*Torgrim gulps*
Torgrim: Aurelia huh, been waiting follow me kiddo.
Levi: okay then. *follows Torgrim*
*Torgrim unveils the armor. At first glance, the armor is matte black not glossy, not ornamental. But under light, faint crimson veins run beneath the surface like cooling lava trapped in obsidian. The metal isn't smooth steel. It's layered darkened alloy folded with emberstone dust, giving it a subtle glow when mana flows through it. The breastplate bears a minimal crest A rising flame shaped like a crown the sigil of House Ashbourne. The pauldrons curve sharply, shaped like overlapping scorched feathers.The gauntlets are reinforced at the knuckles, engraved with ancient dwarven runes for heat resistance and mana conduction.The greaves are lighter, even then its Durable*
Levi: W-Woah this is Awesome Mr Torgrim.
Torgrim: I was wondering why Ms. Aurelia ordered an Armor, didn't knew it was for you.
Levi: Y-yeah i was suprised to dhe got an armor for me.
Torgrim: well enough of that I dall this masterpiece Emberguard.
Levi: Thats kind off lame but Good enough.
Torgrim: You make up a name then, scumbag.

Levi: Alright then. *wears the Emberguard armor* Fuck i look sick in this. *walks out*

*Below them, stretching across the valley, Ravenholt's army moved like a dark tide banners snapping in the wind, black and crimson against the pale sky.*
*Soldiers shifted nervously, scared of course*
*a large man broad shoulders, weathered frame, built by years of armor rather than vanity. His hair is iron-gray, cut short in a soldier's practicality. A thin scar runs from the corner of his left brow down to his cheekbone, pale against sun-darkened skin.*
Captain: oh shit here he comes, everyone salute
