The spawn has taken well in the near-equatorial climate of this strange floating isle that I have taken to calling ᚠᛚᚩᚪᛏᛁ ᛘᚳ ᚠᛚᚩᚪᛏ ᛈᛚᚪᚳᛖ. I am ahead of schedule and will need more organic matter and extra labour soon…
After taking a pleasant walk I came across Ozul self-administering some kind of emergency blood transfusion. I did enquire if he was feeling alright having noticed his peculiar complexion previously, insisting he was fine despite having just performed an emergency medical procedure he offered me what remained of his transfusion donors. This could prove… fruitful, in my experimentation.
Soon after we were interrupted by a terribly flustered Air Genasi informing us a Dragon (Thlelastal) was heading towards Zephyr and great destruction could follow in its wake. Apparently the residents of this isle are familiar with the creature, Ozul jumped at the chance to battle it again, distraught that it would destroy the zephyrian ecology before I could test my hypothesis I joined him.
That teleportation spell feels tingly.
We arrived in a beautiful garden expertly tended by an Aarakocra with some interesting ideas about ᛚᚪᚳᛖᚳᚢᛚᛏᚢᚱᚪᛚ ᚠᛖᚱᛏᛁᛚᛁᛏᛁ ᚳᛁᚳᛚᛖᛋ….
….after finally arriving at the temple we believe the ̶G̶a̶s̶ ̶l̶i̶z̶a̶r̶d̶. Wind Dragon was headed toward we found a bridge made of beautiful vines collapsed, nothing that couldn't be fixed but they later became pivotal..
Talking with an elder of the temple of a humorous name (Kukreig) we decided to prepare defensive positions and Ozul managed to convince the militia from the town below to assist us and lend us three ballistae which he had the militia string with cains betwixt them. Ozul can be quite convincing when he's not covered in viscera.
Soon enough the Dragon appeared with the full fury of a winter gale, Ozul wanted them to be captured alive and ordered the ballistae to loose their missiles in volley ensnaring the Dragon in chains. as it crashed to the ground I entangled it in the vines I had nurtured earlier. We set about it with weapons and harsh language, before being blown about like leaves in a storm.
I was lucky to grasp at those vines and not fall to my death, Ozul less so lying in a crumpled heap by the temple.
I managed to reach him and administered another transfusion. I suspect he has some sort of haemophilia leading to anaemia and pica.
After that the last thing I remember feeling was a skull splittingly deafening roar
Apparently, the force of the Dragon's breath had knocked us unconscious before the Dragon itself was subdued by its wounds and another volley of ballistae.
After recovering somewhat we learned from the Dragon that it had taken up residence on ᚠᛚᚩᚪᛏᛁ ᛘᚳ ᚠᛚᚩᚪᛏ ᛈᛚᚪᚳᛖ only after seeing its companion slain and being unable to reach its own domain, attacking the temple in a desperate attempt to get home.
Ozul says there is some kind of organisation that helps such creatures, for now I have decided to stay with the Dragon. They are currently chained up with torn wings and an extra hole in the face, it will need treatment and my experiments don't require any immediate attention. I also promised those vines I'd feed them some bonemeal.
