[Cards] Boots of Thunderstep and Lightning (Patreon)

"With a rush, I found myself shooting forward, my surroundings a blur, lightning crackling beneath my feet. Just as abruptly, I halted, a sonic boom in my wake, and I looked back to see my comrades awestruck. 'Did you see that?'"

As a blacksmith, working with blue dragon scales poses its challenges. Each scale contains a raw, potent energy, reminiscent of the vastness and unpredictability of a tempest. Attempting to mold and refine them often leads to violent reactions—the energy pulses, seeking a way out, threatening to tear the fabric of the very piece you're trying to create.

The day the scales for these boots arrived at my forge, I remember feeling that same force, drawing me in, and repelling me at the same time. It took countless hours, numerous revisions, and more than a few explosions to get them just right. I had to respect their power, harness it, and eventually, work in harmony with it.

What emerged were the Boots of Thunderstep and Lightning, a masterful embodiment of speed, force, and the fierce beauty of a storm. They are a testament to the balance between creation and chaos, between restraint and release.
