“Traveling in broad daylight invites trouble,” Roth says, and you nod. “We have a safehouse in Thrushville—a low-value but well-placed Infiltrator who serves as an innkeeper and who hosts traveling agents as required. But the ‘Dragonborn’, as you call him…”
Roth looks to his ‘cousin’, simultaneously so much greater and(certainly to his sensibilities) lesser with obvious confusion as to how to interact with it, or even to refer to it. The Dragonborn looms over him, bristling with some sort of tension—a rivalrous desire to oppress a lesser dragon and assert territorial dominance, perhaps? Roth takes a step back.
“He is large,” Roth says, stating the obvious problem plainly.
“I suppose we could hide him in the forest nearby…” Alhazred suggests. “All or some of us could remain with him, to… Supervise.”
“We could also find another farmhouse nearby and slaughter the humans inside, then sue their barn to house him until nightfall,” Roth suggests. “Fewer moving parts, in that plan. No surviving witnesses. We can cover the slayings with a fire, afterwards.”
‘That’s this guy’s solution to everything,’ Irinnile scoffs. ‘But, uh… We could just brainwash ‘em, too. Maybe they have a cute farmer’s daughter type? Or son? Ooo, or both! Double the pleasure, triple the fun!’
Henzler, whether due to her single-minded focus on her research notes or her enthrallment, says nothing about any of the proposed plans.
"Hrrrungar," the Dragonborn grunts, its speech faculties clearly not much improved for all its captivity with scholarly folk like Alhazred and Henzler. "WANT."
The dragonborn gestures at some sheep, and other livestock, which you can see roaming the distant hills of one such neighbouring acreage.
What do you do?
>Hole up in the forest until nightfall, and hope to pass unnoticed>Leave the Dragonborn and other conspicuous chimeras hidden in the woods [with who to supervise?] while you [and who else?] attend this Infiltrator’s inn>Pay a ‘visit’ to a nearby farmhouse [specify if you go for mesmerism or murder as a mechanism to take it over]>Write-in
