ITEMS IN THE FORGE
Items are interactive objects that lie between equipment and pure aesthetics. They include gadgets, ornaments, keys, and devices that help forgers. They illuminate caves, boost drop rates, unlock shortcuts, and change gameplay in some areas. Some items are used up right away. Others are permanent upgrades. Once bought, they stay with the character.
