conversations.value: Lix Lorn: Several miles from the mountain town of Mondra, the allies find themselves standing in front of a large cave of grey-orange stone, partway up the side of a volcano. The trip wasn’t too difficult, aided with wings and magic, but the mayor’s agitated claims that ‘SOMETHING weird is up with the guys in there’ are neither comforting nor particularly helpful.
  
  The only way forward is inwards, onwards, and upwards.

conversations.value: Morcleon: Dull blue eyes under wavy grey hair, black coat over a blood red shirt, Felix Haladren yawns and looks about the cave entrance, a calm yet cautious expression on his face.  "Hm... this is certainly a nice little vacation spot we've got here." 
  
  He holds out his arm and a small crystalline cicada crawls out, wings slowly twitching.  "Now then... shall we enter?"

conversations.value: Lix Lorn: " Yeah, let's head on in! " says Tia, cheerfully, striding forth into the cave. Three steps in she jumps backwards, hiding around the corner with distinctly excessive fear.
  " Dragonkin! Two of them! " she exclaims, somewhere between fear and excitement.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: supernerd: Norian smirked, "Only a single stride in and we run into something fun. Let's make this quick. Kuuki, Get them." The huge whipping of cold air rushes towards the beasts striking en passant and ending a good twenty feet past them, the breathy human beginning a song of beautious gales and drawing his weapon.

conversations.value: Eldest: Onsi takes wing, flying past them but holding off on attacking the dragonkin until he knew they were hostile. After all, he was a dragon. They weren't all evil.

  Move to someplace past and above them inside the cave ( (1d20+16)[ 32 ]  spot,  (1d20+16)[ 33 ]  listen if it matters) and then a held action to use his breath weapon if they are hostile and the breath weapon wouldn't hit anyone he's friendly with.

conversations.value: Morcleon: Felix glares at the two chromatic dragonkin, and sighs.  "Ah... I'm afraid we can't do that. You see, we need to get in." 
  
  Flashing them a grin, he explodes forward, two bright green sabers extending from his outstretched hands, crashing into the closest enemy in a whirlwind of slashes.

  Felix's ferocious charge strikes the first guard hard, disintegrating him in a flurry of destruction.
  
  Howling with fury, the remaining guard charges the short distance to strike back, and his axe swings for the psion.

conversations.value: supernerd: Norian chuckles,  "Looks like I've chosen my allies wisely, This should be fun."  He raised his bow to the remaining guard and ordered his elemental,  "Kuuki ike!"  and looses two arrows in the dragonkin's direction.
