Draiss compares what he knows of the party and comes up with a nasty fight, even with the dragon and goblin gone. He wanted to avoid the lizardfolk, he figured they mostly just wanted to be left alone. He considers the problem, and then tells the party what his eyes reported. "At least fourty lizardfolk, four ogres and the dragon just left. The lake is too big to cross without the guards, if they have any, noticing us. Even with my and Maura's shapeshifting abilities, I am not sure we are tough enough to deal with this without butchering the lizardfolk. And if that dragon comes back, we would be in serious trouble, swamps like this are its natural home."
