"You walked through town drunk? And with a kid?"
Chrom looked towards Thran and Drayl with a strict look on his face.
"Sorry, my lord, but there was a battle I had to fight earlier and I was exhausted." Thran looked towards the ground. "I may have overdone it."
Chrom sighed. "Well, at least you weren't hurt. I can't blame you for your actions. So, Who's this kid?"
Thran patted Drayl on the back. "Meet Drayl, a skilled smith from the Deeprealm of Talonthorn. His handiwork saved my life."
"Is that so..." Chrom looked towards Drayl. "Drayl, is it? That name is unlike any I've heard before. I hear you have the skill equal to a master smith?"
Drayl nodded. "Yes, milord, and it's an honor to meet you."
Chrom nodded. "Same. Do you have an example of your handiwork to show me?"
Drayl reached under his cloak. "If you will allow me to draw it, i shall show you."
"Then you are allowed. If you truly are the smith Thran says you are, you shall be treated with great respect, Drayl."
Drayl nodded at this and unsheathed the golden blade he had forged. "It has no name yet, but this blade is my finest I've ever crafted. Does it show my skill?"
Chrom pulled out his blade, Falchion. "If it truly is a work of art, it shall withstand the Dragon's Claw. Would you mind if i test it?"
Drayl hesitated, but nodded.
Chrom swung Falchion at the blade, and a clear sound rang in the air. Drayl, Thran and Chrom all looked at the blade in surprise: not a single scratch was on it.
"Unbelievable, Falchion didn't even scratch it!" Thran yelled.
Chrom sheathed his blade and smiled. "Well, it seems a sword equal to that of Naga's claw has been crafted. Now, as to your housing here, I heard Talonthorn fell to Shades?"
Drayl nodded. "Yes milord, it has."
Chrom nodded. "Then as the sole survivor of the Deeprealm of Talonthorn, you are free to stay here. And Drayl?"
"Yeah?" Drayl was slightly confused.
"Call me Chrom. We are equals, neither of us is above the other with your consequences. Enjoy your stay in Ylisse, it's always fun to walk around town."
Drayl smiled. "Of course, Chrom. I thank you for your hospitality."
