A group approched the rented manor of Edger Drakken. A small young notail stands at the gate with a wide stance as she points at them with accusation. "Bleh! Bleh! Who are you people and why do you approach the manor of (the rented) castle Drakken?"
"Especially gross furry dogs like you tailed!"
The smaller tailed of the group stiffens mildly. "Who are you? I didn't hear about the Drakkens employing children now."
"Hmmmp! Obviously a stupid tailed like you doesn't know that the Drakkens have been employing children for generations! Who else has a frame small enough to fit down chimneys?"
"Plus, I'm not just a child. I'm the reincarnation of a great Drakken witch. See I even got wings." The child raises her arms to show that she has hastily stitched fabric attached from her sleeves to her shirt to form wings.
"And if you're not careful, gross furry one, I'll inflict the feys upon you!"
"Uh..... huh," Little Fangs mumbles, unimpressed.
"...I'm lookin' for a dragon. Y'see any of those around here? I was on my way to see the Drakken who's lookin' for it."

Notails. Horrid little things, Flower Trove thinks, and this one certainly isn't doing much to dispel that impression. But he ignores her little jabs. "Peace, notail. We have nae quarrel with ye. Mayn ye help us with our goal?"
"I AM NOT A NOTAIL! I AM A VAMPWELF!" The child shouts, flapping her wings in anger.

"And not just ANY vampwelf. I am of high Drakken nobility! Don't you dare stoop me to the levels of mangy rats like you guys!"
"Guys, she's obviously a vampwelf. Have some respect."
Ignoring the notail, Little Fangs begins to approach the gate, looking for a way around it. "If you're not gonna help, scram."

Flower Trove is reminded of young kits he knew who claimed to be demigods as they first learned to speak. Unfortunately, the usual solution to such troublesome behaviour isn't really an option here. With the utmost patience, he speaks. "........As ye say, vampwelf."
"Scram? Scram!?! I am the one who summoned dragons many centuries ago! Very recently, I even summoned another dragon, adding to the power of the greatest house in the universe, House Drakken!" The child pushes Little Fang away from the gate the best she could. "Stand back, mutt, or else I will sic my family's beast upon you!"
"Don't touch me."
"Plus, if there's anyone who knows how to summon a dragon, it is me!" The child proudly crosses her arms. "But Castellan Edger and his mad knight have been horrible at catching dragons. I'm the real intelligent one here."
"ALSO IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE TOUCHED STOP TRYING TO GET INTO THE HOUSEHOLD OF THE GREAT DRAKKENS WITHOUT MY PERMISSION, LOSER!"
Flower Trove speaks in Little Fangs' ear. "Please, have peace. Dinnae let her words harm ye, arrogant as they arn."
She huffs. "...I am seeking the dragon, nothing else. I am highly doubting you can summon a godly beast, so let me talk to the Drakken."
"No. And that is firm! Why would Castellen Edger ever want to talk to you? Why do you want to meet a dragon?"
"Is he not the one hunting the dragon? Or have I been wasting my time."
"Everyone is hunting the dragon. Castellen Edger has two dragons due to the help of me! If you can tell me information worth bringing to Castellen Edger, I'll open the gates."
"But if you don't, the only way I'm opening these gates is if you show truth, kindness, weakness, and devotion to House Drakken. Which one will it be?"
"Don't believe that I will trust your word without proof as well. Tell me, do you even have evidence of these two animals?"
".......I'm the one with the closed gate. You don't get to be the one to make the demands."
"And you are a child. What is your point? I don't need to listen to the likes of you."
"Unless, hey, find the dragon with us. And maybe I'll believe you then. If you're a so called expert, then it should be no big deal, right? I'll grovel at the feet of the Drakkens if you prove successful."
"But I truly doubt it'll come to that."
"I'm only a child because I reincarnated, stupid!" The child jeers at Little Fangs. "You're going to look like an idiot in a moment, you know that?"
Flower Trove does wish to know how far the other 'dragon hunters' have progressed. He's not inclined to tell them anything he himself knows, though. "Hmm. What acts do ye wish fromm me? I will do it, if it may allow our group through."
The child jumps towards Flower Trove. "Ah yes, a reasonable person. I will allow you in as long as you say "I shall commit no evil to the Drakkens, for my loyalty is with them." Then you hand me your creatures, that way you don't try to get around it by making your creatures attack."
"Also, you have to eat one of the crackers as you entered the house, because "God shall strike down any guest who dines on the food of their host, and then has ill-will towards them."
"I am not giving up my companion. He stays with me, kid." She says, bringing the roximur closer to themselves.
"I'll eat the blasted cracker if it means you'll get on with it."
"Sorry, but no. You have to do ALL of the things. You'll get your creature once you leave the building and no sooner."
"If you won't do it, then goodbye!!!!!"
"He is my friend. He is allowed to walk free."

