((Happy new year to you, too!))<br/><br/>Searching around the forge in a quick scan, hey eyes would alight on something that they *probably* didn't have an extra supply of - a barrel full of oil, used to quench hot objects from the forge. Spilling that would make quite a mess, likely shutting down the forge for a while, and requiring them to get a replacement, which<em>might</em>serve as enough of a distraction to get her out, while he cleans up.<br/><br/>If she wanted to be less malicious about it, she could try and request something that would take an ingredient they don't have one hand... but that might be difficult, given their reasonably stocked storeroom in the back!
