Location: Ledetchko
To start this quest you should talk to the Ledetchko Blacksmith and offer him your help.
There's talk that the Sasau blacksmith uses magic charms when tempering steel and his counterpart in Ledetchko would like to know if there’s any truth in it.

I'll have to be very cautious about getting any information from the Sasau blacksmith. By all accounts he’s a grouchy bastard who doesn't like anyone poking their nose into his craft. Maybe it would be better to try asking one of his family?
Go to Sasau. You should talk to Blacksmith's wife and ask her about those rhymes the blacksmith says to himself.
I’ve found out the Sasau blacksmith hasn't been muttering spells, just a little stupid ditty he recites to time the stages of tempering.
The blacksmith mustn't notice me nosing around, otherwise he won't recite his rhyme aloud.
All I have to do is listen to the whole of the Sasau blacksmith's rhyme, remember it and then repeat it to his Ledetchko rival.
Correct answers / order is:
I managed in the end to repeat the rhyme to the Ledetchko blacksmith and he rewarded me for it. Maybe I should memorise it - if I ever go back to the trade it could come in handy.
The following objective will appear in your journal if you mistake something in the order of the song.
I don’t recall the Sasau blacksmith’s ditty. There's nothing for it but to go back and listen to it again, and this time remember it word for word.
I did it! The Ledetchko blacksmith got his explanation of the alleged magical tempering process, I got my reward, and if I ever return to the family trade, that process could come in handy.
You can also talk to the Sasau blacksmith and get some information what he is doing directly from him.
I managed to get the blacksmith to tell me how he does his tempering. All it took was a few words. Now to tell the Ledetchko blacksmith. Thankfully I don’t have to deal with any spells…
Go back to Ledetchko and tell the blacksmith what you found out.
I explained the tempering process to the Ledetchko blacksmith and he was so delighted that he rewarded me very handsomely.