The child looks towards the other visitors. "Hey, if this guy isn't going to listen, either convince him, or get out of here. Animals are not allowed in the house."
"Just give up the damn creature, you're making this so much harder on yourself and us, dumbass."
"Anything that breathes should not be imprisoned for their existence."
"...Mayn it be possible, ta leave the animal outside the gate, but not in yenn vampwelf's hands?"
"You're making this out to be like the Drakken already has this dragon. I had thought you said you'd hunt it, no?"
The notail had mentioned already that Edger has two dragons. Maybe Little Fang didn't hear?
"He is not just a creature. He is my companion, not a pest."
"Uh, no. I'm not imprisoning them anyway. I'm just locking them up for a SHORT moment. You people never had to wait in a waiting room before? That's not imprisonment, that's called waiting!!! I will not let you trough unless you do as I say, so leave! Gosh! What are you, nine?"
"..."
"...He will wait outside. I do not trust anyone with him."
"Can we go now?"
"I told you multiple times, we are going by MY RULES! As a Drakken, you have shown me disrespect over and over! I told you I have to hold the creatures and you keep trying to get around this. As High Witch of House Drakken, you shall not pass!" Larp holds her arms out to refuse them entry.
The Knight of House Drakken exits, gazing at the commotion. "High Witch, what is the problem? Your screams are annoying the beasts."
"THESE PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE I'M A HIGH WITCH OF DRAKKEN REINCARNATED!!!!!"
"Well, it is rather unbelievable, but it is true. She is a reincarnated witch."
"..."
This is not how one treats children with delusions of grandeur.
"I do not care if she is a witch or a Drakken! I care if she knows where the dragon is!"

"Considering she summoned a dragon herself, it would not be outside of her powers to know."
"I bet you're feeling reeeeeeeally stupid for thinking I was lying now!"
"You cannot be seriously playing along with this, are you?"

This guy really is losing a battle with a 5 year old.
"Do I look like a man who jokes, tailed?"
"Apparently I'm in for a lot of surprises today, so I wouldn't know."
"Understand, that I too had a hard time accepting this truth, but she knows things that only witches could know."

"Why she reincarnated in this form is beyond me though..."
"A witch never tells her secrets."
"Unfortunate."
Flower Trove's fingers twitch on his cane. He really wants to smack some sense into this child. But he would not do that without permission from her kin.
"These guys want to talk to castellan Edger but one of them-" She points to Little Fang. "-refuses to follow house traditions!"
"If you refuse to engage in eating the customary cracker that signs a contact with god over your trustworthiness, I cannot allow you inside."
"I said I'd eat the bloody cracker!!"

"No, the other one."
"Well clearly they cannot come in if they do not pledge love for House Drakken."
"No no, the other tradition."
"No dirty paws inside?"
"Yeah! Force them to hand over their creatures before they come inside!"
"Can't the creatures just wait outside, tied up as normal?"
"...That mayn be preferred."

"You do not need to give your creatures to the witch, but you are required to have your beasts tied so they do not cause chaos in the garden." The knight takes out a rope. "Allow me to tie your beasts up while you enter if there's no objections."
"I wouldn't recommend it. If he gets uncomfortable he is prone to his flare ups."
"He may wait outside of the gate."

Long Fur takes out his animal.

...It's also a rope, if a leafy, colourful one. It doesn't move as he drops it on the ground.
Rat has no problem handing over her eyegret
"He possesses the talent of summoning flames. I assume you do not want a stressed creature to immediately break free and burn your property."
"Though, If I tie it loose he should not have a problem. He'll just be really mad at me for a really long time, yknow."
"I see. Well apologizes in that case. Please head home and leave your creatures there. We cannot assist you if you cannot follow our rules."
"HAHA! TOLD YOU DUMMY! YOU'RE SOOOOO RUDE-" The Knight scruffs the notail and opens the gate, entering and closing it behind himself.
("Who would have known the witch would be such a loud one....")
"I do not have a home."
"Outside is the closest thing. We are both nomadic in nature, sir."
"Your poverty is none of my concern." The knight states with a shrug as he leaves, dragging the witch along.
Flower Trove shakes his head. A familiar sight, this. Those of the Neo are ever stifled by the rules of society, unable to pass through its gate.
"Fine! Fine! Leash him then." Throwing her hands up in the air, she loses her temper again. "Just don't come cryin' to me if he causes trouble, y'hear?"
Crouching down near her companion, she begins to whisper. "I am truly sorry. I hate this as much as you do."
"Why society is entitled to controlling us is beyond me, just trust me on this."

