Hey! Did you see that, MC?! There was a black, spiky mountain way off in the distance. |
 |
That's the sacred place we call Mount Dread. |
|
Legend has it that the Thorn Fairy's castle rested on that mountain... Past Mount Dread is Dragonopolis, the capital city, as well as Castle Blackscale. |
|
Ugh, does that mean we're gonna have to climb over those spikes?! |
|
We might be able to borrow a flying beast mount at the campground... ...but the mountain is cloaked in black clouds that supposedly blast lightning at any who intrude without a dragon's permission. They say it acts as a fortress that repels intruders from the outside... |
|
All of which means traveling by air will likely not be feasible |
|
Even though we've got a dragon egg with us?! |
|
We'll have to sort this out at the campground. |

*Stomping* |
|
I hear bootsteps...! |
|
It's the Silver Owls. What do we do? |
|
Hide in the thicket up ahead and wait for them to pass us by. Then we strike them from their unguarded rear to minimize our own casualties. |
| So we fight. | I'm surprised you'd suggest an ambush... |
|
Yeah. We need to whittle down their numbers where we can. or else they're more likely to surround us later. Thinking about what I've been taught over the years, I've realized... |
|
Father hasn't changed all that much from his active duty days aside from his manner of speech, has he? |
|
...They're here. Let's do this! |
Battle!
