After nursing their wounds from the blockhouse encounter, the team started across the courtyard when a pair of black dracolisks and a copper dragonkin swooped over the walls! Several of the defenders were petrified by the dracolisks’ gaze! The team rushed to their rescue and wisely deduced the dragonkin was keeping around 35 feet or so from the dracolisks. The group assumed this to be the range of the gaze attacks, and they endeavored to engage while averting their eyes. Deska cast ice spears from her icicle wand to great effect while Tulvur and Svala moved in. Greta blessed the party and cast bull’s strength on Svala. The team was doing an excellent job avoiding the dracolisk gazes, but finally, it caught up to them. Tulvur was turned to stone! Svala and Deska each killed a dracolisk, and then they converged on the dragonkin, and Svala cut it down before it could flee. The Triaxians then revealed the blood of a dracolisk, if applied within an hour, can restore the petrified to life! They were able to recover everyone who had fallen victim.
Badly depleted and injured, the team was able to rest. By midday the next day, the group witnessed a silver dragonkin, Shatha, under attack by a trio of Drakelands dragonkin! As they watched, a blast of lightning knocked him from the sky to crash to the ground nearby. The team rushed forward to assist. Greta cast bull’s strength on Svala once again. Enhanced, the orc barbarian rushed into battle and drove the blue dragonkin back with a barrage of blows. Deska attempted baleful polymorph on it but failed. Meanwhile, Tulvur charged the gold dragonkin. The white dragonkin charged Deska and then disrupted her second casting of baleful polymorph. Greta slipped over and healed Shatha as the dragonkin began unleashing their breath weapons. Between glaive attacks and breath weapons, the party was rocked with injury. Deska fought back with a trio of flame strikes! Svala dove in a decapitated the blue dragonkin! Deska used flame blade and killed the white dragonkin, and Tulvur and Shatha killed the gold dragonkin!
After the battle, they nursed their wounds, and Shatha and Tulvur recognized they made a great team. In appreciation for saving his life, Shatha performed a rider bond with Tulvur! The two can now communicate telepathically and coordinate their attacks.
