgers, we need steel and right now we cannot easily obtain
it, and when we can the prices are _extremely_ expensive. And the way I
see it, the situation is just going to get worse. We must all get
together and solve this problem.

I have sent a string of messages to the Divinites on this matter,
explaining that the output of steel must be increased or else us forgers
will find ourselves even more incapable of keeping up with the demand in
this supply and demand economy. I have had to turn down many people
personally when they ask for a simple item like a tower shield because I
do not possess the steel. For me and many others, forging is our main
source of income, and without the proper resources we cannot function.

I urge that every forger send me a message with their skillrank in
forging and if they want to join this clan or not. If I am successful in
my attempts of creating this clan I will then proceed to convince the
Divinites that we are serious in our proposal and seriously require more
steel in the realms. I would hate to think that you forgers do not wish
to solve this severe problem, therefore I assume all of you shall
message me.

Thank you,

Alcadizaar
