Steps
The Uninspired Blacksmith
Dramm looks utterly distressed and seems to be in a real bind. When you approach him, he is muttering to himself. He complains that he is completely devoid of any inspiration while trying to forge weapons alone.
Talk to the uninspired Dramm
Dramm shares the tale of his close friend, Amery, a man who once worked the forge alongside him in the Abyssal Reach. Amery desperately wanted to become a master smith like Vronn, competing in numerous forging tournaments, yet he was always stopped short as the runner-up. Tragically, after one crushing defeat, he vanished without a trace, leaving Dramm wondering if his friend completely abandoned his forging dreams. Thinking back on this fills Dramm's heart with deep emotion; even if Amery is still alive, he must be weathered by old age by now, and they likely wouldn't even recognize each other if they met.
Recovering the Blueprint
Something seems to be hidden near Brandrgarde's Exile Mines. Let's hope it can help Dramm spark his inspiration.
Head to Brandrgarde's mining quarter and search for the forging blueprint
The Penitents are truly relentless nuisances. You barely managed to pry the blueprint and journal from their clutches, yet both items are already heavily ruined.
The Fractured Records
Even though the journal and blueprint are ruined and battered, take them back to Dramm anyway.
Talk to Dramm
You hand the recovered sketch and hand-written journal over to Dramm. Although the sword sketch is still barely legible, the parchment of the journal is severely damaged and blurred beyond recognition, causing Dramm's spirits to plummet. Seeing him completely helpless, you decide to seek out Dew to see if there is any way to fix this.
Reward: Holy Sith Astrolabe
Gyldenblod Trail
Dramm is at his wit's end; it seems your only choice left is to consult Dew for a solution.
Talk to Dew
Dew suggests she might be able to channel memories from Gyldenblod and use them to reconstruct the journal's lost words. But where on earth can you find monsters that have crossed paths with this journal?
Retrieving the Gyldenblod
Gather some Gyldenblod from the Penitents of Brandrgarde and try to restore the journal.
Kill 10 Penitent(s)
You have finally wrested Gyldenblod from the walking corpses. Let's hope it'll be enough to restore the journal's contents.
Restoring the Journal
Deliver the gathered Gyldenblod to Dew.
Talk to Dew
Leveraging the power of the Gyldenblod, Dew successfully uncovers the missing text of the journal, unveiling Amery's past. Dew mentions she will transcribe the contents in full and leaves it to you to deliver the pages back to Dramm.
A Follower's Diary
Against all odds, Dew actually uses the power of Gyldenblod to restore the journal's contents. But what exactly is that "tragic story" within? Go find Dramm to read it together.
Talk to Dramm
Every single word in the journal is written in anguish. For a devout follower, having one's faith shattered must be the most brutal cruelty imaginable—especially when broken by the very person they revered the most.
The Blade Endures, the Dream Lives On
The fate of Dramm's dearest friend leaves him frozen in shock and silence. Speak with him to check on how he is doing.
Talk to Dramm
After hearing Werner's account, Dramm sinks into a long, reflective silence, his heart heavy with emotion. Yet, Dramm profoundly admires his friend's unyielding resolve, wishing him nothing but success on his journey to chase his forging dreams.
