The assault on Salty Pier

[Anastasia]

It would not be.

[Nephrite]

Moore taps his fingers on the book.

Well, if it's that particular subject, there's one individual that would know without so much as a second thought.

He looks up at the other two. "Who's up for a trip to meet the Dragon of Dragons?"

[Anastasia]

"Hm?" Jetina looks up, "Bahamut?"

Xandra is already closing her book as you speak, "I believe that is the path forward."

[Nephrite]

"It's no fun if you hear the conversations too, Xandra." Moore says, grinning as he puts the book back on the shelf.

He turns to glance back at the light outside in the water for a moment. The power of that voice can be read as well as heard, now... how interesting.

Moore will give Jetina a chance to put her own book away before he gestures back the way they came -- confident that a path to Bahamut's Palace will likely be waiting for them around a corner if he chooses to look for it and pay attention.

[Anastasia]

So off to visit Bahamut then, eh?

[Nephrite]

Ironically, not on either of the actual dragonborn characters! On the plus side, Moore doesn't have a big FUCK DRAGONS tattoo stamped on his forehead!

[Anastasia]

Erad is giving you the look right now.

The only downside is that by the time you're back above water, no path to Bahamut's Palace has magically presented itself. Looks like you'll need to get there the hard way.

[Nephrite]

Or the easy way!

Since Moore can traverse the different layers now, would he have any sense of whether Greater Plane Shift would work to take him there?

[Anastasia]

It should.

[Nephrite]

Let's give it a shot! Worst case scenario, they get some exercise. Greater Plane Shift, intent is to go to Bahamut's Palace.

[Anastasia]

Woosh.

It's chilly, as it tends to be.

Atop a great cliff sits a palace, a palace of gleaming blue and steel, of gold and silver. A palace seemingly huger than you can grasp, rising broad and tall. In the air are metallic dragons of all kind, along with celestials, dragonborn and other dragon-kin.

[Nephrite]

"Hopefully Gold put in a good word or two for me in passing..." Moore says as he starts up and towards the palace itself!

"Is it weird that Bahamut's Palace is both a place as well as a thing?" Moore asks as he flies along. "I probably shouldn't ask him about that."

[Anastasia]

"It loses something in translation," Xandra mentions, "Name and place is more majestic and meaningful in Draconic, as dragons place a great deal of value on the individual dragon."

"Really?" Jetina asks, "I thought dragons were all...ah..."

[Nephrite]

"Greedy?" Moore asks as he goes along. "You're not wrong from a very 'at a glance' perspective, but it's a lot deeper than that."

[Anastasia]

"I was going to say like Baleruk," Jetina coughs, looking aside.
