Paths of Legend - Tragedy at Silvergard

[Amaury]

"Err, I doubt this is gonna work Alaric. THis dragon is young. He's not used to humans or may not even have seen a city. Let alone ask him to find the Guild.. And he's still injured. Think of all the people who would pay a fortune to have him as a pet or sell his scales.. I think it's too risky.."

He stops to think and continues: "Hum, we're in a dead alley here.. I can't see any other option but to give up either on our mission to accompany the dragon, or to ask the dragon to stay with us until we finish our mission.. I don't know how long he can survive.."

He goes to fetch the Dagger and coming back asks to all: "Where is Valen guys??"

OOC: supposing Muzdum hears Johen, and he got the translated version of the conversation.

"Ah' could be ridding on his back" he says smiling. "Oh wait, Ah'm too heavy.... Maybe Norali can go with him. Ah'll have no trouble, if he can lift me up Ha!"

Valen makes his way back to the others as quickly as possible.

 

[Arkhandus]

(ooc: Never said Alaric was going to translate his own Draconic speech for the others. He sees no reason to.)

Alaric responds to the others "No, no, askin' the dragon to come with us, let alone askin' it to serve as a mount, would be foolish. It's going to take offense to the latter, an' I'm sure it considers its own deadly plague to be a more pressin' issue than what we're doing. We have to try an' help however we can in Silvergard, especially if there's still anyone alive there to help, and this fellow needs t' keep lookin' for a cure."

[sblock=OOC]Ok, happy to change my post if you want me to Alaric. keeping it secret could work for Johen who would not be surprised, just assuming the dragon is not interested in us since we doint seem able to help him.
if Alaric discloses his proposal, then Johen's initial view still stands.[/sblock]

"He is just a child. Can we morally allow ourselves to send him away on literally a wing and a prayer? I would like more information. Alaric, could you ask it if it knows anything about sudden appearances of undead, or of silvergard, or even strange beings hunting for a dagger? Perhaps his disease is linked to the other strange events that have been brewing the past weeks, and more answers can be found ahead of us rather than back at the adventurers guild?"

As Valen arrives back at camp, he catches the tail end of the conversation with Norali saying, "I could take the dragon to my uncle, Jolly. He would know what to do."

The dragon, meanwhile, is getting a little fidgety and has started preening dead scales, leaving oddly bare patches on its hide.

The strides to his companions and speaks gruffly. "There is another camp nearby... and they are aware of us."
