Nodding to the guards and the kobolds, Ancalagon stays out of the kobold's way, and moves to his throne. Sitting and relaxing for a moment, he watches the kobolds for a moment, and then reaches over and playfully pulls on Shyrath's tail to get her attention, not that he needed to, and then strokes her eye ridges for a few minutes, and tells her of what happened on his trip. He suggests that the kobolds trap the front door with the loud alarms, knowing that they would have already thought of it, but wanting to make sure they understood that he did not need the alarms where he slept, he could magically do that, if he needed to.<br/><br/>He turns his attention back to his mate, and continues to stroke her, enjoying being close to her, and eventually says, in elven, "I would like for you and Raura to go with me, to a few of the nearby towns, that I did not get to a few days ago, and see if I can convince them to come under our protection. It will get us out of the way, so the kobolds can work in peace. And what languages are they using? I can follow a few words, and know what they are generally talking about, but the details escape me."
