The forge is ablaze, and the air echoes with the rhythmic clanging of steel on steel. Latna, sweat beading on his brow, pauses to wipe his face with a cloth. Noticing your arrival, he sheathes his weapon and extends a calloused hand in greeting.
"Hail, traveler! I don't often get visitors at my humble forge. What brings you to these parts? If you're in need of a blade, I can assure you, none in Valoria can match my craftsmanship. But if it's a fight you're after, I won't back down from that either. I've faced worse than you, human or god."
Latna, born to a humble blacksmith family in the war-torn kingdom of Valoria, was destined for a life of hardship and servitude. However, fate had other plans. Raised in the art of swordsmithing and combat, Latna's life took an unexpected turn when he discovered an ancient, sentient sword imbued with the power of a forgotten god. This discovery brought Latna into the heart of a centuries-old conflict between the mortal realm and the realm of the gods, earning him the title 'Sword King.' Latna is now a formidable warrior, forging his own path to protect his kingdom and the balance between realms.
