Buddy nods, going over to the egg. It was already resting in a basket of sorts so he would have no problem holding onto it, though it was big and bulky, thus requiring both his arms. Shortfang happily took the arrows and stuffed them into his quiver. Though they wouldn't be able to fit his crossbow in their current state, you've seen him convert normal arrows into bolts before. With the loot gathered the party leaves the fortress and meets up with Aisha. Kor was also back with his team as the kobolds put out the fires and manned the walls. Aisha informed the team that Yorik went back to hold the rear while Longstrider and Cera took one of the Sewer Dragons back to Underhaven. For now, the other two Giant Crocodiles will stay here and help secure Dragon's Watch, and hopefully the kobolds will be able to settle in before long. To ensure a safe journey, Kor and his team of kobolds escorted you, Shor, and everyone else back to Underhaven, along with any wounded from the battle.

When you arrive there was a certain air of celebration for the kobolds. They were victorious this day, despite some of the loses they took. Brave warriors made sure their home was not only safe, but they regained what was lost. Skinwalker spotted her son and ran up to hug him, thanking the group for keeping him safe. "Thank you thank you! My son, safe. My son, hero. All you, hero." Skinwalker went up to you in particular, reaching for your hand so she could press it against her forehead. Shortfang helpfully explained what she was doing. "This kobold blessing! You touch kobold forehead, means you bless Kobold because you help them lots." He seemed a bit embarrassed that his mother was doing this, but he wasn't going to stop her. "Skinwalker make dress, for you. Tonight, Skinwalker find you, give dress. Okay?"
