[QUOTE="Dichotomy, post: 3887875, member: 12941"] Allustan listens intently to the story. He makes no interruptions or queries as he waits patiently for the elf to finish. When Erdolliel retrieves the egg, the sage wordlessly examines it for what feels like an extremely long couple of minutes. [color=purple]"This is not a black dragon egg, as it might appear superficially. I have not seen the like before, but, given what you have told me, I have a conjecture. I do not believe the conjecture is far-fetched. I hypothesize Kyuss worms are growing within that egg. I speculate that, if you had not intervened, or if the egg had been broken open, the worms would have infected all of the lizardfolk eggs in that lair. I further speculate, based upon what the lizardfolk Hishka told you, that the reason an entire generation of their tribe was lost was because this same thing was attempted before."[/color] Allustan pauses a moment to think. [color=purple]"There are too many implications of this for me to reach a sound conclusion, at least yet. However, first things first. Bazrim, are you able to set this thing aflame? Your ball of fire would not be necessary, but bolts would do. Can you guess why?"[/color] [sblock=worthley]Know Arc check: 19+, success Bazrim, with the assumption that there are worms inside and with Allustan's hint, thinks that the burnt worms would make a paste. Someone with craft feats could make the paste into items that can be used to fight or otherwise deal with Kyuss Spawn. I can give you details later.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
