Event - The White Dragon

[The Warp Band feed opens with the Matriarch’s impassive face looking slightly haggard]

Union, I have a problem and am in need of assistance. About two hours ago refugees just started streaming into the Citadel territory. They say they’re from a city called “Glacier” that is being ripped apart by a giant white Dragon god. Sounds like it’s something up your alley. I’m sending them your way, we should probably go take care of that before it makes it over here. If you guys want to help out, I’ll lend you some of our birds. My Valkyries are already heading over, I’m sending a few flights out to the other cities as well to see if they want to join the party. Let me know what you decide.

Oh, the refugee leader is a fellow named Birgir. I gave him a Warp Band so he can probably tell you more about the situation.

(OOC: Questions to the Matriarch and Birgir can be asked here, and general reactions can also be posted here.)

A photo?

[ This term seems foreign to him. ]

We scarcely had time to escape, let alone make drawings of the beast. I could not accurately tell you how large it was. It is at least as large as a few of our houses.

[schmott_guy]

I suppose that can't be helped. Now, the physiology of its wings. Would you say they were more bat like or bird like?

[This relentless barrage of requests for details continues in more or less this vein until Birgir gets fed up. Knowledge is never wasted, after all.]

[bnw_sheepy_npcs]

Does it truly matter what its wings look like?

[ Which, as it turns out, doesn't take all that long. ]

[schmott_guy]

If we are to drive off this beast, we must first understand it completely.

[bnw_sheepy_npcs]

[ Birgir gives him a dry look. ]

This beast is ravaging our land, burning our homes and killing our children. I find it hard to believe that knowing such a trivial detail will help drive it off.

[schmott_guy]

No doubt you would rather charge it while waving a sword around. How has that strategy worked for you so far?

[bnw_sheepy_npcs]

Wings are the same and serve the same purpose, no matter what shape they come in. I didn't come asking for a battle of semantics, I came asking for help.

[schmott_guy]

I'm surrounded by idiots.

Fine, I guess I'll see if I can whip something up for your dragon problem. But without knowing more about it I can't promise any miracles.

[bnw_sheepy_npcs]

[ Birgir is going to act like he didn't hear that. It's for the best, for both of them. ]

Appreciated. Frea said that we could count on you to help. Although...

Never mind, it isn't important. Thank you. We look forward to your assistance.
