    Hishka looks over the items. "No. Other than harnessing the power of lightning I do not know how the tools are bewitched. Redeye took them from a slain cleric years ago. They have served him well."


    At Keston's enquiry Marzena responds, brushing back a lock of hair, her hands and jaw still bruised but at least the bones knitted back together now.

    "We will come with you" she says grimly, the soldiers behind her nervously clutching their borrowed tribal clubs. "Let's get this over with and get out of here. I have no need of a spellbook, thank you" she brandishes a wand regained from the lizardfolk.

    Your group moves carefully through the flooded tunnel for several hundred feet, Hishka pausing several times to dismiss grasping tendrils and roots that have been ensorcelled to guard the passageway. Eventually the ground rises out of the bog and opens into a large dark chamber. Beyond a wall of low rocks the wide chamber is covered with sallow water no more than a few inches deep, lapping at hundreds of pale leathery eggs. Against one side of the chamber is a much larger black egg the size of a small person.

    Beyond the egg chamber is a small dirt embankment with three chests. Beyond them the tunnel dips down again into a pool of stagnant scum-covered water.

    Keston waves to Marzena and Hishka to join the group in a huddle. After applying a charge from his lesser vigor wand on Marzena he speaks quietly.

    "Even if we get the eggs out of here, Ilthane won't give up her lair nor her egg and she could quickly smash the lizard eggs. We could threaten her egg to keep her at bay for a bit. She'll have to be killed. How big is she, bigger than Primus here? What else do you know of her? Assuming the dragon is even back there, beyond the chests. If not she becomes a long term problem for scale and scaleless. I can cast Silence back by the chests to cut off our sound, then Clairvoyance to see beyond them. Perhaps send the snake to explore back there? Obviously there is an exit out that way. Any other ideas?"

    Keston used Touch of Healing on her to get her up to half hp. This is the second lesser vigor spell used on her since then.

    Jhann

    "I don't know why I expected there to be fewer eggs." Jhann says, mostly to himself. "Well, nothing to be done but get started." He says and walks over to the edge of the water. "How much do you reckon these weigh, Hishka?"

    Kurnos points at the big egg. "No lizard laid that one. Let us look at that one. Does someone have fire to burn that one?" He moves cautiously through the water careful not to step on any eggs towards the big one. Dogs paddling by his side as they approach the massive egg.

    "Thank Semuanya the eggs are safe" breathes Hishka to Jhann, "I had thought that the dragon may have convinced Redeye to do something evil with them." As Kurnos approaches the large back egg the shaman speaks again "But that is not one of ours. It must be one of the wicked dragon's foul eggs." Looking closer it even seems to ripple and pulse slightly in a weird ghastly manner...

    As eyes turn toward it there is a flash of movement from behind the nearby low wall of rocks. Several small dark-scaled heads pop up, the small forward-sweeping horns and gaunt apearance attesting to the draconic nature of the kobold ambushers! With a series of 'twangs' a hail of missiles assails you! As you slowly react and gather yourselves the kobolds duck down, several popping up again to unleash another hail! Marzena raises her wand but Hishka steps in front of her blocking her way "No - the eggs!" he hisses "Do not harm our young!" He clutches a bloody claw at his bleeding shoulder where a small shaft protrudes.

    Bron sees the kobolds but is too late in his call to arms before they pelt the front of their group with darts. "We need to pull back, lure them into a fight away from the eggs!" he yells, as his shadowy companion bounds over towards them, trying to impede as many as it could.

    Keston calls out in draconic to the kobolds. "You defy the tribe and Ilthane?! Drop your weapons and some of you may continue to serve!"

    The cleric has full faith in his friends dealing with the kobolds quickly and instead focuses his eyes on the dragon egg. His first time getting to see one, and it is for an evil black and seemingly worm touched. He summons a protective shield against acid for himself. He steps to where Kuln had just been, next to Marzena. "If that thing hatches there will be eggs lost. The more we hold back the more that will be lost, though I agree a fireball is too much. Hishka, if you have magic to help against the egg I suggest you use everything you have. Perhaps your serpent can safely get close without trampling eggs. I do have Web and Scorching Ray for whatever comes out of it."

    Kuln mysteriously pops from shadows behind the contingent of draconic crossbow-wielding kobolds. Bron and Keston move forward slightly, their shouted comments almost drowned out as Jhann strides forward clambering atop the low stone wall. He brings his sword down on a hapless reptilian cleaving it almost in two. Heat shimmers within the slain kobold for a second before it bursts apart in searing flame sending a half dozen of it's nearby kin falling mortally wounded. Kurnos' hounds bound forward, the kobolds ducking and diving to avoid the savage attacks.

    "Please - no! Do not harm our young!" pleads Hishka. He utters a few words of magic and the roots and vines about the shallow pool all whip about grasping at friend and foe alike. Meanwhile the Hishka's snake companion slithers forward at a command, easily weaving about the combatants and eggs as it rears up fangs striking out trying to grab a kobold. The rescued soldiers hesitate, uncertain what to do. They heft their weapons and form a defensive mob in front of Marzena trying to protect their battlemage.

