Chapter 1.1: It's Dangerous to go Alone...

Toshi starts to wander around the chamber, looking to see if there is any more danger afoot...he does not, however, see anything of note...beyond the fact that he's fairly certain that this is one of the kobolds he faced in the alley the other night.

Dahlia, the dragon does not have an evil aura about it, and merely appears to be unconscious. There are wounds, but I will need a Heal check for you to determine exactly how serious they truly are.

There is a large amount of frostbite covering the dragon's flank.

The dragon starts to stir as Toshi moves to unlock the shackles holding it to the wall. Toshi notes, now that he's closer, that a clear material has tied the beast's mouth closed, and he has been unable to release the bonds thus far.

Toshi, through sheer determination, manages to free the dragon's legs from the manacles that bound it as its eyes flutter open and come into focus. It growls slightly when it sees Dahlia wrap the orb and place it into her sack, and a forelimb comes up to remove the muzzle around it's snout.

Dwarf...if you wish to leave this place with your legs still attached, you will place that orb in front of me, right now. The voice is a very rough female voice, and the dragon positions her head in perfect line with Dahlia, with smoke rolling from her nostrils. I do not wish to harm the ones who put an end to my pain, but I will destroy you before I let you leave here with that....that...abomination.

Curling up in a fashion very similar to a wary cat, the dragon focuses on Dahlia. She doesn't appear to weigh much more than a large warhorse, but the very mention of that threat is enough to put a bit of awe in everyone's spirits.Conversation without the torture would be lovely. I am called Franae. What are your names, brave saviors?
