[b][i]"A black dragon? Hmm. Though my memory is missing information, a dragon... Is a rare creature, is it not?"[/i][/b] Buddy pondered this thought. [b][i]"Right. Drakes. Wyvens. That sort of thing, I think, are common in this world, but a true dragon... And a black one seems ominous. And Duke Erod Blackbane slew one. I hope this is true, if the dragon returns. I certainly hope you won't have to fight such a creature. They seem terrifying."[/i][/b] Buddy's voice was plain as usual, but seemed more so now. It was like he was trying to hide something. [b][i]"But for you to dream of dragons, surely this is a cruel fate. They are portents of destruction, if I remember correctly. What part you'll play... We shall have to see."[/i][/b] Soon Elena stood up and walked around the corner. "I need to do some business, Buddy. Stay on watch please." Buddy looked at her and then back to you. [b][i]"That does remind me, you may wish to clean yourself when we get the chance. We both smell of blood and gore."[/i][/b]
