Audio; un: Black Prince

[ Rebuilding efforts in Taravast are going slowly, but Wrathion had the bright idea to try and wrangle some of the Blood Golems that needed to be captured and make use of them.

Unfortunately... he has been running into problems.

There's a note of strained patience in the audio message when it clicks on:

It seems the main risk when it comes to the golems is... clumsiness, thanks to their size and strength. They have all the intellect of a newly born mammal, and just as small an attention span. They take direction but are... easily distracted.


[ This is frustrating. The distant sound of heavy footsteps is audible nearby. ]


I had --


[ Wrathion is cut off by... his own voice, talking over him from further away? It is very firmly saying CONTINUE CLEARING THE RUBBLE. The heavy footsteps pause, then sound again. ]


... I had hoped to put them to use, but they may be more trouble than it's worth.


[ He's having to watch this thing like a hawk.

For anyone in the residential area, they might spot Wrathion standing near one particular golem which is slowly helping clear a collapsed building. It has a small, glowing gem attached to it which periodically jumps to life and plays a recording of Wrathion's voice to remind it what it's meant to be doing.

He's finding this quite excruciating, but at least the golem is managing to get some work done. If you want him to direct this golem to help you, offer your own help, or just question him about it he's quite open to any of those things.

[Listen, it is not often you put yourself in these situations and then air them in the light of day. He must take advantage of them while he can.]

Would you like some assistance?

[He will note that wasn't specifically an ask. He wouldn't want to intrude!]

[Oh he is absolutely picturing this and it is adding to his amusement.

Also that is not a clear yes or no, sir.]


So it would seem.

I would be happy to assist you, if my presence would not be a further hindrance.

[Ah yes. The big powerful black dragon cannot lower himself to ask for help.

Company, on the other hand.]


Of course. I will be over shortly.

I'm sure you will not be too hard to spot.

[A beat.]

Or hear.

[He Tries.]
