You set off towards the Academy, picking your way though a mass of refugees, merchants, soldiers, and all manner of other travelers. However, as you pass the devastation wrought by the dragon your curiosity gets the best of you. Could they have already cleared away the beast's corpse? Could you perhaps find one of the dragon's scales dislodged at some point during the battle, or after its demise?

You turn your guar sharply, breaking away from the crowd and entering the devastated market district. Rubble is strewn everywhere, the cobblestones blackened and cracked by the heat of the dragon's breath. A few intrepid traders have already set up market stalls in prime real estate now vacated by the previous occupant due to the attack. You wonder how many perished in the blaze, and how much wealth was lost in the attack.

You follow the destruction as it winds its way through the city, interrupted occasionally where the dragon presumably took flight. The streets are largely abandoned in this area, though you see a few people peeking out at you through windows and a handful of children playing in the street, some sort of ball game you're unfamiliar with. They're trying to smack a leather wrapped ball through a hoop on the wall of a building with a knobbly club.

You see the spines of the dragon's corpse from a distance but it isn't until you enter a plaza that you see the corpse itself. It's massive, easily forty feet long with a wingspan twice or three times that. The wings have already been stripped to the bone, presumably to be used as leather, and the head has been chopped off. A number of commoners are engaging in some sort of tunneling operation into the neck of the beast, carving out its meat for steaks and who knows what else. A few are trying to break off the skeletal wings or saw through the scales, but they don't seem to be having much luck.

You don't see any guards around, so presumably it's some sort of free for all. You might be able to snap off a scale using Earth Magic, but if they're as resistant to Earth Magic as they are to fire you'll have trouble doing so. You could also see about jamming a lever underneath a scale and trying to pop it off, but some peasants are trying to do just that and having no luck, or very little luck. A team of six has managed to pry a scale partially off but one of them slips and the lever snaps.

How on Earth did they manage to remove the head in the first place without carving through the scales? Perhaps a team of Vatis managed it.

But use the Hiacian sabre to cleave it, would be silly to use it as a lever instead.

>>40072387
If we're going for the tail, don't we also have a Hiacian Saber that is sharpened by infusing it with vys? Wouldn't infusing it with Metal make it even sharper, maybe?
If only we could figure out how to apply the rot function of Water to nonbiological things...
Maybe Metal+Water? Water+Metal+Poison+Earth?

>>40072209
>Try to carve off a scale with Earth magic.

>>40072430
I remember Soma saying poison+fire would be acid

>>40072209
>See if you can't pry a scale off, with Regulus' help of course.
No steak.

>>40072448
If anything, that'd have to be combined with Water as well for that, and I imagine poison+Water would just be a poison.

>>40072209
>Take the whole tail, you brought these things here, you have a claim to their meat.

>>40072430
The rot function only applies to biological things because only biological things can rot.

>>40072475
I love that logic.

>>40072524
But metal can rust, for instance.

>>40072475

Looks like taking the tail and levering off the scale with the Elaudian Blade and a mix of Earth, Metal, and Water magic.

I think most people support cleaving off the tail with your Hiacian Sabre.

>>40072657
Anon, the tail is massive, we can't carry it around.
People are making a TUNNEL into its neck, its tail at the base would likely be like 3 or 4 meters thick at least. Assuming a length of 10 meters)which is a low estimate on my part), that's at least 42 cubic meters of dragon flesh and bones and scales and whatnot(not entirely accurate, since I calculated with a regular cone, but this was a low of the low estimate anyway).

>>40072956
What I meant to add on to this is a cart shouldn't require that much Vys betweenthe sword and the.pendent we should be good

Can we try wrapping the cloak around the tail and channeling vys into it to flip it and thus cut it off?
If it doesn't work do the other thing.

>>40072919
We serious don't have enough vys for that. We would need more than what we currently have.
>>40072956
>>40072973
That exponentially increases with the size and this thing's tail is big.

>use the vys we stored on vys to anime the body of the dragon like a puppet and make it dance.

