Caoin watched the woman as she continued to work on the dagger that had been ordered. Eventually, the woman left her work station and approached another employee of the Ironworks in order to ask for his help. This didn’t seem to bother Caoin, it probably happened often in the profession, considering there were probably many people with varying level of skill in different parts of the processes that were used to create the blades. And it would seem that Caoin was right in this assumption as the two metalworkers worked out a deal to help eachother with their projects. The man would help the woman now and she would help him with something later. This sort of trade off of assistance or work happened often enough in almost all professions. The Drykas girl remained where she was standing until the woman had gotten her help from the man and return to her own station, where she placed the blade on the anvil and let it sit to cool down.
Caoin wondered how long this would take, and if she would be able to speak to the woman during this time. Maybe have some conversation. It didn’t seem likely, since the woman was pretty focused on her work. Caoin didn’t want to say anything to break the silence either, since the woman had asked not to be disturbed. It was a rather awkward position to be in, not knowing when she could speak or not. In the end, Caoin decided to simply keep her mouth shut until the woman addressed her specifically, rather than risking the chance of incurring the woman’s wrath. Distracting her with idle chatter could also lead to the woman to possibly losing her focus and making a mistake in her work on the blade, since she could be thinking about everything she still had left to do to work on the weapon.
