Dragon death

I rock.

Well, okay, the other guys have their good points as well but I think they’d have trouble if I weren’t here watching their backs.

It seems the Northrogs know how cool dwarves are too because every time we find some they’ve nabbed another one. They’re just lucky most of the dwarves are still in the World Below or they would so be getting their butts kicked from one end of the Upworld to the other.

So first I found the hidden exit from this room so we could get clear of the dragon. Then I led the assault on the Northrogs we found, and even found another hidden passage from the temple back into the cavern.

For the final fight against the dragon I pretty much stayed back and watched—the others were pulling their weight in this one. Of course, I did activate a humongous dwarven ancestor spirit to help them out, but it’s not like the others couldn’t have worked it out. Oh wait, it’s exactly like that!

The Northrog cook was not such a bad guy, and even Ili agreed there was no reason to kill him (not to mention he roasts a tasty boar). He told us that some of the best items had already been taken away, and the rest was in the lake.

Obegard says he should be able to work out what all the magic items are. I hope there’s something nice in there, though most of it looks kind of boring. Some nice boots that I might be able to use.

The Northrogs have also loaded us down with minor magical breastplates and axes. We could almost set up a shop. At least it will be worth some money if we can find any place big enough to be able to handle them all.