>>40072979
Test that with something less deadly in case the object just gets ejected out of the cloak, because what we could fit into the cloak of its tail could totally kill us by just blunt damage.
Get a stick and test it on that.
Or, hell make an ice rod, or grow some plants, and test it on that.

After we get the tail, shall we carve up some dragon meat for Ricky? I mean this is only possible because of him.

I agree.

You draw the small ivory statuette from your cloak, pressing down on a hidden lever concealed among the elaborate carvings. A blade springs forth, fully formed from the handle. It's short, but it's also unbreakable so far as you're aware. It ought to serve well as a lever.

You glance briefly towards Regulus before dismounting. “Come on, let's try and pry off one of these scales. Some associates of mine want one as research material.” Regulus nods, before dismounting himself and following you up to the dragon.

You look around, finding a particularly large and thick scale near the abdomen. It takes some wiggling but you manage to get the sword underneath the scale. You lean your weight against it, but neither the sword nor the scale bend an inch. Frustrated you start to channel vys, pressing your hand against the scale and weakening its connection to the dragon's flesh. It's slow going, you find yourself pumping ridiculous amounts of vys into the scale for very little gain. Eventually you start to see holes form in the base of the scale, so you cut off the flow, but you're already feeling slightly drained.
>Vys Pool: (43/53)

You motion Regulus over and you both put your all into lifting the scale by leveraging the sword. You see the scale start to slowly bend away from the surface of the dragon, so you start to condense water from the air and push it into the gab. You move incrementally, freezing the water to push the scale further from the surface of the dragon and then holding it in place with the sword while you melt the water, condense more to fill the gap, and then refreeze it.

Just realized it would have been more appropriate to call it ChryssagrapplesZahak

Snapping rings through the clearing as the scale starts to come free. Sweat pours down your brow, and your muscles burn from the exertion. You can hear Regulus' internal components squealing as he tries to apply yet more force to the sword. Something is going to have to give, and it won't be you. You start to channel metal magic into your limbs and torso, reinforcing them as you dig your heels into the cobblestones and drive your shoulder into the flat of the blade. Finally there's one last, loud snap and you smash into the dragon's flank, the scale flying off its side.
>Vys Pool: (37/53)

A crowd of peasants had gathered to watch you and Regulus work, and one of them happens to be in the path of the scale you managed to snap off. It clocks him in the forehead, knocking him flat on his ass. He seems to be unconscious, blood welling up from a cut in his forehead. Meanwhile the scale rebounds, twisting through the air for a moment before coming to clatter against the street a few feet from you. The crowd eyes you warily as you pluck up the scale, and heal the commoner who got clocked with a dismissive wave.

You tuck the scale into your cloak before someone tries to nab it, wiping your sleeve across your forehead to keep sweat from your eyes. Collapsing the sword, you toss it into your cloak as well. You step back a few feet to admire the dragon, noting that the scales seem to be part of the dragon's skeleton rather than its skin. Underneath it has a thick, rough hide.

(2/3)

You start to move towards the tail, inspecting it. The plates near the tail are smaller, and generally held closer to the hide beneath. You want to snag the entire thing, but near the base it's far too think to fit into your cloak. You'll need to take it a good five or six feet down the tail if you want It to fit inside your cloak. You could probably use your Hiacian Sabre to hack away at it, it might take a few tries but it should get the job done.

An idea occurs to you. You can reverse the polarity of your cloak, switch which side opens up into the void and which side is more or less mundane. You wonder what would happen if you switched the polarity while it had something inside of it? Might be an easy way to cut something large. Might rip open a portal to the void.

>>40073641
seriously, we did it the first time on accident and then once more, in anthus i believe trying to figure out what it was doing, but the drain was too much

Or you could take the sword that doesn't break and hack the tail off. Might take a bit longer but a hell of a lot safer.

>>40073655
That wasn't trying to portalcut the prison, that was the cloak's magic-negation fucking up Balediv's control over it.

>Number One, put Wesley on the Torpedo tube. I don't know how but I am certain this is his fault. You may fire when ready.

Make it so.

