Keep Kama and carry on

[Doji Sakura]

Now she looked happy, bowing deeply.

"Hai, thank you sensei!"

[Kokyou]

Kokyou comes closer to take another look. "The silver be indeed a fine addition, I was sure about it then, even surer now. Splendid work, popp--" He clears his throat since the sensei is there and corrects.

"Outstanding work, Doji--chan." He bows in his flourished style. "Now that I see 'em done. I can nah accept such fine items t' be taken from thar creator. It wouldna be fair."

[Doji Sakura]

"Huh? Oh" Sakura nodded "but I made it for you, so it's for you."

[Kokyou]

He shakes his head, "'tis like paintin' a picture. Ye paint someone else on it, but 'tisn't mighty thars be it? 'tis fer everyone else t' look at 'n appreciate the skill o' the artist. I could nah that take from ye."

[Doji Sakura]

"I couldn't do the weapons justice though. My skills are in making them, in your hand they can be used for what they're supposed to be used for" Sakura smiled "weapons for a captain, ne?"

[Kokyou]

"Yaar, These are the..." He looks to the sensei and completes, "tools... t' reap the bountiful harvest o' the Fortunes, aye."

Kokyou bows to the little Doji. "Thank ye, poppet. I am honored."

[Doji Sakura]

"I'm honoured to get a chance to create them. It was fun! You'll have to come tomorrow to officially accept them though Kokyou-san" Sakura moved to wrap the kama up in a bundle "I'll polish them and make sure to doublecheck. If you come along tomorrow morning when I'm normally working in here I'll be able to hand them over then."

[Kokyou]

"I am happy that ye had fun. I'll be here on the morrow." He bows again and puts the protective gear to its place before leaving.

[Doji Sakura]

"Oh...hai" Sakura bowed to Kokyou "see you tomorrow Kokyou-san!"

She looked at the sensei then back at the work.

"I guess I should clean up. I hope I did not disturb too much"

[Vutall]

"You are doing fine, the forge rarely gets used here from my understanding."

[Doji Sakura]

"Hai, I suspected as much. It's a shame, because it's lovely" Sakura sighed "I was going to try and make it look nicer, perhaps put some windchimes up and other safe things. Maybe that'll help."

[Vutall]

"That would be very lovely, Doji-san. Just know that Hirosaka only normally has this dojo active for a week or two out of the year for training their emergency soldiers. Otherwise, it is the lodging for the small handful of city guards. They rarely have need of a smith, as their weapons and armor are never tested, and they have no horses to shoe. The merchants and residents use the smiths in the market quarter for their needs."

[Doji Sakura]

"That's...wrong though. If you leave a forge so long it'll ruin it. People should use this, it's such a lovely forget" Sakura looked saddened to hear it had been so neglected, turning to look at the embers in the furnace "I think more people should use it. Maybe the Kakita and the Imperial families could make a deal so that this place remains well looked after."

[Vutall]

"If you wish to be so ambitious, it would be a good goal for a young courtier."

[Doji Sakura]

"I'm an artist though" Sakura said with a small frown "can I do such things? Hmm....I'll try. Thank you sensei" she bowed to the sensei.

[Vutall]

"Art moves people into action sometimes more than words, Doji-san."
