Hmm I guess this is possible. I also think the timeline would be a bit problematic for the PW to have supplied iron from Forge at the time of the red ship raid. I imagine SWR had been trapped there a LOT longer than that.
I don't know that iron is in short supply necessarily - the amount needed to make iron bars could have washed up on the shore from a ship's cargo or maybe the anchor (do the items on the shore come from shipwrecks? I can't recall if where they come from is made clear. I seem to recall the waters are treacherous around the island)
I wish I had some insights on the whole Kitten-Thick and drowned kittens thing! There's something there!
