You decide to visit the floating continent, to try and steal a non-sentient dragon egg. You worked with sentient ones, so you had a trust based relationship. The floating continent is actually int he area this week, which means a few old acquaintances are as well. Particularly Lanua, and Sanatara. One of them would probably help you, the other tear out your throat with a moments notice. One of them recognizes your calls, the other broke it. You decide to head to a clearing. Upon reaching there, you execute your Overlord Call. You see a black dot slowly gaining size in the distance. In a minute, you see him. Lanua.
"Well la-de-da, look who's come back after all our history." Lanua says. He's an average sized grey dragon with a scratchy voice, and a he's one of the few who didn't mind the service you signed to them.
"Yes, quite. I need some help reaching the continent, as I can't really fly without some help or air magic." You explain, trying to sound like you aren't begging.
"You want another egg don't you?" Lanua ask, some question in his voice.
"A non-sapient one. I don't want to start all the rabble from last time, and I'm sure no one remembers me kindly."
"Hmm. Do you remember the spells, or have the saddle for flying?" Lanua asks, clearly ready to help you with this.
"I remember the spell for bareback."
"Good. This is the only time I'm taking you there, and I'll make sure you have an egg when you get back, but after this I'm out of favors. Forever, or until you pay me back, which I doubt you can." Lanua says with a little steel in his voice. He still remembers the servitude vividly.
You get on Lanua's back, mutter the spell, and almost instantly you move to a comfortable position. As he flies, you feel very little. You sigh, remembering how it was when you remembered how to do this well. Simple enough for this, but other stuff could go hay-wire later.
You reach the continent, noting that the caves are dark and plentiful.
