- Play Games, Feel Better
- Standing at the base of a hill, our party finds themselves in a line of a larger force of people and they are wearing short tunics with a crest that matches the rest of the larger force and there are fire monsters with claws and burning red eyes who are only a bit taller than Zemma
- There is a river of fire that are actually fire snakes
- The crest is a golden shield in the center with two golden ravens facing into the shield
- The leader who called out to hold the line locks eyes with Soliana and says, "Marshall Ashara, guard the right flank!"
- Soliana turns and in a shaky voice says to her troop, "We're guarding the right flank. Which way is the flank?" in her shaky little voice

- Soliana casts Magic Missile on the FS and it melts back into a fire pool that was there and then there's a rumbling and the pool of fire forms into a fire tornado in the middle of the party

- Once the battle has fully concluded, the party learns that the fire beings are protecting a dragon.
- The legion of warriors with the crests arrived on this island by boat
- The dragon is big enough to have eaten some sheep and lives in a volcano.
- The warrior troop looks trained not just like punks, and they get a 20 krone per diem salary.
- Caleb takes Soliana up to the General and claims the fire melted his memories and asks for an explanation.
- The troops have been here for three days after coming from the mainland on a ship
- The troop is supposed to secure this area and then remove the dragon that has made its home in or near the volcano
- The are the legion from Ainor
- The General is General Howard
- Our troop is going to be sent on a reconnaissance mission in the morning
- Soliana remembers that Ainor was the predecessor of what is now the kingdom of Rhoanor and they used krone as currency
- Niniel uses Minor Illusion to create the image of a really nicely dressed looking person just in the peripheral vision of a couple of drinking soldiers and she hears them ask if that's Prince Thaylen but then they says that guy is too fat to be Prince Thaylen
- After she reports back in then goes back out to skulk around to the groups of soldiers and eavesdrop about anything interesting she can hear about who these people are and why they might be hunting this dragon beyond sheep. She gathers that people are very doubtful about their ability to succeed on this mission. There are also people questioning the necessity of taking out the dragon since the dragon was here first and the people are new to the area.
- "Marshal" Ashera "orders" her troop to get a long rest
- 800 XP ea for 4,500 XP total ea.
