Forging Ahead

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* As your reputation continues to grow, it seems even your guildmates have come to covet your wares. However, the forgemaster does not expect you to furnish your guildmates with the tools they seek; rather, he would have you craft a single wrapped crowsbeak hammer of impeccable quality to serve as a model for the other smiths. When it is ready, deliver it to Brithael for inspection.
* Though Brithael briefly jests that your hammer might serve to discourage your forgemates from pursuing their craft, it is clear that he hopes your work will instead inspire others to follow in your footsteps and become better blacksmiths. Only time will tell if your forgemates will rise to the challenge.
※The next blacksmith quest will be available from Brithael upon reaching level 45.
==Objectives==
* Deliver a wrapped crowsbeak hammer to Brithael.

Brithael 	Ye know, [Player Name], the contracts ye've helped the guild secure ought to make us a fortune─if we can find the hands to keep up with demand, that is!
Brithael 	Quite a name ye've made fer yerself in the process. Ye've got yer head in the forge, so ye don't hear what I do.
Brithael 	All over the ports I hear the chatter o' sailors an' merchants extollin' the fabled wares from [Player Name]'s forge. An' I assure ye they ain't alone!
Brithael 	Hells, it's gotten to the point where half yer fellow smitties are askin' that ye forge their smithin' tools! As if ye've time to make 'em one by one!
Brithael 	So I told 'em the most they could hope fer would be one wrapped crowsbeak hammer, a true example o' shinin' excellence to which all of its kind would be held. What say ye, lass/lad? Reckon ye can do yer forgemates this favor?
 	
Brithael 	All I'm askin' fer is a single wrapped crowsbeak hammer─o' the finest quality, o' course─so I can show yer fellow smitties how it's done.
Brithael 	By Byregot's beard! Who'd've thought that the brutish tools o' force could possess such beauty!
Brithael 	The hammer's claw evokes the elegance an' ruthless efficiency of a golden beak pluckin' worms from the ground.
Brithael 	An' it's flawlessly counterbalanced asymmetrically by the face...
Brithael 	Not in me wildest forgin' fantasies could I ever envision layin' hands or eyes on such a perfect hammer.
Brithael 	...Hells, I reckon it's too perfect to show to that lot. To look upon the dauntin' heights o' such peak perfection would surely discourage even the boldest o' buddin' blacksmiths.
Brithael 	On the other hand, it ought to put those uppity smitties in their place! Besides, it'd be a crime to keep this hammer hidden away from the world.
Brithael 	With any luck, it'll serve as inspiration to yer forgemates, an' maybe even motivate one to follow in yer footsteps!
