The red-skinned dracon carefully observed the swing. It was much better. "Hmm. That was good, Smith. Nice form. Maybe you could follow through a bit better, but that was a solid swing. Now, do you know how to use any other weapons? Spears? Axes? A mace, perhaps? I've got them all here, pretty much."

"A job? Well, I could use his help" Ophion replied.
"Once he wakes up" Aurescia mentioned.
"Well, yes. He's asleep like a log. I won't bother him now." Ophion added.
"We should turn in for the night, and you too, Ennave. We can speak more in the morning" Aurescia explained.

"I think that attacking it is suicide. Their walls are strong, their army is larger than all of our forces combined, and even if we catch them off-guard, they will likely be able to recall their military way before we can breach their fortifications. And this assumes that we can spare every warrior we have to besiege them and that we don't leave a single one behind to protect Traeton" Rama explained.
"My lord, I beg you, don't attack anything else. We need time to consolidate our power, gather allies, and repair the city. Heck, we need time just to collect enough food to prevent starvation." Rama looked Rughoi in the eye, realizing that this was not working. He decided to change his strategy.
"You know... there's more to be gained by being a builder than a destroyer. This continent sees plenty of conquerors and marauders. Even if you conquer another city or two, you'll be less than a footnote in history. But how many kobolds actually create anything worthwhile? We can fix this place up better than its own founders, and it'll still be here a thousand years from now. There will be statues of you carved from the finest marble, and if you play your cards right, you'll have a dynasty in charge of this city centuries down the line. Now, what do you want to do, sire?"
