Draltha leather armor for your companions, draltha skull totem and draltha bone crafts to sell in the fortress, draltha hair thread to keep as an emergency supply should the need to suture wounds come up, and more draltha meat that you'll ever need. Feed the bird, your companions and yourself, pack as much of  it on the bird and in your backpack as possible, give the rest to the lizardman tribe.
+1, only try to trade the extra meat for supplies. We'll need weapons and armor.

You'll have 28-40 bone crafts, 1 totem, and 1 ivory craft, all with 3x value multiplier. Your Bonecarving will level up a few times. (As did your Brewing, I'm sure.) But yeah, steel weapons and armor cost a fortune, better sell the excess meat.

Maybe we should turn a few bones into extra blowdarts for our lizard companion? Blowdarts are a lot smaller then bolts, so we should get be able to craft them at a pretty good rate.

You spend many hours setting up a workshop and butchering the alcohol poisoned beast. You spend another few hours crafting wares from it's body parts. You do take the occasional sip from the floor of plumphelmet wine and eat a large chunk of the meat, but you still work half-dazed from being so tired. You begin whistling a tune of old to keep awake and begin hauling your wares to you lizard comrads... if you could just find where the hell they wandered off to.
(+2 bonecrafting +1 tanning +1 butcher +1 leatherworking)

Our birdlike friend doesn't look too pleased. But his belly DOES look full. Maybe he overate. I think it's about time for us both to sleep off these events. Hopefully the lizards haven't abandoned us.
Let's find a safe place to nap. Just be sure to hide the crafted items before we doze off. Don't want any thieving critters finding them before we wake up.

We should examine the jabberer before we go to sleep, even though we haven't got any ranks in diagnoser. We don't want him to pop.

We should head back to the nest he made if it isn't too far and sleep for a bit.

I think that bulge on his stomach is just a pocket full of meat and sliver.

He's still pretty wild, I imagine he would have helped himself.

1) Make sure Jabberer is fed and not inclined to kill us in our sleep
2) Sleep.

+1 feed the bird and head back to the tavern, I'm sure that's where are helpers wondered off to.

If the tavern isn't too far, that's our best bet. We don't want to fall asleep while riding, though. We could end up somewhere we don't know of, or crash.

Feed bird, sleep, track down helpers (tracker skill is useful.)
