I will never fit in
The rhythmic echo of shoes against hard stone was the only sound to accompany Kore as she made her way up Apopo. There was only the occasional sound of birds to break the silence. In this moment, she felt miles away from anyone else, and the woman felt like that wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
Isolation could be productive when handled right, and for now Kore needed to be productive. She needed to focus and find a supply for her coming needs. Once upon a time she could use the old man for any of her metal needs, but she couldn't depend on him when she opened her forge. No… it was time for her to find her own way in the world.
This was probably going to be her best bet, so Kore fell to her knees and got to work examining the rubble. Hopefully there was some surface level minerals that she could use to judge quality, she needed to find something usable for there to be any hope of continuing with her dream.

"Come on, Lomares. Push it, can't run a forge without metal…"
Step after step, she moved higher up the dormant volcano. Away from the brush and to a more rocky area.This was probably going to be her best bet, so Kore fell to her knees and got to work examining the rubble.

That's one of my best qualities
