Splitnose and Shatterbones:

The Zmei landed with the two goblin children in a dark aerie and flew off again. Back in the direction of Goblin City. Suddenly the two children were being swarmed by baby zmei.
as adorable as they are dangerous, the infant dragons seemed to want to play with their food. Shatterbones and Splitnose were not having it though. They ran off deeper into the dark aerie, back and forth as the baby dragons chased them, until finally the children climbed up a humoungous pile of skulls. Trapped up there, Shatterbones and Splitnose-- utterly terrified-- waited for someone to rescue them. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!

Erik:

"Towards Pragaras? We should at least check on Geldas first. He's the only horse breeder in the area, which puts him in constant danger from the vampires who try to kill those noble beasts." Zurga suggested. Pallidus nodded "Without him any resistance fighter would have to learn to tame wild horses, which can be dangerous. Ever tried taming a horse? They act like bulls and try to throw you off. Not that it matters to me, these wings can get me anywhere."

Atleisti finished his last rites for Arvis, and rejoined the group " I am finished here, but as it stands, you seem to lack a healer. If you would permit me, I would be honored to join you. I am just as adept at healing as I am at setting enemies on fire. Meeting my Grand-uncle can wait. Truth be told, I don't think Vyras will be happy to meet me. My grandfather and him had a falling out nearly 60 years ago over his decision to join the resistance. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!

Annie:

Kunigas reappered in his new clothes and, began reading Draconic Slaying for Beginners , the book Shatterbrains picked out. After about 15 minutes of reading the heavy tome. He handed the tome to Annie. " This passage right here" he said pointing to the first paragraph of page 22

"There are 4 types of dragon in this world: Dragonlings Drakes, Dragons and Zmei. All three types are dangerous, but in recent years, the sightings of such creatures has dwindled. In part, due to the knowledge on how to deal with them. You see, dragons of all three types are obsessed with acquiring treasure, gold, gems. They know not the value of such materials, they are hardwired to accumulate large amounts in their long lifetimes. One potential way to deal with a dragon, is to use gold or silver to lure it into a trap

"

Drakes: Smaller than your average dragon, and singularly male are the drakes. They are exist simply to mate with any female in the brood, after which the pregnant female kicks the male out of the nest. They then make their own lair often where there is treasure.

Dragonlings: The baby dragon's hatch from eggs, often dragons take a long time to hatch, 14 years at least. Hence the Female dragons are super protective of their young. Because it is so dangerous to acquire them, raising dragons one's self is illegal and can net one exile from their community.

Zmei:

Zmei are different from regular dragons, as there are many types, Such as the Zmei Gorynich or the Tugarin. The Zmei Gorynich is a dragon with jet black scales, multiple tails, and up to 9 heads, all of which breath fire. It is a deadly adversary. Tugarin are not true dragons, They are more humanoid, but they breath fire, and are known to stalk their underground lairs for food, which just so happens to be humans and humanoids. They are monstrously strong, but they can't fly in the rain and they are quite stupid." Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!

Shatterbrains handed over the other book, The Drowish Language: Hearing The Enemy Kunigas began reading the text thoroughly " The future crown prince was an effective teacher, but right away, you can almost hear his bitter hatred of the drow. His bigotry is even in the title. After another fifteen minutes of reading, he pointed to a particular excerpt

"Understanding the drow is pretty easy, their language is similar to Sudovian, the Word " Thae" means "the" for example. Only by understanding their language can we hope to know enough about them to eliminate their brand of necromantic sorcery from the world. Here are a couple common words in their tongue that are similar in our language:

Thae: the

Aet: it

Waet: what..."

Annie:

Shatterbrains and Kunigas nodded. "I agree" Shatterbrains said in ancient drowish. "Annie, Look at this!" Belar exclaimed. "A manual on traps. Since this library doesn't have due dates for it's books, and since the drow built this library, I'd say it's spoils of war. Belar looked through the book. "Ah, the standard fuse trap, It's a tripwire trap that lights a fuse and then a big explosion occurs. You could rig a wire to your firebomb spell to bring down the caverns onto the dragon."

"Devious, girl." Kunigas began " I'm too old to fight a dragon, so I will lead the children back to the village." He finished " You gotta get the children out of there first before you bring the cavern down," Shatterbrains said.

As they were talking a screech echoed throughout the town, and then the library shook. It was a screech that sounded familiar. Kunigas and Belar ran up to the window. Two more goblin children, both girls were playing a game a Leapfrog when the Zmei snatched them into it's claws and flew off. Goblins chucked spears at the Zmei, but it was too late, the creature had flown off.

"Not again," Belar said dejectedly. "That monster won't stop until this city has no more goblins left to feed its young. Not that I discounted the ravenous appetite of a hungry zmei." Kunigas said. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!