"Drama queen."



After a moment she gets up, turning to the group. "I'm just fucking with you. I'm going in."
She points to the gate to her companion. "Break that."
Little Fangs rolls a 20 sided die. A 2 is rolled.

The roximur, frustrated by all the arguments, jumps on the gate, screaming and shaking the bars. The sturdy bars hold strong, even as it use [flamecaller] and sets its owners tail on fire by mistake.

"Oh for the love of-" Screeching, she swats at her tail, annoyed and panicked.

Alerted by the sounds, Bloodfang flies over the fences and lands in front of the gate, throwing the roximur back.

Flower Trove acts quickly, looking for something wet to put the fire out, though dirt will do if nothing else is available. To lose your tail from such an event would disgrace Little Fangs in the eyes of her god, and he will prevent that if he can.
Flower Trove rolls a 20 sided die. A 5 is rolled.
Little Fangs rolls a 20 sided die. A 13 is rolled.

With effort and assistance, Little Fangs is able to snuff out the flames before it could spread and do more damage. Sure the fur was burnt, but clipping and time will heal the damaged fur like new.

Bloodfang snarls at the group, wondering why they are causing such a commotion outside.
Edger Drakken opens the window on the second floor, shouting down. "What are you idiots doing? It's midday! Some of us are sleeping!"
Flower Trove looks closely at the beast. So this is the dragon the Drakkens claim to possess. Curious.
"Sorry! Her dog got uh- loose!" She shouts back, hoping that was enough to not rouse too much suspicion.
"Is that a dragon?" She gasps, ignoring the rest of their group at the spectacle before them.
"Well, color me surprised! That kid wasn't lying about them!"

"Don't tell me she was telling the truth..." groaning, remembering her 'promise' to the notail.
"Oh, trust me, the fact that our witch reincarnated as...that.....thing is embarrassing, but everyone knows that witches are....queer things."
"How can someone so puny even summon something with such great power?? It's outrageous..."
"To be fair, from what I understand, she did it via the power of her familiar....who is also her father. Yet again, witches are very very strange."
"Sometimes I think there's a reason they went extinct until now!"
"That little shit has a father? Thought those things got abandoned, or something."

"But then, aliens are so diff'rent from us tailed. If ye say she is yenn witch, then so be it."
"Or maybe that was just my parents?"
"Look, I didn't believe it either, but she knew things of Drakken past, and also brought forth the dragon you see before you now. If she is not a witch she is some thing of power and I would be an idiot to not hold on to that, you see."
"Also my wife thinks she's cute. Like a baby duckling."
"So I guess we must keep the witch! For power and for my wife's happiness."
"Very strange to call such a pest 'cute', though I suppose I should not judge."
"Talking to you all from this window is awkward, why do you not come in?" At that moment, the knight enters Edger's room.
"They refused to follow our orders."
"They won't eat the customary cracker?"

"No, not that, they will not allow us to tie their beasts."
"Then tell them to leave them at home."
"They live in poverty."
Edger leans over the window. "You can't ALL be homeless! Whichever one of you has a home can store the beasts there, can you not? If you're ALL homeless you can't enter this building anyway, as if too many of the Poors walk into a building it causes bad luck to build up!"
"...I did not consider that option."
"..."
"DO ANY OF YOU NOT LIVE IN POVERTY??"

"I am not hunting with the poor. I doubt you even have a steed. Knight, hand the poor people the pity fund."
"Understood, Edger." The mad knight leaves to grab some sort of creature. He opens the gate and leaves it in front of the group, backing away as if they were contagious monsters.

The pity fund wiggles slightly.

She hates not being taken seriously. It's patronizing.
"BUY YOURSELF A SUIT, A TIE, AND GET A JOB, POOR PEOPLE!" Edger shouts from the second floor before slamming the window.
"Little Fangs, I fear these people will not hunt with you."
"Loserrr."

"Load of royal pricks, those Drakkens." She mutters, swiping the money up regardless.
"Do not disrespect me, ungodly kit! I am doing this for my god!"
"What are you even fighting for? To scrape by like vermin?"
"Well said." Flower Trove respects the Neo tailed's spirit, even if she failed.
"You don't understand. So I don't need you." She starts to walk away from the group, grumbling at her failure.
"...I'll just bribe someone with this for information."
...Flower Trove wonders if, maybe, he should have told her what he knew of the island's dragon. But silence is more valuable than honesty, at times.
Edger Drakken gazes out of the window as the group of poverty stricken mutts disbands. He places a talon against the glass as he speaks to his knight. "The poor will never escape their poverty due to infighting. It is why we must stay away from them, to reject their poor poverty inflicted attitudes."
"..................................."
"If you say so, Castellan Edger."
