The old men stared at An-Hasst with a smug grin after everyone else had their say in the matter. From the slew of information bestowed upon the group, with how the dragon was stirring up monster trouble, if any druids were in the area, and the fact that the dragon is possibly having it's own troubles, the group had a bit of work cut out for them, but it was nothing they couldn't do. The first order of business for the man to answer was the way that Alice was looking at him when she asked the question about druids, probably inquiring if the old man was a druid himself. [b]"Don't look at me like that Alice, I'm not a druid. I'm a wizbear- I mean a wizard."[/b] was the answer gave by Ursaren, followed by a [i]bluh[/i] like he mispronounced his words, which he somewhat did. It shouldn't really raise any suspicion though as the concept of lycanthropic bears is nonsensical to all but the incredibly well informed and the... well... gifted. Either way, the old man continued his wise old rambling.

[b]"Now, although I may not be a druid, I do know a slight bit about the rituals associated with nature and dragons and what-not. I can't honestly speak on the behalf of them though as I'm still very ignorant of the rituals, but the existence of druids within this forest is highly plausible. In any case we have to follow the advice my old grandpop gave me... 'Ursaren my boy, remember that an assumption is an assumption unless investigated', and as such we need to search this forest in order to properly find these druids that exist or don't exist and we have to obtain their help with this dragon. For those that oppose the idea of handling these dragons, we need to remember that if we don't handle this problem, there will be more monsters in this area tht will hamper our progress before we can even accomplish this goal, and we have the problem of that same dragon attacking while we try and proceed, leading us to truly just be done there. I say we confront this dragon before continuing. Anyone else with me?"[/b]
