We started last session in the midst of a nail biting battle with the king of the cloud giant castle. The dragon blood stained rapier stabbed him good, causing him to be disabled by pain and allowing him to be finished off. His angry ghost self went on a tantrum and destroyed the control room, causing the castle to begin crashing.
Our panicked party discussed what to do until finally inspired to ride down on the backs of some wyverns. Paavu, being the heaviest, jumped on a wyvern by himself and made it look easy, giving everyone else confidence to ride. Nuka cast polymorph on Dakota, turning him into a rat and putting him in her pocket as she and Shava jumped on a stubborn wyvern. After failing to take off, eventually Nuka got control and guided that wyvern to the skies. Dara and Gold Brain jumped on the back of the last wyvern. Gold Brain tried to get it to take off to no avail. Dara tried, same results. It eventually took off, and went its own way completely ignoring and unbothered by their attempts to steer with both a gentle touch or an intimidating grip. Finally, the way to a wyvern’s heart is through its stomach, they started throwing food in the direction they wanted to go and the wyvern would sail in that direction to eat it.
From just below the cloud lines, they saw a small village with lights still aglow down below. They glided down to about a half mile out of town, hitched their wyverns and went happily on to town. As they approached, it became clear that the glow was the burning of the village. Tiny elves were running panicked all over while the town’s small homes burned. They stopped and questioned a couple of the elves and found out that Toy Day may be ruined because Frosty Snowbeard has been kidnapped.
