Star Iron was mixed with ordinary iron ore, and the quantity was not much.
The Aegis tribe dug through all four mineral mines but only found about two tons of Star Iron ore.
Star Iron heated with ordinary fire would not melt, smashed with a hammer would not break, chopped into small pieces would not cut. Therefore, every testing time Sane could only test with each huge chunk.
The first time he used excessive Divine Energy, the entire kiln collapsed, the Star Iron also evaporating along with it. The second time Sane used too little, the Star Iron did not even get warm. The third time, the fourth time,... the twelfth time Sane finally succeeded in smelting a piece of Star Iron the size of a pinky nail.
But having success as a foundation, the remaining Star Iron was also easier to smelt.
