After the casting of various spells, my character was brought back from near death.  The first thing he and the party set out to do was reorganize, reequip, and kill the dragon.  They succeeded and, subsequently my character had the dragon's hide turned into armor and his shared of the reward spent on enchanting te armor with  with various properties to allow him to get back his sword and a few other items he held dear.  After, a long search in the waters of the swamp, he found not only his equipment, but the underwater entrance to the dragon's lair and it's horde.</blockquote>
