Durin's Hammer
Durin's Hammer is a guild for Armoerers, Weaponcraftersn and metalsmiths or at least it started this way over the years the guild expanded in a way none would have expected as they started to encompass cartography and exploration as well. You see Durin's Hammer has two sides the smiths run by Durin Hammerson and the explorers run by his wife Eleanor Stirgen, many say this change is what saved the guild as Eleanor's sweet and gentle nature brought a much-needed juxtaposition from Durin's loud and brash ways. Not only this but it expanded what can be offered not only bringing new jobs to explorers but also offering tips and advice to traveling adventures. Rumor has it the guild was just started as a way to try to spite Hayden Hillshadow Lycia's Chancellor by creating a larger guild due to an old dispute, now while it has yet to reach the size of Lycia's Stoneweavers Durins'hammer is a guild Durin can be proud of.
