==Steel and flint==
If you don't have a [[steel and flint]], making one is going to be a real tough proposition. Until you do have one, you will be unable to use a forge or oven, or (most important) unable to make charcoal piles.
Steel and flint requires steel lumps. To make steel, you need charcoal. The easiest way to get charcoal is to build a [[charcoal pile]]. But, since you don't have a steel and flint, you can't light it! What to do?
There is are at least two other sources of charcoal. Lava spiders and lava fiends sometimes drop charcoal when killed. Other than that, you may have to buy or (dare we say) steal it. Until you have this valuable tool, you are going to be hampered by only being able to make poor little [[campfire]]s. You'll need to get some to make better quality items. Hope you have decent fight skill!
