A dragon flew into town from the north-west. It unleashed fire, chaos, and destruction on Nightveil! It swooped in and started burning and eating the Clark’s live stock. By the time it had finished, the farm was burning. Thankfully the dragons entrance and the screams of the Clark family as they fled their home didn’t go unnoticed. The guard and a few brave citizens immediately went into action. Saied rang the town bell to alert everyone of the trouble while Lien gathered some supplies and headed into the tunnels to established shelter for anyone who made it down there to hide from the beast. [Anyone unable to attend the event can safely assume their character managed just that.] Adreanna and Daryel went to round stragglers up and get Saied out of the bell tower as Zarkaylia, Kane, and Zaria all went to help the Clarks and see what fresh nether the Forbidden lands had unleashed on their town.

The ringing of the town bell had drawn the dragon's attention, he spotted the Clarks as they attempted to flee and gave chase. Only to be diverted by a well aimed and narrow miss of its eye from one of Kane’s throwing knives. Outraged at the attempted attack the dragon chased Kane instead. The brewery and the forest surrounding was set afire when much to the beasts frustration, Kane disappeared into the forest with a terrified Hara.

The beast turned back just in time to find that Zaira and Zark had been joined by Adreanna, Daryel and Saied. It makes a pass at them from overhead, breathing fire down on the lot. Thankfully the Xitians in the group were able to divert the flames. The dragon finally comes in and makes a sloppy landing in the narrow streets of Nightveil. Unbeknownst to the dragon it’s prey wasn’t going to be as easily slaughtered as the sheep and cows.

The dragon snapped it’s maw at the group just to have Zarkaylia ram a sword up it’s nose. This was painful but seemed to only make the dragon angry. Daryel learned his attempts to set the beast on fire had no effect other than drawing its attention to him. But he was wise enough to keep far enough back that the dragon couldn’t immediately eat him. The dragons attempts to do just that got it cut across the face by the guard. While the dragon was still reeling from the blow Adreanna launched a lance of ice that buried itself under the dragon's wing.

Unprepared for such ferocity, the dragon fell into retreat, scrambling up a house to get out of the narrow street to spread it’s wings. While it did collapse the roof of the house, the dragon managed to get airborne once more, and return from whence he came.

As an additional note, a new lore-site containing the dragon's roost has been added to the map.

In the aftermath of the dragon's attack, a lot of townsfolk currently hold up in a shelter in the tunnels. This due to it being definitely safe from more dragon attacks, in case the dragon returns again after its first attack.
