"That's the thing!  I want to help you!  Not hurt you!  I could never...!"

Niamh seems awed by the dragon, instead of in fear of the dragon.

[Nakéen]

A large Icy wing grabs Niamh, hoisting her up and over towards the ice wall, "I told you I would protect my safety if you returned!" The Ice wall shatters as a terrifying ice dragon's head emerges.

The head then swivels to stare at Taros, "I know why you are here. Is this the beast you were looking for? Are you going to attempt to slay me, making my race truly extinct?"

Upon seeing the powerful form of the dragon, Taros mutters :
"So the rumor were true !..."

He quickly looked at Niamh, and then back at the head that just spoke to him. Looking at the Dragon was hard, as the cold air dried his eyes.
"You are indeed the Dragon I was looking for. But I didn't come to kill, see, I came as a sword-less knight !"

Taros decided to put some of his faith in Niamh's past words. In a way, he regretted having left his sword with Lillian. He shouted, trying to fight against the shivering of his voice :
"But Dragon ! You are not the mindless beast the watchmen spoke about ! As a knight, I have to know the truth ! If we can communicate, then heed my pleas for answers !"

[TheBiggerFish]

"...I asked him, pleaded for him to listen, to not merely strike blindly and become the monster we both abhor...Please.  Prove yourself right, prove that you are not what others fear you to be."

[Twinwolf]

Lillian is very much trying not to shake while she's at the door. This fact is aided by her coat, and possibly the fact that she left the swords at the door (inside, not outside) because she physically couldn't carry them and thus is less likely to be seen as a threat.

[Sanure]

"So yer seekin to help lady Solynthir. So be it. Hop on. I'll take you to Miyva." Russel finishes his prep work and hops onto the wagon, waiting for Geliebte and company to climb up.


"Quiet, child of the Forest! you are no better than the humans who would slaughter me! And you, "Honerable Knight, tell me why I shouldn't devour both of you here and now?! My safety is already threatened, and my peaceful life is already gone. Why should I not become the monster your kind label me as?!" Solynthir roars, anger in her frozen voice.

[AbstractTraitorHero]

Geliebte  nods and Pat's the boy on the head.
"Let's  go guys and thank you boy I'm Geliebte and I'm a holy Knight."

[Sanure]

"Do I look like a boy to ye?" Indeed, If geliebte would note, he is a man roughly twice her age, if not older.

[AbstractTraitorHero]

"Eh when you survived the stuff I have Even you look like just a boy to me if I learn more my opinion will probably change"

[Sanure]

"I'm old enough to be yer grandpa, child, so I'll see ye give me the respect of knowing I'm old." Russel sounds agitated.

As soon as everyone has climbed on, Russel grabs the leads. With a lash of the leads, the horses take off, heading north of the town.

[kj1225]

Beorhtric chooses not to comment on Geliebte's behavior and instead just hold on.

[Chevaleresse]

Caderyn, hearing the roar, hoists himself up off of his seat with a grunt of mixed pain and effort. He checks himself to ensure his weapons are secure (without particularly considering how he plans on actually using them), then starts toward the church.

[AbstractTraitorHero]

Geliebte  sighs lightly and in a more sincere tone.
"sorry old man I dident mean to offend you all right.

[Sanure]

"'Tis alright. I usually make the medicine run for Lady Solynthir, but I've been hounded the past few weeks with merchants coming in and horses needing shoes. this is the first time in almost a month I had time to visit Miyva."

[TheBiggerFish]

"And how is that?  Have I hurt you?  Have I tried?  Could I ever?  Look into my spirit, since you know it better than I!  See that what I seek is peace and balance!  For all of us!

You should not become the monster others think you are because a monster you are not.

...If you truly think my death needful, that I am but a monster to be ended like you fear others think of you...May I ask a dying wish?  May I know who returns me to the soil from which I grew?  O she that would judge my soul, may I ask your name?"

Niamh is crying now, tears spiralling down her cheeks, tinkling, frozen, to the ground.

"If...If this ends as I fear...If I cannot be brought back, Lillian, you may have my material goods.

My family will know, if I am truly gone.  They needn't be told.

And...Should I die the final death here, I ask of you...Do not avenge me.  Thus I charge you all.  I wish to help her, even though it kills me in the process."

Niamh bows her head in contemplation, steeling herself for the worst and praying, not for herself, but for the others, for wisdom and peace for them.  Especially for the dragon.

One almost thinks they could hear a faint music in the susurrus of her prayer...

[Nakéen]

"Quiet, child of the Forest! you are no better than the humans who would slaughter me! And you, "Honerable Knight, tell me why I shouldn't devour both of you here and now?! My safety is already threatened, and my peaceful life is already gone. Why should I not become the monster your kind label me as?!" Solynthir roars, anger in her frozen voice.

Taros could feel the deep rage animating the Dragon. A very sad, lonely, and honest rage.

Now even his throat was beginning to dry. Speaking clearly was becoming painful.
"Because I know that once people let go of their hope, they will turn into the most wicked creatures of the world. And I feel your anger, your anger doesn't lie. You are no malevolent monster, only a lone soul who knew too much of despair. Yet I believe a part of you is still holding onto the hope of a peaceful life. But if you kill one of us, this hope will be lost forever, and with that you will become a monster. If I am right and you still have hope, you have to hear us out !"
