B. We are MAGNUMUS in our rule. That and bandits are around, which means loot for the Horde.

Tunnel digging still sounds like work-- you'd rather leave that to your minions for now. You wheedle directions out of one of your underlings, make the necessary arrangements for your absence, and fly!

Halfway to the first hamlet, you spy some rather shady-looking men around a richly dressed corpse. Looks like they just ambushed and killed a passing aristocrat!

What luck!

After a brief and entertaining spot of violence, you find yourself in possession of two hefty bejeweled coffers. The locks are a little tricky for you, so you bury the coffers under a tree for later. You'll have to remember this spot!


As the sun sinks beyond the horizon, you spot your first hamlet in the distance. You coil yourself atop a secluded tree for the night, and consider how you'll make yourself known to the local yokels.

Tomorrow, you'll...
A) !!Burn whoever's in charge, and assert your dominance!!
B) Land imposingly in the village square, and demand tribute!
C) Land in the village square, and introduce yourself. Reassert the Baron's old land claim.
D) Corner an outlying farmer, and have him introduce you. Offer honeyed words of alliance.

C - Humans are surprisingly good at taking regime changes in stride. The banners and the names change, but the same taxes and duties are owed.

C. It's rather simple: we've taken charge of the Baron's holdings, ergo they belong to us, of course.

Perhaps also delineate the benefits of having a dragon defending their homes rather than just a normal baron's paltry forces.

You decide to take the direct approach. It's your land; what could go wrong?

Things work out OK!

There's some initial panic when you first slide into town... you hastily rattle off words of peace, and people start poking their noses out of the windows again. You present your claim with clear STRAIGHTFORWARDNESS, leaving your audience on familiar territory! They accept the terms readily enough, perhaps with a bit of trepidation.

Your work here done, you exchange goodbyes and leap for the clouds. You fly extra-high towards the next hamlet, so as not to draw undue attention.

7, 5

You take a bit more care with your next two introductions, and things go swimmingly! The hamlet of Detchwater is especially pleased by your arrival: from the sound of things, the Baron was a bit heavy-handed on their taxes.

You loop around to grab your coffers, then head for home. All in all, this trip's been a roaring success.

Vassal hamlets gained: Fless, Detchwater, Garnemston!


The mead-hall's become a bit of a mess in your absence. Your dais is back a few extra feet now, with the HOARD piled in the middle of it; around where they were, a gaping hole in the floor sinks around seven feet into the earth. There's a couple of your underlings at the bottom, struggling away with mattocks... looks like the ground's giving way to bedrock down there.

This is gonna take ages.

A) Away with these peons; you'll do the digging yourself!
B) Time to pay for some contracted labor!
C) Let's get some more peasants down here. If two isn't enough, maybe eight is better?
D) Meh, this is fine for now. You're a patient dragon.

[Maximum Spin]

D why do we even want a hole here again?

[TricMagic]

D in a day work. Though maybe if they had better tools.
