Eos decides to take care of the matter of the dragon turtle. It is after all an intelligent creature, and all intelligent creatures want something ... which they can get in exchange of something else. Perhaps the dragon could be persuaded into becoming an asset.

Thus, the High Elector takes to a boat with the House of Chora's guards and his consort. Before he has prepared well, studying some spells that he hopes will be useful and getting a plan together. He brings with them a dozen pieces of fattened cattle, bought for the occasion. Once they are edging the territory of the dragon, they will begin dropping one piece every hour, letting the current carry them into the dragon's territory so that they can incite the dragon into talking to them.

Once the creature emerges, most of the troops stay by the shore along with Ismael. Eos himself remains hidden, but summons the power of Waukeen to create an image through which he will talk. After all, if the dragon is aggressive he'd rather not be right in front of its arms.

Hopefully, all will be well.

I memorize a few better spells for the occasion (Protection from energy and Gaseous form seem more effective than knock!) and... let's try and find that turtle!
