This was gripping,I loved how you built the tension of the Order ceremony, from the chant to the restraints, making the final call of your name feel momentous.

Thanks for sharing!!

This transported me back to 2012 reading fantasy books at my local library. 📚 I felt really cool because I could hang out in the teen section for the first time that year. Thank you for bringing me back to that time through your story/words.

thank you!! I wanted to go beyond the typical “magical element” or a wand or some sort of article of clothing, and felt metal is something significant that holds a lot of memory in the gilding of it, melting and forming it to its shape, etc. there’s layers in its creation, and the fact it is held throughout history adds external layers, too!
