"No no, you are welcome to stay. It is some of the others I am not sure about. This human tied up on the ground... well we dont know if she is neessarily bad or not... She wont tell us... Maybe you could help?"

Carefully, the small dragon walked over to the woman tied up on the floor. Despite her size, as long as a man was tall, there was something adorable about the large green eyes and childish features as Tormantineth looked down into the woman's face. It was the charm all young babies could inflict on any goodly creature, making them want to hold and cuddle and declare the baby to be the cutest thing alive. Cats have the same power, no matter what the age, but a baby dragon had the additional advantage of speech.

Hi. I'm called Torma... stopping there, feeling like telling her whole name would be a bit much What's your name? The dragonette's head tils in absolute curiosity waiting for the woman to answer.

(ooc: If need be, I can use my Charisma against her... )

As the brilliant Spellfire energies rushed back into Malkamar, he adjusted his sleeves slightly, glancing at the dragon. "The odds. The sheer odds." He mused absently. "Someone get a priest of Tymora to lay odds on this coincidence." Now far easier to look at, no longer blazing like dawn, the archaic and artistic nature of his equipment became noticable. "Artinius. What a cute companion. I trust you called for more than a baby dragon and a tied up woman?"

Astinius actually smiled.. He loathed most living beings but couldnt help but think that baby dragons WERE the cutest things in the multiverse. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that his master never summoned dragons to violate him...

"Well the tied up woman was a by-product of our last fight. She wont even tell us her name, but we had to consider hor at least mildly hostile after she tried to cast Power word Kill... I Think Torma here was attracted by your last display of spellfire." Astinius chuckled. The horrible cuteness of the dragon taking the edge off of all the wierd people who had showed up over the last few minutes.

Tormantineth did notice that Malkamar was no longer the GloweyShiney. Awwwwwwww.. You're just a human.... And yes, the dragonette was pouting in disappointment, just as any 6yr old would do.

"'Just' a human." Malkamar shook his head, glancing to Artinius. "No appreciation for the last of Mighty Netheril, eh? Not even from dragons. No matter. And the rest of this... Collection? Do-Gooders out to free slaves, as I understand the chaos outside. I never thought you had it in you."

Astinius actually goes up and puts an arm around the young dragon*it is sooo cute(rolled a 15+6 on the reaction check... normally I subract an arbitary number due to loathing... but not for dragons)*

"Dont worry... he will glow again once a mage decides to attack him"

"I may loathe most people.. but even humanoids dont deserve to he held as slaves. I know all to well how that feels... I dont know who half of these people are..."

Astinius looks around the group*rolls reaction checks for people he doesnt know. Assume that if you were in the fight,he at least respects you*

He looks at the hald fragon with a bit of disgust, the barbarian wasnt much better. It was obvious they were either sexually active, or actually lovers..."stupid fleshies" he mumbled to himself... They could earn his respect like the rest had...

He acknowledge Rahnort's existence...

By this point, Tormantineth is sitting up on her haunches, balanced by her tail... which puts her head even with Astinius', yet her attention was fully on Malkamar.

Netherese? how can you be Netherese, they all died when the cities fell because that silly human mage thought he could be a god which is really silly if you think about it a human can't be a god that's just silly so you can't be a Netherese sincethey'realldead so whoareyou?

"You have been studying... But a few Netherese survived the fall and retreated into the city of shade on the Plane of Shadow. Malk here has left that city and now travels the prime material plane."

"In short, everyone hates me or wants me to experiment on, I have no kinfolk, and life has, in general, been quite amusing." A small smirk crossed the Channeler's face. "So. We have a fine bevvy of individuals, who, alone, could probably smash a small orc invasion. But we're all together. What do we have plans for?"

And yes, just to further prove that this is a Child Dragon, not anywhere near grown:

Why?

"Well first thing is first, we get this one*looking at the woman* to at least give us her name... then maybe her age, what she does for a living, and who she works for, if applicable... Then, we get out of this city before the guild finds us"

"From what he told me... It was a magical accident that ripped him from his homeland."

Why? Unless these were the ones that kicked over the anthill this time.

Oooooooooh. spoken in gradual comprehension, before turning to Malkamar Do you miss your mommy?

"Well you know that mass of people running around in the streets? we did that... We freed the slaves at the gladatorial arena.. and now every guard and mage in the city is either looking for the slaves, or trying to hunt us down."

"You simply can't do anything quietly, Artinius, can you? I must admit I have the problem myself..."

The dragon's question gave Malk pause, but he shrugged after a moment. "I miss many things. Life was easier once. But we grow up."

Ooooooooooooooooooooh.. more comprehension Slavery is bad, according to mama... so you did a good thing but the guards want to hurt you for it? Why?

"It isnt like we could have freed all those slaves quietly..."

**The name is Astinius**

"Well the gladiatorial fights ment a lot of money to a lot of people. Including the soldiers. You will learn very quickly that the law is not always right, and sometimes, bad people get to make laws, like making it legl to have slaves."

The dragonette's head tilts, eyeing Malk thoughtfully. Do you need a hug? Mama said that hugs make everyone feel better..... unless they're evil, because evil people don't understand hugs, so all you can do is breathe on them.

Nothing like the wisdom of a Mother Dragon, is there.....

"Yeah... Slaving scum... And what is this about the Purple Lady Festhall... *points to inside the book* I have heard some bad rumors about that place"
