As we join the party for this round of tomfoolery, Infernius is residing comfortably in the Tower. Tay is also, despite a rebuke from Thez, and likewise Torcuil is resting comfortably.

On other fronts, several of Trump's Generals have been burned alive by acid, while others feebly attempt to fend off a dragon with their bows. Trump and Tracy speed in to aid the scenario, while Fae attempts to direct combat and help PCs and NPCs alike to live another day.

Welcome back to the Game, we're in the middle of murder so please don't mind my lack of descriptions/invitations, lets continue shall we?

Get in Melee range. Vanderiem does more than twice as much damage as s long now, and I get attack bonuses for him I don't with longbow. He's an awesome weapon, and the bow is not even remotely close to an equal

A dragon's wing is it's most vulnerable spot. Her sword isn't doing shit on it's neck.
Also, I hope to prevent it from flying up and covering the whole forest in acid.

You're right, sorry. I took a moment to fun-post
Dice is the most recent volley of arrows. As they fly, the area around the Generals is magically darkened, and at the same time the dragon retreats into the safety of the bog. It is at this point that Tracy and Trump come onto scene, unable to engage but still undetected and at elevation.

Meant to delet that.
Anyway, it couldn't hurt to find out its intentions. If it's just hunting, it might just swim off, but if it's looking to prevent anyone from finding its territory, that's a lot more to worry about.

Falling back (in context) results in a scattering of the Trolls. They weren't really a threat to begin with (most of their males died in the last excursion anyhow), so they're in emergency/damage-control mode anyhow. Doing so gives breadth from the dragon tho.

So as I see it there are a few ways to proceed on this:

Have Tracy go ethereal to look in the water and ground for the hiding spot of the dragon

After everyone else is in the non-bog area, come back on Fae and hope the dragon attacks

Do the same as above but on Tracy, making loud noises to get the dragon to attack

Black dragons aren't fish: they know better than to take that kind of bait. Also, it can spray us from hiding.
If you want it to expose itself, you're going to need something irresistible.

The plan is escort the troops to the other side away from the bog, have them kill the trolls, then come back and figure out how to get the Dragon to fight us

Black dragons are cowards. They are more likely to attack 10 soldiers with no paladin and cauchemar than 10 soldiers with a paladin and cauchemar. The only way to go is forward, and we'll look for ways around the swamp when the are out of range of the big, where the dragon is at the moment. Stay next to the bog so the dragon knows we are on it
