Session 39
As the party stands on the platform of the arena crowds roar names of the 4 teams in the areana. The four teams are possistioned on the east, south, north, and west sides of the arena. The party seems to be shocked to see this many people in the stands, but at the same time they seem tense not knowing how they are going to get out of the situation. Alkinn still awaits on the sending stone to give a message but no one answers from the other side. A black dragon born dressed in robes addresses the warriors and greets the 4 large dragons sitting attop the large stone chairs surrounding the arena. The crowd roars even more for the games of the dragon collesum are about to begin.
The black dragon priest tells the party about the first trail that they will be participating in. It is sort of a game of capture the point, except the points are large stone balls sitting atop very large towers or pillars. In the center of the arena sits an even larger stone ball making it the main prize of the trial. Tymus almost laughs as he knows this will be almost too easy for him. The trumpets roar and the 4 teams burst into action. Tymus grows huge and starts to easily pluck the ball off of the pilliars as they are fruit from a tree. The 3 other teams work together climbing the other towers, well most of the teams do, the white team however seems to have trouble. The red and the blue team leaders start to climb the large tower in the center of the collesium. Wild follows suit climbing the center tower as well. When getting to the top manson, vokril and wild come face to face. When battling for the center ball the trumpets roar again!! Petrodons fly out of the hatches and cause more choas in the battle. Tymus gains 4 points and asks Izen if he needs a boost to the top of the tower, with agreement Izen is flown upward and assists wild at the top of the tower. The center ball falls all the way to the ground and Lazarus and tymus push it to their points. At the end of the trial the Winner are Green, Red, blue, and white.
With a wave of a hand the black dragon born priest starts to change the collesium, the ground shifts and morphs as the tower sink into the ground. as the area is changin however, the party notices that the white teams ork is upset about something and holding a lifeless goblin, and the red team is missing a member of thier party as well. Alkinn assumes that the red team might have had something to do with the goblins death. Before they know it however the stage is set once more on the arena. Water pours from the sides of the walls and the crowd yells and cheers as this is happening. The priest explains that the next trial will be a race of sort. The teams must go through a sereise of doors in the river and the first person to go all the way around the arena wins. The teams are not allowed to cause harm to eachother in this trial, but they are allowed to cast spell affects at each other. The trumpets roar and the teams go to the races at the start of the race wild gives everyone that is swimming wather breathing except the red team. The red team seems relaxed at first. One half of the teams race to the center of the areana for clues to open the doors in the moat and the other half assist the swimmers. Izen cast a spell to have everyone telepathicaly linked at the same time. As riddels are being solved at the center of the arena everyone notices the red teams nome is writing all of the clues down. Tymus tries to stop it but a large hand appears and guards the knome. about half way through the moat Vokril burries the tortle on their team in the sand of the arena. The red team after not getting throuhg one section of the moat all of a sudden starts to go extreamly fast. The teams race around the moat once more and its almost a close race as wild shapes up the last collum and retrieves the flag. Again the Green team wins with Blue, Red, then White again.
The teams are lifted again upon the air and as the teams are waiting for the next trial to start an argument occurs on the white teams plat form the dragon borns rebel aginst the white teams leader and push him into the changing ground below. The crowd goes wild as people cheer for this betrail. 4 Large tower like structure rise from the ground and the teams are place at the very bottom of the arena. The goals of this trial is to get to the top without dying or getting hurt, the teams can try to hinder the others progress by throwing spells at eachother. The teams also have to stay attached by a rope. The trumpets roar and 3 of the teams start to make their way to the top of the tower. The white team seems to be out of hope and does not climb the tower at all, this gets the attention of the dragon priest. As the rest of the teams travel up the towers the blue teams wizard seems to leave the rope he was bound by and starts to travel up the tower by himself by teleporting. As all the teams travel up the tower by avoiding obsticales in their wake the blue dragon born wizard almost gets to the top of the tower. Then suddenly the top of the tower explodes in a firey explosion, the red teams knome yells out cheater. The lifeless body of the wizard falls to the ground then a shine of light comming from the blue teams tower erupts. The flash heads toward the reds tower and the red knome is scene split in two!! The party errupts into action as it seems the goal is not to get to the top but to battle! The Black Dragon Born priest Appears in the center of the arena and says if the everyone is going to fight then we will head to the next trial!!
The arena morphs into an island surrounded by spikes each remaining team is placed on the north east south and west sides. The crowd roars and the trumpets sound as the final battle starts to commence. As the party is battling in the arena muta is helping the goblin break into the vault of the dragons. The thieves are able to get underneith the place and are able to cut the tile of the floor to get into the room. A large room with nothing but a small amount of book cases cover the floor. In the center a large pile of gold and other gems sit atop a pedistal. Samo in his gold form also sits on the pedistal and the small girl from befor is chained to the stature of Samo. Muta runs to the small girl and tell her the she would be back for them and the girl thanks muta. Muta also realized the Ioun stone sitting on the pedistal and grabs that before proceding to do anything else. As muta pull the Flask stone to break the chains the chain glow but nothing seems to happen to them, realizing that the plan might have failed. Muta call the smal artificer goblin over to work on the chains. The small goblin seems hesitant then start to help. The chains start to break but not befor a familiar green dragon born burst into the room! He attacks muta and a battle occurs, the dragon born is not match for muta. As a last resort the dragon born pull out a flask stone glowing with orange and red, but befor he can throw it the goblin leader breaks the flask stone in he hand exploding the dragon born into pieces. The chains are finally broken on the girl and the ground begins to shake, muta tries to explain to the girl what had happened, but it seems to make the girl worse. The girls asks if they can borrow the power of samo and the gold starts to shift toward her and away from samo. Then suddenly the girl start to morph and flies through the celing! A Gold Great Wurm Appears!!
As the party fight the other teams the ground begins to shake and a huge dragon appears in the sky shining like a beacon. The four chromatic dragon brace themselves on the large pillars and the chairc crumble upon the strenght of them. Three of the dragons take off to the skys to try to meet the great wurm in the sky. Alkinn gets a message on the sending stone that ferd is there and is ready to go, The stone is rolled back and the party looks back as they rush toward the exit. Migin Furious roars "What have you done!!" and dives toward the party. As they all look toward thier doom suddenly A Hurt Darpon appears and tymus grows the size of a small mountain and catches migin mid flight toward the dragon. Alkinn tries to assist but tymus tells them to go on without him, and epic battle happens as tymus beats migin to the ground and vice versa. The party rushes toward the entrance and 4 fire children jump out and attack the remaining red team!! Everyone makes it into the underground cave the the entrance closes behind them, the fate of tymus is unknown.
