*Terragon hurries in, on familiar ground now, while Ashnel puts his footpaw in the door to prevent in closing on any unfortune riddler.* We're looking for a dragon... or hammer 'nd bellows! *Terragon calls back.*
OOC: Wow... I use "..." way to much.

*Geordie follows after Terragon, glancing about and trying to appear helpful at least.* Aye, Ah'd say that'd be tha best place te foind it lass. Dou' anybeast would hae hidden a piece o' parchmen' in tha foire, even if'n tha riddle does mention drag'n's breath...

*Regen follows Geordie into the forge, mumbling something about the heat. He glances at the coals in the forge with a shudder, then goes to stand by a rack of unfinished weaponry.* This oughta be fun...

Mabe it's by the fire?**Ammy starts running her paws along the walls.A small peice comes of under her paws.She looks into the hole it made and pulls out a large piece of parchment.She reads it silently to herself before she reads it to everyone else.**
Heed the warnings made by all To those who try to tame The wonderous power that might make them fall If they say that it's just a game That power can kills us, It's powerfull and so you must Quench it before it reaches down To melt the hearts of some who live To shine in the light of day Third in otter Second in bread Third and fourth are the same as the last in me It will guide you down to the treasure As long as you can dread Into the sun it seems when light Plays upon it's surface Then it shines so bright That you'll never want to let go Of that wounderous, shining glow
It sounds strange.**Ammy shivers.**

*Ashnel glances over Ammy's shoulder at the parchment and mouths the words silently.* As far as I can see, *He tells the other without looking up.* The only lines which are relevant - at the moment - *The squirrel adds as Terragon opens her mouth to object.* Are lines nine, ten 'n' 'leven.

**Ammy seems flustered.**I think so.but it doesn't seem to make any sense.It's like it's telling us something but in a round-a-bout way.Like these lines for example. The wonderous power that might make them fall if they say it's just a game.they don't sound anything like these lines.Into the sun it seems when light Plays upon it's surface Then it shines so bright That you'll never want to let go Of that wounderous, shining glow

Like water on the lake. *Terragon suggests.* Or a fire, or something bright.. maybe here in the forge too. *It's clear she doesn't want to leave.* But we know we're looking for trees. *Ashnel mutters, indicating the lines he'd pointed out before.* And how hard can that be in Mossflower Woods? *Terragon asks increduously, appealing to the others for suggestions.*

It must be about a lake because it says something about otters.They could have used a different word that made more sense but they didn't.It says something about reaching down so it must be a big tree with big roots by a big amount of water.How about an oak?

There's oaks on some of the little island, *Ashnel tell Ammy.* But, call me stupid, that sounds t'me more like a willow tree. *Terragon shruggs, frowning.* Maybe... but it says something about power - and in terms of trees - powerful suggests oak. Or ash, *The other replies, defending his namesake proudly.* Hazel's good for bow wood... strong and flexible... but beech sends mild poison into the ground and kills off things around it. *Terragon glances sidelong at Ashnel, unaware that he posessed any knowledge of gardening.* I used that as an insult, one time, *He explains.* D'you remember Beecheye? A poisonous character.

*Regen reads the words again.* *...the wonderous power that might make them fall/If they say that it's just a game...... *He frowns.* *Fire, maybe? Y' aren't s'pposed t' play with fire....

OOC: I know I'm not supposed to join quests after the first page is passed, but y'all are in the Forge, correct? BIC: *Stoakly walks silently out of the back room, shocked to see many beasts in his forge.* Guys, I can only fix a few blades at a time... *The ferret's eyes rest upon Ammy, an awkward glance settling upon his tan face. He shrugs and returns to the anvil, grabbing the large hammer resting upon it.* Watch ou' fer sparks. *Stoakly comments as he brings the hammer down on the stiletto he is fixing.* Why are you beasts here anyway?

*Regen gestures toward the paper in Ammy's paw. *Some sort o' riddle. I don't get it. *The squirrel glances at the page again, then shakes his head.* *Suspect I'm on th' wrong track anyhow.

*Terragon smirks at Regen suggestion.* Tell that to Ashnel and Jupiter. Set the flag ship of the Salamandastron fleet on fire. By mistake, *Ashnel adds darkly, before turning to Stoakly.* Another riddle quest, though we're stuck on the fourth clue. *He nods at the parchment in Ammy's paw.*

OOC: No problem Stoakly; after all, the forge is your domain, which at least makes it a logical point to enter the quest at.