You wander down to the tip of the tail, removing your cloak and struggling to lift the massive limb in any meaningful way. Eventually you get the tip in, and start to shimmy your cloak over the rest of the tail. It's time consuming but with Regulus' help you manage. You get it as far up the tail as you can manage, which ends up being about fourteen feet. The last two are just too thick to fit inside the cloak.

Then you channel vys into the cloak, and there is a gut wrenching ripping noise. It seems to fill the world, drowning out all other sound. You feel a pressure against your chest and then you're flying through the air, a ringing filling your ears. You have the good sense to pull your head forward and shield it with your arms so that when you smash into the wall of a building it's with your shoulders, not the back of your head. It hurts, but you'll survive.

You just sit there for a few moments before pushing yourself slowly to your feet. Aylin is shouting at you, though you don't hear her speaking. Just a high pitched whine. You push her aside and wander over to your cloak, where it sits tattered on the ground. It's been ripped down the middle, almost all the way through, and shredded besides. More like a collection of rags than a proper cloak. No longer is the fabric an almost impossibly dark black, but rather a dull brown. You pick it up, finding the fabric coarse. You almost panic, before you notice thin strands of fabric stretching themselves across tears and stitching them back together. The progress is achingly slow, but hopefully given enough time your cloak will be functional again. You're not sure about the dragon's tail though. The point where it's cut off has been splintered, and scales have shot off in ever direction. Some are embedded in the walls of surrounding buildings. It's a miracle that nobody seems badly hurt.

(1/2)

Channeling magic, you heal your ears. You had a number of fractured bones and a busted ear drum. The pain in your shoulders lessens just as your hearing comes flooding back to you. Some of the commoners are shouting, though you're not really paying attention. Aylin keeps asking if you're alright. You hear stone clatter against stone as Regulus hauls himself from a pile of rubble. Seems he crashed through the wall of some sort of shop. He's covered in brick dust and dented, but seems otherwise fine.

For now you drape your cloak over your shoulders and stand, turning to ruffle Aylin's hair. “I'm fine, just a little stunned. My cloak is ruined though. Come on, lets get you to the Academy. All my money was in my cloak, so there's nowhere else we'll be able to stay.”

Regulus is already buffing out the dents in his surface, magic pouring off of him as he does so. “I will not be going with you.” His strange, warbling voice rings out across the silent clearing. “I must go to Aleamond. There is much to be done. Rhynia must be restored. I will be the one to do so.” He states decisively.

Fulvia would be all for it. If she did want to study him.

Can we attune him to our network so he can call us?

If we just build an Airship already we won't have to use the cloak to store all of our stuff. We'll just store it there and gear up whenever we leave.

>>40074731
I feel this is a reasonable request.
You faggots better agree.
Ask him for a crash course on enchanting, and how to best use it. He studied/was made by/worked under the one of the best enchanters to ever live. The least we could ask him for is for some basic tips on enchanting. before we potentially never see him again.
easily gain an easier way to enchant shit, possibly learn how to take the soul of other things to use for inchanting instead of using our own.
What we could use to contain spare souls.
How to take souls and put them into these containers.

We just make it so that Humans and elves are only allowed to breed with Samjans. Same with halfbreeds.

In 100 years there are no more pure humans/elves.

In 500 years there are none more than a quarter human or elf.

1000 years later and there are no one remembers humans or elves.

>>40075733
Just provide a stipend to the public to any samjan who fathers a halfbreed child.

So first we take over Pidjata, then we move on the mountains and (forcibly or non forcibly) assimilate the mountain samjans. From there we Conquer the provinces and force our captured humans and elves in to martial training programs for a generation or two. Then use them to march on Alemond, Many should die in the fighting on both sides. We'll win once we actually start fighting and not just chinaing them,

We might actually have a chance of seeing the end of Banished Quest before the year's out, if Soma could actually manage to avoid rescheduling threads every single week.

bye and goodnight y'all, you should have just thrown the cloak on the dragon and let Ricky rip it apart or in another way figure it out

