Valtor sweeps back from Nabbitt Farms with Dagg and Tarna riding his broad bronze back. Below, Devia’s town circle fills as citizens gather beyond the mayor and Elby.
Dagg Nabbitt
Okay, so now that the beef bison has been delivered to you, Valtor, and your clutch has been well fed, we will fly to Devia. Greet the citizens and state why you are here and for how long.
Valtor descends into the circle, stirring banners and dust without touching the gathered people. He lowers one wing as a living ramp, and Tarna steps down first.
Valtor
Citizens of Devia, my clutch is fed, and my ridge remains my home. I have come as your peaceful neighbor, with your protector’s word beside mine.
Valtor
I will remain only long enough to be known without fear, then return before dusk to guard my hatchlings. My word and my boundary will stand together.
The Mayor
Then Devia will record this visit openly. Valtor, if you accept, we will formalize your peaceful neighbor’s agreement before the town witnesses it.
A black raven waits on the council rail beside a sealed note, silent while the mayor reaches for the town ledger. The citizens watch Valtor, and the unopened message waits nearby.

SUCCESS (Superb Agility, rolled +2)
Nabbitt Farms receives them beneath a clear afternoon sky, its pasture grass whispering around the landing place. Tarna dismounts beside Dagg as the farmhouse windows catch the last gold of day.
The sealed note from Devia rests in Dagg’s hand. He breaks it open, reads the hurried warning, and horror crosses his face before he folds the message against his palm.
Dagg Nabbitt
Now that we have peace, Tarna and I have some matters to attend to back at Nabbitt Farms.
After the public farewell in Devia, Dagg waves to the gathered citizens and guides Tarna home. The dragon’s peaceful visit is recorded, and the bison tribute stands fulfilled.
At the farmhouse porch, Dagg keeps his voice low and draws Tarna beneath the overhang. Wind stirs the wheat while the unopened calm of home gathers around the secret he carried back.
Dagg Nabbitt
The letter says the Lich Queen has been spotted in a nearby town.
Tarna Óhagganlegur
Then we will decide what protects Devia and this farm without surrendering the peace we built. You do not have to carry the warning alone.
The note remains between them, its warning now shared. Beyond the porch, the farm settles into evening, while distant thunder rolls from the direction of the named town.
