Dreamscapes and Dragon Lairs

Buck, Mr. Fahrenheit, and Rigline jolted awake. None could see anyone or anything around them. They each seemed to be chained to a murky wall by ethereal looking bonds. Mr. Fahrenheit channeled his anger into ripping himself free from the wall and when he succeeded, he blipped out of existence. Rigline, and then Buck, each were able to free themselves from their constraints and blipped out of existence as well.

Mr. Fahrenheit awoke once again. This time on the deck of The Raleigh, the ship he was stationed on after becoming First Mate. He was confronted by the Captain of the ship, Chester Porter, who looked quite dead, but was standing in front of Conley. Captain Porter accused Mr. Fahrenheit of causing the ship to sink and told him he needed to make it right. A storm kicked up again, threatening the Raleigh. Mr. Fahrenheit ran to the side of the ship and jumped overboard. Everything went black.

Buck found himself in a familiar alley from his childhood. Buck saw two children that he once tried to save from being bullied. This time, when the bullies moved to attack the children, Buck used his breath weapon to fend them off. Shortly after Buck moved the children to safety, things went black.

Rigline woke up before a performance with his family. He went out on stage when it was his turn, and instead of playing a song, he vomited over everything. When confronted by his family, Rigline chose to run away and the world faded to black.

Buck, Mr. Fahrenheit, and Rigline all found themselves standing in front of an image of a man. The man introduced himself as Telrose of the Twilight Hour. Telrose offered the three a chance to right some of the wrongs of their past. In order for them to do so, they would have to retrieve an item, an orb, for Telrose. The orb was something Telrose believed would help him with his own growth. When the companions agreed to help, they were suddenly transported to a cold tundra.

Upon arriving in the tundra, Buck, Mr. Fahrenheit, and Rigline took in their surroundings. The area looked like it used to be a lush, verdant, location. However, everything was encased in ice, almost as if it had been flash frozen. On the horizon, the three spotted an ice-like cave and made their way towards it. Exploring the cave was slow going, but eventually they came upon a large room. Buried in the ice within the room were Beldor, Euptellea, Bodo, and Dreld. As they rushed in to free their friends from the ice, four dragon wyrmlings attacked! Buck fell unconscious for the first time since joining the Fateful 8, but in the end, the three prevailed over the wyrmlings and Rig mocked yet another poor creature to death.

After rescuing the rest of their friends from the ice, the Fateful 8 explored the rest of the cave, eventually finding a sleeping crystal dragon. Beldor and Buck began searching through the dragon's hoard when they were attacked by a mimic disguised as treasure. The mimic gave off a loud alarm which awoke the dragon. Rigline tried to reason with the dragon before it attacked, but it was of no use. The dragon attacked and held the upper hand, until Dreld was able to find the white orb within the dragon's hoard. Grabbing the orb, Dreld released Telrose from the prison who promptly turned the crystal dragon into a human, ending the fight. Telrose then bestowed boons on all who helped him escape and the Fateful 8 awoke in their beds in Port Solaris.
