Anyway, you can find iron in the sunken tombs found in the swamps. You'll need the key from the Elder to access them. Dig through the muddy walls inside the tombs and search chests there to find iron scraps to smelt into ingots.

So there is no iron ores? Like deposits?

And the post was on a wiki, so I thought it was new, but it literally said only way to get iron was through FISHING!

And I was like, EXCUSE ME, fishing? When did fishes start wearing iron armour?

Anyway thanks for the answer! Award
