{OOC: Continued from "Strangers Enter the Wolf's Howl." I know, this isn't war, but I like the title.] *Addis took a few wrong turns, but eventually got to the school gates. He looked upon the school with a beaming smile, and he was mildly shaking with anticipation. This is it! I can finnally avenge my brother!! Jozan Dumarr will die today. But first, I must make sure I know everything Dreslin knows, and make sure that he is either a possible ally, or just somebody who won't get in my way. Addis thought to himself as he turned around and saw Flaccus and Dreslin walk over.* "Please forgive me for waking you, had I known I would not have bothered you. If you don't mind, may we talk?" |

*Flaccus followed Addis, also feeling excitment. Thoughts of the slaughter raced through his mind, and he had a tough time focusing. He then heard Addis' words, suppressed a sigh at waiting, then waited for Dreslin's responce.*
Is this really necessary? Can we get to hacking that so-called Knight to pieces?
Yes, it is. And we will, soon.

*Dreslin has indeed followed Grimms and Flaccus. He'd have preferred to return to bed, but the fresh air helps to ward off some of his lingering tiredness. He hopes he can back at the inn before darkness falls. Although he feels a little wary, he senses no immediate danger. Not to himself, anyway.
Dreslin looks past the gates, and gazes upon the dilapidated main building of the school. Beaten, scarred, but still standing. Dreslin respects this.*
An intriguing place, what's left of it, but not what I'd call a visitor attraction.

"I wonder, Dreslin, have you learned anything new about this place? All I've heard are the forests are dangerous and there are certain peoples who just feel that they must stand in the way of evil. So far, it doesn't sound very strange. Your thoughts?"
*Addis stared at Dreslin, trying to guess what his reaction would be and what events would take place here.*

In the few hours since we parted company, my experience of this place has been limited to the inn. Its maids are most kind and helpful, offering me this *he indicates his clothing* when my own went astray, and providing a thoroughly decent stew. The realm also has floating bricks and ogres, both surprisingly harmless it would seem. As Flaccus will confirm, an ogre joined me as a roommate, and I have lived to tell the tale!

[OOC: Er...I can't remember if there are ogres in Dragonlance (Krynn), so I'll roleplay as if Addis has never seen one]
"Ogre? Never heard of it. What's an ogre? I wonder, have you ever heard of The Five Headed Dragon Goddess? Names for her are Tahkesis, Ti'mut, Tiamat, and some times, The Queen. If you have heard of her, what do you think of her and her followers?"

You've not heard of ogres? Ah, that is interesting. Your bodyguard has evidently known ogres in the past. What was it you said when you saw my roommate, Flaccus? "Ogres...useless in the army and useless here too." Flaccus must have travelled more than you, Mr. Grimms. *Smiles* Or at least, battled more.

[OOC: Meh, I thought I messed up somewhere. Yeah, there are Ogres in Krynn (usually called Irda, or something like that), but they rarely show up in any of the books lol. I still have a way around my mistake...]
*Addis stares at Dreslin blankly, and scratches his head.*
"I....I must have forgotten about them. Oh yeah.."
*Addis mumbles to himself, remembering.*
"The Greygem passed through Krynn and changed the races, and the ogres were among those changed...er...was it Ogres were changed into Minotaurs and the Irda...Irga..whatever....or the Irda/Irga into Ogres and Minotaurs...Bah, I can't remember exactly."
*Addis notices he was talking outloud.*
"Er, sorry about that, I tend to speak my thoughts outloud. I haven't encountered an Ogre before, but Flaccus probably has, they're both violent savages after all."

[OOC: Don't worry about the mistake. After all, Barom Grimms is a fake identity, so Grimms wouldn't necessarily have all the knowledge that Addis has.]
*Dreslin can't help laughing out loud at Grimms' last remark, putting a hand to his mouth a moment too late. As he expected, the tensions between Grimms and Flaccus are proving quite intriguing.*

*Flaccus' eye twitched as Dreslin laughed. He gave Dreslin a cold, reptillian glare and then looked at Addis.*
"At least we do not hide behind others for protection. We are strong and hardy, capable of eviscerating even the strongest foes. We also have no need of magic. C'mon, let me beat some sence into you, because you obviously have none if your going to insult me right now."
*Flaccus forms his Greatsword out of pure shadows, and takes a swinig aimed at Addis' head...*

*...and missed as Addis was suddenly behind Flaccus (D-Door). Addis touched Flaccus on his side.*
"Do you know how many touch spells I could use on you right now, Flaccus? Ghoul Touch, Slay Living, Shocking Grasp. Enflame, Chill Touch, Vampric Grasp, and more. Think your actions before you act so rashly."
*Addis spoke in Draconic (Dragonspeak)*
"NOT NOW!! We must not let the Knight of Solamnia escape!! If you mess around now, you may very well make our task inpossible!!!"

*Dreslin raises an eyebrow and tilts his head as he quietly considers this development.*
Mr. Grimms, I think it is your bodyguard who needs a bodyguard!

*Flaccus' scails click together, sounding like, for a few seconds, a plague of locusts. He mumbes something about pain in the a**brothers. The sword disipates back into the shadows. He sighs and speaks in Draconic*
"Yeah, yeah, I get it. Carry on, 'Highlord'. Just make it fast."
*Flaccus speaks in Common.*
"Watch your tongue, it's not hard to lose..."

*Addis speaks in Draconic*
"Never call me that. Those damned humans do not deserve to control dragons. They are called Dragon Highlords, so what in all the Abyss are they humans?! Anyways, my spell is wearing off, so we might have to rely on dragons being rare in this realm for us to talk privatly."
*Addis takes his hand away and stretches a bit. He speaks in common.*
"I must apologize for that. But, as I was asking, have you ever heard of Tiamat?"

The name is unfamiliar to me. You said she is a "Five Headed Dragon Goddess". Does this mean she is the goddess of five headed dragons, or that she is herself a dragon with five heads?
