At least, the books don't say they try anything, and it's presented as if they are just taking the word of the guys from "Team Evil", as [USER=6747251]@Micah Sweet[/USER] puts it, without doing anything to try and get the eggs back. It just made me not feel immersed in the book that was a part of (I think it was the second one) and I almost laughed at their stupidity.Metallic Dragons can shapeshift. If the Chromatic Dragons could find their eggs so easily without the power to shapeshift, surely the Metallic Dragons would have an even easier time finding them in some shapeshifted form or by pretending to be a Chromatic Dragon and infiltrating Team Evil.It's just a part of the story that I thought was dumb and undermines the coolness of the Draconians, IMO. Like I said, in my reading experience of Dragonlance, most of the cool things had a dumb backstory. It's one of the parts of the setting that makes me not enjoy it as much as I might have otherwise.</blockquote>
