The Dwarves and humans go to war taking care of two problems.
(Counter Dwarmin)However, Arogeth's stolen elven maidens woo's her over, and she quickly warms up to our studly dragon...hero...villain...oh shut up.
Burn the human siege weapons during the night. And the rest of the village.
-----------
The back of the dragon's lair collapses and now it's uncomfortable! Durn catapults!
While on a routine foraging expedition Arogeth gets in a tussle with a couple knights. Though he easily survives they managed to pray away a few scales from his neck area, creating a potentially fatal vulnerability. Since these were adult scales they won't grow back either. On the plus side he got a meal...
Turns out the Female Dragon (who we should name Tala, naturally) is a little more experienced than she lets on...and prefers Arogeth as a subordinate rather than an equal. She begins to exert her dominance over him.
(Dwarmin, M=3: 3. Krath, H=4: 4.) Tala initially plotted to make Arogeth her subordinate, but when he returnsed to the cave with fair young maidens she decided to hold off on those plans and see what else he was capable of bringing back to the cave. Maybe he would prove worthy enough to be at her side rather than as a lackey. (Taricus, M=3: 3.) Arogeth slept the rest of the day away in contentment after devouring his share of the maidens, and awoke to find the moon high in the sky. Now was as good a time as any, and he flew to the human village with one thing on his mind: revenge. The humans awoke and started panicking as their siege armaments - all made of wood - were brunt to cinders! The fire spread to some of the wooden buildings as well, and Arogeth flew away as they burnt.
(Theodolus, H=4: 5.) On his way back, Arogeth swooped down on what he assumed was a caravan of merchants, to eat the horses and perhaps plunder the wagons for gold. It turned out to be a convoy of knights passing through the area! He didn't realize it until he had already touched down before them, and a vicious battle ensued. None of the humans survived, but Arogeth is much the worse for wear, sustaining several light injuries and a pair of deep wounds from lances at the base of his throat. He is still young enough that the scales will grow back, but for the next several decades they will be weak points.
(V-Norrec, H=4: 1.) The dwarves send some supplies to the humans! They were on friendly terms; the siege weaponry had been traded to the humans for above-ground food such as berries to make alcohol from. The dwarves are not going to be happy about Arogeth's recent actions. >.> (Powder Miner, M=3: 6.) The cave is much older than Tala or Arogeth had believed, and some of the old supports in the back wore out. Passage to one of the most expansive rooms is blocked off by falling rubble; they could probably clear it out, but until they find the time to do so, they'll have to live in slightly closer quarters.

2nd 1/2 of February
Arogeth has made a home in a mountain, with an elven forest to the north, a human village to the east, the ocean to the south, and a dwarven society to the west. The dwarves and humans are both allied and firmly anti-dragon; the dwarves are well-armed and fortified, but the humans have lost their weaponry and most of their homes. He is sharing the cave (slightly more cramped due to a recent cave-in) with a female dragon named Tala. Arogeth is missing a few vital scales around his throat.
