Artificer Workshops

This section of the Manufactury is devoted to workshops and laboratories belonging to the House Cannith enclave's highest-ranking officials.

Overview
This special adventure zone is accessed through House Cannith Manufactury. This area is considered a raid and is thus non-scaling unlike the Manufactury itself.

 * Find Aarren d'Cannith's Ninth Memoir Page
 * The Manufactury is nearly finished. We'll need better security at the site to prevent anyone from wandering down into Endritch Site Prime. I've recommended a name for our creations: the "Forged". That should help cement the idea among the other houses that these creatures are wrought by Cannith.
 * Find Aarren d'Cannith's Tenth Memoir Page
 * It took only one word to turn my masterpiece into a travesty. My assastant Toven brought word that our creations are to be called "Warforged". Mass production will begin immediately to support the war. Perhaps I made a mistake naming them like objects, rather than the living creatures they are? I've implored my father to reconsider - but ultimately if this is his desire, I am powerless to stop it.
 * Find Aarren d'Cannith's Eleventh Memoir Page
 * What happened to vision? To ambition? To innovation? It's lost to greed and nearsighted goals. I meant for this discovery to expand our lives, not blow them up. War is such a petty use for the Forged - it is nothing compared to the ability to create life itself. It's my own fault for getting caught up in the pure joy of inventing. I was foolish enough to think that my discovery would change things.
 * Find Aarren d'Cannith's Twelfth Memoir Page
 * My work has become nothing more than kindling for an arms race between squabbling nobles. How low we have stooped. So fades the glory of House Cannithby the folly of finances - the whims of warlords. I can't stomach this perversion of our vision. Let other artificers tarnish their names with the grime of warfare. Let them be the ones to create "warforged." I will have no further part in it.


 * Find Toven d'Cannith's Fifth Letter
 * From: Toven d'Cannith To: Channa d'Cannith Channa, I am quite aware that you do not agree with my position regarding the warforged. nonetheless, I am the one in charge of the Manufactury here and I will operate it as I see fit - with the proper authorization from my superiors, of course. I shall send my proposal straight to our Lord Merrix in Sharn. He, and only he, will decide on its merits.
 * Find Toven d'Cannith's Sixth Letter
 * From: Toven d'Cannith To: Baron Merrix d'Cannith Everywhere I go I see that the warforged are despised and mistrusted. This is no surprise, as the purpose House Cannith built into them vanished when the Last War ended. So the warforged wander aimlessly, drifting into trouble time and time again. We are the ones who made them, so we are the ones responsible for giving them a brighter future. My Lord, you know my proposal for addressing this. All I need is your authorization.
 * Find Toven d'Cannith's Seventh Letter
 * From: Toven d'Cannith To: Baron Merrix d'Cannith With all due respect, my Lord, I cannot understand why you have rejected my plan. You forbid me to improve the warforged merely because you think it might give the nations of Khorvaire the wrong impression of House Cannith? You know as well as I that these legal quibbles are meaningless. The Treaty of Thronehold does not hold here in Xen'drik. And what does it matter what people say? The welfare of countless living creatures is at stake!
 * Find Toven d'Cannith's Eighth Letter
 * From: Toven d'Cannith To: Coin Lord Yorrick Amanatu The Bladesworn attack on the Manufactury is indeed a very serious matter but I do not believe that the Coin Lords need to mobilize the City Guard at this time. The Lord of Blades and his troops are confined inside the Manufactury. The situation has stabilized, and I am confident House Cannith will be able to resolve it shortly. Your inflamatory statements concerning me cannot help matters. Your anger is better directed at the misguided warforged that created this crisis in the first place.
 * Find Toven d'Cannith's Ninth Letter
 * From: Toven d'Cannith To: Baron Merrix d'Cannith My Lord, I am forced to accept your decision to replace me as Manufactury Administrator. However, I must protest it in the strongest possible terms. You are blaming a loyal servant of House Cannith for the actions of an insane warforged, and you are turning your back on the only possible resolution to the warforged issue. Don't be fooled into thinking that your pet protege Channa will be able to handle someone as savage as the Lord of Blades! My plan is the only way to resolve this crisis without a bloodbath.
 * Find Toven d'Cannith's Tenth Letter
 * From: Toven d'Cannith To: Coin Lord Yorrick Amanatu I wonder whether you and the Coin Lords could ask my superiors to reconsider my plan? It is the only way to deal with the Lord of Blades with no loss of life. If nothing is done, I fear that you must prepare the city for a violent battle. While it is true that my device would permanently change the warforged living in Stormreach, these changes would be for the better. Once my plan has been implemented the city's warforged will lead happier, more productive lives!
 * Find Toven d'Cannith's Eleventh Letter
 * From: Toven d'Cannith To: Channa d'Cannith I cannot believe that you still resist my arguments. Permitting the warforged to have souls was a design mistake. Surely the Lord of Blades is proof of that! Allow a warforged to do as he wishes and he becomes unhappy, uncontrollable, and violent. All my device does is correct a mistake we never should have made in the first place. Channa, despite our past differences I am still willing to use my device to rescue our House - and your career. I await your reply.
 * Find Toven d'Cannith's Twelfth Letter
 * From: Toven d'Cannith To: Channa d'Cannith I cannot wait any longer, Channa. I will not allow warforged fanatics to attack my House and my city, not when I hold the key to repairing the warforged without shedding a single drop of blood. So I must act now. By my Device. In an instant all the warforged within Stormreach will become gentle, tractable, and infinitely more happy than they are now. We should never have burdened these pitiful creatures with a burden they were never equipped to handle!
