"Friends'll betray ye, lovers'll leave ye, but yer hammer'll never do ye wrong."

The young forgemaster of Naldiq & Vymelli's, Brithael was thrust into his position by other smiths who had no love of administrative work. Possessed of a strong sense of duty, the Midlander has put his best foot forward in fulfilling his responsibilities with—more or less—a smile on his face. The thirty-year-old also enjoys his ale a little too much, and can oft be found deep in his cups at the Drowning Wench.

— In-game description

Brithael is a Hyur found in Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks.

What will you ask?

What do you do here?
What is blacksmithing?
Nothing.

Selecting "What do you do here?"

Brithael: Oh, not much. I'm jus' forgemaster o' this here guild. I ain't one to stand on ceremony, though, so ye can jus' call me Brithael.
Brithael: As fer what ol' Brithael does... Well, what I enjoy doin' is lookin' after the new recruits, trainin' 'em an' whatnot.
Brithael: 'Course, as an employee o' Naldiq & Vymelli's, I've got a whole mess of other duties besides. Fer instance, makin' sure contracts get fulfilled an' securin' new ones.
Brithael: Fortunately, Forgemaster H'naanza o' the Armorers' Guild usually handles that shite. Else I wouldn't have time to keep me thirst at bay.

Selecting "What is blacksmithing?"

Brithael: Well, uh...in essence, ye take some raw ore, smelt it into a hunk o' metal, heat it till it's bleedin' hot, then pound the hells out of it till it looks the way ye want.
Brithael: Or if yer askin' about the difference between blacksmithin' and armorin', well... Whereas armorers make armor, we smitties make weapons an' tools. We're talkin' swords an' lances, axes an' pickaxes, needles an' knives, sharp sticks...
Brithael: Well, maybe not sharp sticks. Anyway, to craft all that, ye need to know how to work all manner o' metals. Some folk think a strong arm's all it takes, but that ain't the half of it.
Brithael: Ye won't go far without the knowledge an' technique essential to the craft. That, plus hard work an' dedication—aye, all that's key to blacksmithin'.