1. get to the Shah and get rights to buy land
2. buy cheap farmland(which is cheap due to the scarcity/price of water)
3. while our father and SK works on the water plant we can either start by getting our GM robes or start by traveling to buy wood which we for the most part use to build up our family's fleet but can also be sold to finance the purchase of even more farmland(personally i'd like to buy it all for maximum money gains and pop growth)
4. finance SK anti air research for dragon protection
5. ???
6. profit

we build a fleet. Under our own name once our name is cleared.
And have our father use the ships and he gains a % of all profits made from the ships. But they are ours. And he will be the one making a % of profits under us. It will be basically his fleet just he only makes a % of profit he wouldn't have otherwise made. Give him economies of scale when he wants to by large bulks. And we're family so he should be to against dealing and helping us excel in business.

You walk up to Regulus, offering your hand. He stares at it for a moment before clasping your hand, shaking it slowly. “I've enjoyed traveling with you, for what it's worth. I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.” That's not entirely true, you don't look forward to a restored Rhynian Empire with an army of Rhynian constructs marching across the world conquering all comers.

Regulus stares at you in silence for perhaps a minute. “The same to you, Mikhael. I appreciate your acceptance of me as a traveling companion. Should our paths cross again, I will remember the kindness you have showed me.” Well that's a relief. If the construct army ever reaches the borders of the Shahdom you ought to be safe.

There is one other thing you wanted to ask him though. He worked under one of the greatest enchanters of all time. Surely he could pass on some nugget of advice. “Regulus, before you go. I've wanted to ask you for a while. Do you have any advice you could give me regarding enchanting? The art has been lost, but I've managed to piece together enough information that I consider myself a fair hand at the art. The foremost remaining expert, although that's not really saying much.”

Regulus once more falls silent, staring at you for what seems like an hour before he speaks. “I can tell you that you should never enchant without the proper equipment. Magnifying lenses are a must for properly engraving runes on small surfaces. Powerful Metal and Earth magics, to create the best materials for enchanting and carve runes onto surfaces. If you do not have a meditation chamber, I suggest you create one. Basic meditation chambers are simply metal pods designed to block out all light and sound, allowing you to cut out other distractions. Useful for finalizing enchantments. Small doses of Spice are likewise important in enchanting, although abuse can cause addiction. It allows one to more easily manipulate the soul.”
(1/3)

I wonder what Ricky's opinion on us fucking up the cloak is.

File: Aylin Katsaros - Alt.jpg (118 KB, 600x851)

He pauses again, and you're about to thank him for his advice, but then he resumes speaking. “My creator always kept a dagger with her, her tool. Tools need not be daggers, or weapons of any sort. Some use necklaces, others bracelets. I know that one of my creator's rivals used an urn containing his father's remains. It does not matter what the item is so long as it is of personal significance to you. It could be a rock or a stick and serve just as well as anything else. The tool helps one center themselves, and from what my creator told me it allows one to more easily manipulate the strings of reality.”

Regulus nods, releasing your hand. “That is all that I can tell you. If I were to go on we would be here all day and I wish to depart.”

The two of you separate, and he sets off towards the docks. He doesn't take his guar. You wonder how he'll earn passage on a ship, or if that's even what he intends. You wonder if you'll ever see him again. If nothing else, he was an interesting fellow. Regardless, you turn to Aylin with a sigh and start to make your way towards the guar. “Come on, then. Not far to the Academy. You can take his guar, if you don't mind riding bareback.”

Aylin proves to be a surprisingly adept rider, better than you are by far. Soon you're riding through the gates into the Upper District, the streets widening significantly and the amount of trash and detritus in the streets lessening dramatically. The guards don't give you any trouble. Apparently you've acquired enough of a reputation that people recognize you, at least in Anthus. The guards at the entrance to the Academy grounds don't try to stop you're passage.

Get the fuck out of here.

You stop in front of the grand double doors, just as resplendent as they were before you crashed them open with a boulder of ice. Dismounting, a stableboy runs out to take your guar and lead them over to a trough where they can mindlessly feed on moist slop. Aylin seems apprehensive, sticking close to your side and eyeing everyone suspiciously.
