The Sage of Einar

In a specially built workshop, Einar who had ski goggles was doing the first test to shape the glass.

"Seren and Alec, the glass already seems to be completely melted. We have to prepare the tools to be able to shape it.

Alec also remembers that you are going to start shaping it using a metal tube, remember the training that I suggested you do, and for nothing in the world are you going to breathe the hot air as it can burn your lungs.

Remember to blow little by little so that the glass expands inside the bottle mold that we made of metal. "

Hearing these words, Seren began to prepare the tweezers, while Alec was holding a metal tube.

"Herald Einar, I'm ready to blow the glass, I just hope that if something happens to me, my daughter and wife can have their freedom."

Einar upon hearing Alec's words only shook his head "You are not going to die Alec since what you are going to do is relatively simple and should not represent a real danger if you do it carefully.

But what you have asked of me is already a reality if you can become one of the people who can handle the glass or if you suffer an injury in the process.

Your family will be completely liberated and could live carefree in the tribe, at least until your daughter is old enough to work, but that does not mean that your wife does not continue to receive support to support herself.

Now since you are ready, first pour the glass in a liquid state into this mold where you will have to slowly insert the tube so that later you can start blowing it and create an air bubble.

Remember, only a little air because otherwise it will return and it can burn your esophagus and lungs, which would be something quite painful and in the worst case, something that would leave you food because you will suffer but without the possibility of dying. "

Alec took a deep breath and looking seriously at Einar he nodded. Seeing that Alec was ready, Einar used a pair of tongs to remove the stone container where the glass was from the oven.

He subsequently poured the glass into a small iron mold and looked at Alec.

"Now Alec puts the tube on and starts to blow carefully."

Alec at this point placed his iron tube inside the mold and began to blow slowly but steadily when Einar saw that the glass in the mold was already fully formed.

He opened it using tweezers and quickly directed Alec to put the glass in the next mold. When he opened the mold that was shaped like a bottle, he gave Alec an indication to place it and start blowing.

When Alec began to blow into the mold, he felt everything that began to blow into the glass begin to take shape, so when he looked at Einar's signal he stopped and removed his mouth from the metal tube.

At this point, Einar removed the parts from the mold, revealing a simple green glass bottle.

"Alright we're almost done now Alec places the glass bottle in the oven for a few moments, Seren prepares the iron pole so that the glass bottle can be held from the back.

Later when you finish, I will use some tweezers to start giving the shape you need to have the bottle in the front, you do not have to worry about anything since I will do that process completely.

Now Alec takes the bottle out of the oven. "

Alec, following Einar's instructions, quickly took the bottle out of the oven and placed it in front of him, then Seren took the opportunity to put the metal stick in the back of the bottle.

At that moment Einar approached and using tweezers cut the connection that the bottle had with the glass tube because the glass had already started to cool it did not deform.

"Seren puts the bottle back in the oven and when I tell you you take it out so I can start fixing the bottle cap."

Seren, nodding, put the glass bottle in the oven and took the moment to wipe the sweat from her forehead.

"To think that the process of making glass bottles is quite complicated, I thought it would be a little faster, but from what I realize it will take a little while here to shape the glass."

Einar just laughed at Seren's words "This process is only a test of what I am doing, but it should not be the way we are working in the future.

How you have been able to figure out how to shape the bottles is not quite complicated, but nevertheless, they have to follow an order and have certain requirements.

But it is nothing that cannot be automated in the future, basically, I can create a machine that allows being 5 bottles or even 10 in a few minutes if I can find a way to inject enough air into them.

It would just be a trial-and-error process, but speaking of the test, how did you feel blowing the glass, Alec. "

Alec scratched his head and smiled nervously. "I felt quite nervous with the fact that if something happened I could die painfully, but luckily none of that happened and everything went well.

Although I must admit that thanks to the experience that I am generating right now, perhaps in the future it will not be so difficult to blow glass. "

"It is normal for you to feel that way but, as I told you, the greatest danger is that you put more air than the glass can hold because at that moment it could return.

Seren, it's time we took the bottle out of the fire. "

When he finished saying those words, Seren took the bottle out of the oven and placed it in front of Einar, who using tweezers began to shape it.

Because it was his first time doing something like molding glass, it took Einar a long time to shape the glass bottle.

After repeating the same process for half an hour, Einar managed to finish giving the bottle the last touches, so I hope it will cool down a bit before cutting the joint it had with the iron stick.

When he cut the union of the bottle, he held it using tweezers. After that, he simply took the glass bottle to construction that looked like a cement igloo to place the glass bottle inside.

Because although it did not seem to be hot, it could burn the skin so in that construction it would finish cooling before being able to use it.

After letting the glass bottle cool, Einar sighed and squeezed his hands as he was somewhat nervous.

"For a moment I thought I could break the bottle that took us so long to build. Now we just have to repeat the process and wait until the bottles are cold before we can use them.

I hope they are ready because today we have to make at least six bottles before we can rest. "

Seren and Alec just looked at each other before starting to drink some water to cool their throats since they would be working for a few hours.

At night when the three of them were quite tired, Einar who was sitting on a chair looked at Alec and Seren with a smile.

"They should be happy as we have created the first glassware on the island and in the tribe.

It is also not to brag, but I can bet that no Nordic tribe has ever built glass on their own, which is why we are pioneers in this noble work.

Now we only have to train some craftsmen and slaves so that glass little by little becomes a common element in the tribe, not to mention that it would be something quite functional for trade.

I can already imagine selling liquor in glass bottles, it's going to be something completely new.

But I think the first thing we should do is check out the first glass bottles we've made. "

When he finished saying those words, Einar got up and walked towards the concrete structure where the glass bottles were cooling.

He opened the iron cap and using tweezers took out the first bottle they had made. Looking at it through the light of a torch he realized that the glass they had made was of quality.

'It's really sad that I don't remember how to make transparent glass, but that doesn't matter since I can make glass and that's the important thing.

Even if it's green in color, but it looks really pretty. '

After looking for a short time, the bottle led her over to where Seren and Alec were sitting.

"This is the fruit of our work, a beautiful green glass bottle, I think because we let it cool it should already be at room temperature but there is only one way to know."

At that moment Einar took a jug of water from the table and began to wet the glass bottle. Luckily for Einar, the bottle was already cold, so the water did not cause any problem in the bottle.

"Well, from what I can see one morning and one full afternoon is enough to chill the glass, I think this little event deserves to be celebrated properly.

Alec brings the herbal liqueur.. We will debut this glass bottle. "
