This dragon greatly resembles Boreal Serpents I've encountered. There are a few differences, but they're otherwise quite similar- particularly in shape and elemental affinity.

Seeing as a number of us seem keen on returning it to the ocean as originally promised, I think we can agree it's in everyone's interest to calm it first before any further damage is done.

[A breath, then barreling through the rest with the grit of someone fully expecting an argument]

..So, I'm going to try and put it to sleep. I don't fully expect this to work, and I don't expect it to work swiftly, but all we need to do is calm its mind enough to work with. It's otherwise proven itself to be an intelligent creature.

But this will take time to manage. In the meantime, it has the body of a serpent: strong, scaled, and greatly flexible. Straying close isn't wise or likely terribly effective with ordinary weapons. Held at range and distracted would be ideal.

..As such however, this only has a chance to work with assistance.

I think some people might not be very happy that we're releasing her... probably best not to get noticed too much.

[bearshermark]

You'd think they would be, considering the risk of keeping her much longer. I'm not sure how to help with an escort- or if I'll be able to.

Have you seen these people? I try to think the best of most people, but I believe they would rather see her dead as retaliation, never mind that it's entirely their fault we're in this situation now.

That's a sentiment we have in common. But that's why we have to try.
