A Tale of Two Dragons

[WampusCat43]

Jogging toward the bridge, Nick mumbles a few arcane syllables and hurls a Flare spell to the limit of his range, attempting to both startle and illuminate the figures on the bridge.

 

[Harvey]

Penthar Danadin, Aglarondan Griffonrider

Penthar brings Regalclaw to a trot, following Brak's lead, but keeping an eye out around them, in case this is bait for a trap. When Nick casts his flare, Penthar takes note of the ruckus as best he can, ready to take flight if needed.

Brak waits to see what happens after the spell. "Maybe it's a private argument. The waters do look nasty," he whispers.

Nick's spell bursts right in front of the figures. It is clear to everyone that they are two adolescent human boys dangling another boy over the edge of the bridge. Their screaming stops for a moment and then continues, this time all three of their shouts are more like the dangling boy's. One covers his eyes with his arm and the other completely lets go of the dangling boy's foot to shield himself. The third boy drops at least a foot closer to the black river.

Faelar watches and waits, intrigued.

 

[Lefferts]

Zithran continues to walk towards the bridge, intent on pulling the dangling boy up.

 

[Harvey]

OOC: Does there appear to be enough room between the dangling boy and the icky river that Penthar can maneuver Regalclaw under the dangling boy in case he falls?

 

[Rae ArdGaoth]

Harvey: Definitely not.

Lefferts: The two standing boys look terrified. One has already let go of the dangling boy, and while the other is still hanging on, he looks like he will drop the dangling boy without another moment's hesitation if his own life is in danger. When Zithran reaches the foot of the bridge, the first boy runs off screaming and the second boy starts trying to pull up the dangling boy to no avail. Quickly he glances back at Zithran and lets the dangling boy fall farther. He stutters, "C-c-come any closer, an- an- an- I- I'll drop 'im!"

(OOC): If possible -

Moe continues to stride to the bridge. As he approaches, he casts a Web spell on the two boys, attempting to bind them to the overpass itself. "That should hold them", he thinks to himself.

 

[Rae ArdGaoth]

OOC: Moe?

A spray of gooey substance shoots from Nick's fingers. It collides with the bridge and bounces off to attach to a tree leaning over the river. The two boys are instantly caught in the giant spider web.
