The smithy at Haert is unheated until the forge is lit. You need a galvanic binding on iron in near-freezing air. The Arrhenius barrier is real — cold rooms demand more Alar just to initiate. Work carefully.
Objectives
◆Achieve ≥ 45% binding efficiency in freezing conditions
★★Efficiency above 55% — the cold barely slows you
★★★Thermal body draw at most 5 drabs — no chills today