    Two of the remaining kobolds retreat, ducking through the roots and stamping eggs as they scramble back. The other three all draw slim blades and hack away clumsily at the vines entangling them as well as anyone else nearby.

    Jhann

    "Take care Kuln!" Jhann shouts. "I can't help from here!" He says as he glances at the thick roots and vines in front of him. Calling up the draconic blood within him, blue flames wash over him and his companions, the warding fatal to their enemies. Pacing back and forth along the edge of the overgrown weeds Jhann keeps an eye on the kobolds, shouting encouragement to Kuln.

    Kuln stabs and spars with his opponent but the two little combatants seem evenly matched. Primus snaps and tears at the two kobolds that find themselves next to the massive warhound, striking for 19, 9 & 11 damage ending the evil little creatures.

    Kurnos & Secondus move forward through the many eggs & the tangling roots. Kurnos throws a dart but it goes wide. Bron bids his dark companion forward and then concentrates his mind on the life energies about the room.

    Spoiler: Deathwatch
    Show
    He detects life in all of the lizard eggs (those that haven't been destroyed ), and also within the dragon egg.


    Hiska ushers his snake forward, the huge serpent sliding easily between the eggs and evading the tangling roots as it closes on the fleeing kobolds. A soldier grabs the crossbow from Keston and shoots it at the fleeing kobold, the shot a poor one. The grasping roots whip about in the water, grabbing two of the kobolds while the remaining one ducks and sidesteps, smashing through several eggs in its haste to get away. "The wand - it's useless here!" Marzena curses

    Keston see Kurnos already wading through the water to get to the dragon egg. Knowing the druid's intent Keston decides to call upon his last main offensive magic to deal and hope to deal with both the fleeing kobold and then the dragon egg. He casts a spell and a cloud of rotating bluish stars appear just short of the kobold. From it several of the stars shoot out attacking the kobold.

    Primus holds amidst the shattered and burned shells, broken lizard foetuses and the tangling weeds whilst Kurnos looks over at the last few kobolds that are sure to soon die by the rest of the team of the heroes. He pads forward with Secundus, both moving slowly and carefully through the shallow water and approaching the dragon egg to have a closer look.

    Bron was frustrated, he had no way to combat these things running from them, and so, following Kurnos, he took his time and approached the dragon egg, maybe he could help there?

    As he did he spoke out "there is still life within the egg"

    Keston casts his spell and a school of glowing stars swirls about the fleeing kobold, inflicting many cuts for 4 damage. Meanwhile Kuln disappears, the gnome no longer visible but his swords stabbing out, cutting down his opponent for 13 damage. The huge serpent lashes out at another, fangs slashing deep for 4 damage even as a crossbow bolt goes wide from one of Marzena's soldiers.

    Kurnos & Secondus, and Bron, move carefully over to the large evil-looking egg. Closer as they are, it is definitely pulsating slightly as if something within were moving about testing the strength of the leathery shell.

    With little hope against the party, the remaining two kobolds continue trying to flee. One is caught in the entangling roots and struggles trying to break free while the other deftly dodges and darts past his ally, almost reaching the far side of the egg pool and the freedom of the submerged tunnel beyond.

    Kurnos

    Looking at the massive and vile looking pulsing egg Kurnos looks at Bron. "Any ideas about what to do with this beastly looking egg?" Eyeing it carefully he looks at the base of the egg to see if it could be lifted or rolled somehow out of the lizard birthing chamber and preferentially into something like a refuse pit or a large bonfire. He glances over at the last 2 kobolds, happy that the rest will easily slay the little beasts. "I don't think I want to cut it open or break it. Does anyone have anything flammable?"

    The subject can take a full attack action to use all of its natural weapons or unarmed strikes as if they were thrown weapons with a 20-foot range increment. The subject gestures as if making a melee attack, but the result of the attack affects a target within range. This spell does not actually grant reach, and so does not help provide a flanking bonus or allow the subject to make attacks of opportunity at any range greater than normal. The subject uses its normal melee attack bonuses and deals damage normally if it hits, though the target of the attacks can benefit from cover or concealment.

    Spiritual Hammer continue hitting X17 if it is still up. Otherwise the stars return to me.

    As the kobold falls, Kuln surveys his surroundings. Knowing he can't catch the fleeing kobolds, the turns his attention to the eggs, being cognizant of not disturbing them any further.
    As Kurnos speaks, he touches various pouches on his body before responding.
    "I have some acid and alchemist fire." he says as he starts to slowly make his way over to the large egg.

    Keston's whirling cloud of magical shuriken swarm about one of the fleeing kobolds, the myriad cuts too much it falls limp among the lizard eggs in a growing pool of red. The last kobold ducks and darts, looking back at just the wrong moment as Bron hurls the lizard king's mighty trident. The electrical shaft skewers the evil wee creature and it keels over, quite dead.

    The others converge on the huge black egg as Hishka hurriedly darts forward to check on the remaining eggs, gently sniffing and stroking them as he makes his way around the spawning pool. The soldiers stand on guard but at Kurnos' request for fire Marzena speaks up "I have fire. Burning hands. It'll deal to that thing if we can get it away from the other eggs."
