You have been brought to the sub-surface tower of of Vultania Gorge of the Dawn Rock Clan.

Where a redheaded dwarf in bronze colored master work armor is waiting for you.
He introduces itself as Acting sub general Farhorn and asks of you to sit down.

At sit people you may or may not have met before, some might be total strangers others might be close friends you have adventured with.
Among this group is; a Dwarf who looks a bit out of place,
A red headed human with hazel green eyes,
A human with cat like yellow eyes and a few scales on his body that are as silver as his hair,
A humanoid with bird like features some might recognize as a Raptoran
and a tiefling with maroon eyes.
Farhorn sits down takes out a white pipe smokes a little until he starts to speak.

"Greetings brave adventures. We the Dawn Rocks are in need of yer aid.
Not long ago we have discovered the burial grounds of one of our clans greatest saints. The War-Medic Gesti Vausra.
We have send a exposation there that has set up camp. Sadly as we speak there being assaulted by a Tiefling organisation called the Bezekira.
As the situation stands it's a stalemate...."
the dwarf pauses taking a deep tow of his pipe as he walks around the table toward you "But it will only be a matter of of time that our side will run out of moral, arrows."

Farhorn puts his ham sized hands on the Tieflings shoulder "Was it not for this Tiefling that deflected and protected the camp messager to give the word out of the predicament."

"These Tieflings in the cowardice use magical darkness to blind our brethren so we came up plan. Somewhere in the Underdark there Giant Scarab Beetles that have the natural ability to dispel this darkness. Our first attempt to guide these creatures to the camp let failure."

Once again he takes a deep tow out of his pipe.
"We are inclide to ask that you round up some beetles and escort these creatures camp."

The bird-man leans in.
Scarab beetles that can fend off magical darkness? Fascinating.
He thinks for a moment
Do you know anything about their diet? When my people wish to herd animals, bait is usually helpful in getting them to move.

Lan sits along, listens to what Farhorn has to say, looks around measuring everyone, and proceeds to speak.

This is quite a predictament I see. If it helps, I am willing to use all of my abilities to assist, though I must ask do you have any good ale Sir Farhorn for I am parched.

Looks at everyone again and stands up and bows.
Greetings everyone. My name is Lan. I just thought it be nice of me to introduce myself before we go too far into the subject at hand.

Lan then sits down after introducing himself, and looks at the tiefling and asks:

So why is it that you helped the messenger? Because to do so would require you to turn your back on your people, yet here you are. Not like I should ask though, I have done crazier things in my life and hopefully much much more in the future.

You all can call me Ryx, the silver haired man states plainly. The torchlight glints off a handful of visible scales that almost appear to be silver freckles. I'm really just happy that I can help in any way you need. I'm sure we'll figure out a way to get those beetles back here.

Kan looks up as people start introducing themselves.
Oh, right, introductions. I am Kanvanna Kethama, priest of the skies.

As an answer to Kanvanna question.
Farhorn puts a jar on the table "You drive them like you would a herd of cattle. It's the same thing expect their nastier temperament. In this jar is a mix of fruit, nectar and bug-spit our naturalist collect from some other beetles.
Trust me, open the cap, splash some around and they 'll follow.
Just don't douse yourself with it unless you want to get licked to death. Also use it sparly, there is only so much of the stuff."

Upon hearing getting licked to death, Lan seems to physically perk up

So you say they can be herded just like cattle with this substance to help? Well now this seems to be quite an entertaining notion as I have yet to do something like this. I always like doing new things no matter how crazy it may seem.

Lan literally sounds like this might be the most fun he has had in a while to all who hear him.

Sipping on his pipe once more the dwarf looks worried at the human.
"No, use the stuff as a last resort. the road is to long and dangerous."
