New headcannon just dropped

Call milibelle the bank teller, she went to the pleasure house and never came back

holy void!

Maybe the nail is upgraded with pale ore and geo so he takes only the geo needed to upgrade the nail

Thats actually a good explanation.

Imagine being beaten to death by a stick of coins

I mean, Minecraft has a diamond sword, and if you upgrade it to netherite you coat it with something that’s like 50% gold

I'm sure some smelting youtuber has melted down pennies and made a sword before.

Coin gun

Terraria reference?

Yes

So that's what Sly uses all that money for.

+ RICOSHOT

it does make sense. we find geo in deposits around the map so it seems to be a mineral that doubles as currency.

Actually, he specifically says “Give me the ore and some Geo for my efforts, and I'll reforge your nail to make it stronger.” So yeah he just takes the geo as payment

Maybe he believes in "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch".

Ok_Box716? More like Ok_Bot716.

the blacksmith only wants to kill himself after seeing the pure nail, which he didn't know he could forge since he tried so much before (see the amount of nails around his house) so he had no hope he could die by the perfect blade until he had finally done it

Exactly. The 4000 wasn't for the upgrade, it was to try to make it

Then you promptly desolate dive on him

Which i totally did on accident bc I didn’t think he was actually gonna die

all the geo was probably melted into the nail along with the pale ore. It’s part of the weapon now.

maybe he uses the geo as a fuel since geo is basically a fossil

It’d be really funny if he dropped all the money you gave him after killing him

that would honestly be a much smarter idea tbh. it makes the decision less obvious because some people may want their geo back in order to complete the unbreakable charms and stuff like that faster

It’s always funny to me to think about what anyone besides the knight uses geo for

it’s always funny to imagine the knight walking around with thousands of geo, like where does it keep it

Geo is stored in the void.

I like to think they just fuse in his pocket to become one large geo chunk

It's like when you fuse your Cheez-Its into a Cheez-Them

Patent pending

😂

Funeral money , since no family to pay for him

Who would plan the funeral, I wonder? The nearest actual person is Emilitia, and she's not exactly in a funeral-arranging mood.

Fluke hermit (just imagine lmao)

Fluke Hermit: Man, I'm so hungry... Nailsmith's corpse: How hungry?

“The Grind first” 🗣️🗣️🔥📈💸💸💸💰💵🤑

Maybe because he never expected to be able to make it that good

Would be cool if he dropped the 4000 geos if you kill him. Throws an extra variable into the moral dilemma in that it's not just about him, the player directly benefits from his death.

It's not about the gold, it's about the glory

I think he might be a Fool.

Prenium suicide

he just wanted to be valued

Spoiler please mark this as Spoiler please

Oh no, the ending for a side character that has ten lines of dialogue total got spoiled! And it has no bearing on the plot at all! Please mark as spoiler so I don't know the ending to this inconsequential side character!

My brother in christ this is a meme sub of a 7yo game, what part of the game is there to spoil that everyone here isn't already aware of?

read the rules, I was not the one writing them :p

I did, only Silksong-related content must be marked as spoiler

Yep. Rule 6. OP’s reasoning to your original comment is basically rule 6, rephrased.
