The dragon flew right over Deshei's head, with a loud sweeping sound as its body cut through the air. More buildings burned, the dragon without a sign of stopping, but then something large struck its wing, causing it to lose some altitude, before struggling to climb again. It passed back over Desheis position, setting fire to the other end of the tavern, the flames quickly spreading along the building
Swearing, Deshei clumsisly paced to a safe area, to lie down in his useless state.
"You sir!" A man called, running at him from the road to Deshei's right. He stopped infront of him, panting for a breath.
Deshei recognised him at once, he was the guard who let him into the village, after giving him his personal details.
"You're a freelancer, correct?" He panted.
Trying his best not to give away the fact he was so intoxicated, he nodded with all his concentration. "Yeah... what do you want?"
Trying to shout over the comotion, the guard spoke again "This dragon is several centuries old, and has lived in the nearby mountains for years!"
BAM!!!
A nearby explosion rained fire over their heads, possibly an exploding barrel of black powder.
"Go on!" Deshei ordered, louder still, as the beating of the dragons wings grew louder.
"It hasn't troubled anyone the entire time it's lived in those mountains, we have no idea why its behaving like this! We need you, aswell as the help of others to get to the dragon's cave and find out why the dragon is acting like this, and if neccessary, kill the dragon!" The guard finished
"Are you crazy?! A dragon?! We need alot of supplies to fight a dragon! We need flameproof materials, a ballista with iron tipped bolts, many skilled men, the list goes on!" Deshei yelled in anger, aswell as over the noise.
"Whatever! Just follow me to the town centre! let our defenses take care of the dragon for now, its looking like it may flee soon!" The guard then began jogging back in the direction he came, Deshei struggling to follow behine, in a pursuit of dodging and manouvering around burning buildings and the dragons attacks.
