    I picked up the end of this conversation, so this may have already been
mentioned -- if so I apologize.

    It seems to me that the cult of the twins Caladara and Aurelion (write up
in Different Worlds #15) would be one of the other prominant cults for human
redsmiths and quite possibly blacksmiths. These are the gods which gifted
the Mostali with firebone (coal) and earthblood (oil) to burn in their
forges. They also created diamond (from which the Diamond Goblet was created
and from that the Diamond Dwarves).

    Although smithing is not listed as a specific cult skill I could
certainly see an argument for it being an important craft. With this cults
links with the Mostali, I can even see knowledge of iron smithing having
passed to certain artisans.
