[un: sprite bulb] voice;

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.

It's on a chain, right? A gem would be awesome, though. Stuff like that - stuff that's really old, or painstakingly crafted - they work really well for spells like this. Like adding millions of years of compression onto my own skill.


... Sorry, rambling.

And yeah, I'm sure. What's the other option? Letting you risk yourself by yourself up against a dragon? No way, man.

Well, that sounds pretty old. And the gem itself will be way older - geology works on time scales way outside ours. But alright. Great. I'm set up in the Banquet Hall at the moment. You want to head this way?

[ Fox reached out to take it, eyes widening a little as he looked it over and then whistled lowly. ]

Nice. Does it have an enchantment on it already? I should be able to inscribe something here on the little metal seating for the gem, so I won't have to hurt the gem itself, but... Do you know anything more about it?
