>>why Kodius decided to put mortar and pestle making into forging too though.

Blacksmithing is our first-pick for tool creation. Not the only one, but it is generally best-suited for it.

I do intend to have stone and wood mortars and stone pestles, and the stone ones will have the potential to be better than metal in some ways (less durable, higher potency).

Metal mortars can work reasonably well if they have a coarse surface. Not impossible considering the advanced level of smithing technology present in Elanthia.

I'd also remind folks that much of what you'll eventually be crushing stands to be harder than your typical basalt mortar could handle... Eye of common newt, sure. Fang of acid dragon, not so much :(
