Oh... well, that would change things a bit, Lisra figured.  She'd move away, never to return to her tree... a sapling to start, but possible to grow into something far more grand elsewhere.  Dryads had interesting lives... and while the ranger held and was held by the same woman, she listened to her concerns... and knew the answer.<br/><br/>"I am not sure, but perhaps the kobolds have been corrupted by the church of Zon-Kuthan..." she whispered to her, holding her tight as she settled in to explain everything.<br/><br/>Knowing the local kobolds, she relayed the information garnered through her trip to the Shelynite temple, then her trip to the bastard wizard's tower that led to her and Tock's visit to the Summer Queen, and everything that was in order... that the forces of Zon-Kuthan seemed to be working with Groetus' forces to free him, and possibly end the world... at least, that was her theory so far.  Explained the kobolds, seeking to destroy such a powerful Dryad (the Summer Fae feared the blessed flower after all... and the Summer Queen was<em>powerful</em>...) and a thing of utter beauty, and deface the Shelyn temple,<em>and</em>explained those eggs she'd found... and she still had less than a month to get that artifact back!<br/><br/>"That is all I know..." she finished, still holding the woman in her arms "I don't know the fine details, but that's what I've surmised... will you be okay here, or elsewhere for that matter?  If I could stay and protect you I would, but I do have a job to do and must leave soon, as you know.  That is soon though, so I have some time still, if you would ask things of me, or let me of you..."
