Chapter 2 - Oblivion and Sand
There was a low rumble from inside the dragon, as Qvan cleared his throat. He slowed down and the noise of the wind receded.
"Those are our options Zhira, and neither seems very good..." he said slowly. Realising that communication was not that easy, he cast a simple spell to link the four adventurer by mental speech. Message
"We cannot put them out of their misery. This is just what the city guards were instructed to do ––albeit clumsily–– and we nearly got into a fight with them over it," he explained in a murmur.
"Leaving them does not seem much better, but we should factor in this: they will travel to the source of the Curse, that much we know. They will not head for Dimayen, and if they travel in a straight line across the dunes, they are unlikely to encounter travellers."
"I suggest we get closer to see if anyone is safe and sane. If so we take them with us, and leave the others be... we can always come back for them tomorrow, and then follow them to the source. Who knows, they might meet us at Blood Rise Rock..."
The gold dragon turned his head around to see his companions, looking for a consensus.
