Chapter 2 onward outline

--Include Making of the Dragon Sledge

--Sulaiman goes back to the forge after a nice dinner with family

"Did you hear the news?"

"I haven't gotten the news in years, Mom. What happened?"

"Bahron was recently attacked by a bunch of dragons. A major section of the city was destroyed and they had to call the military in for help. They've never gone that far before."

"Before? Have there been attacks like that before?"

"None that aren't repelled quickly. They can barely scratch the wall and it's mostly wyverns that attack anyway. This is the first time they've come this far into the empire.

"That seems troubling."

*Cut to a week later*

Sulaiman gets a message from his parents: "We're being attacked by wyverns. Get over here and help us"

Invaders are repulsed, one of them hisses something about a war.

"War? We can't have that!"

"What do we do?"

"Well, we should probably investigate Bahron and see what happened."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah! I have Extensive Knowledge of dragons and might be able to figure this out!"


Chapter 3

--Family makes preparations to leave, Sulaiman with his new weapon

--Plan is for Guinevere to scout around the city and ask questions while Sulaiman and Gawain hide outside the city walls and try to gather evidence there.

--Guinevere disguises herself as a member of the Hunters Guild using her old armor and weapons.

--Asks around within the shopping district and areas near the site of the attack. Something about a brief "scratching" on the outside bottom of the wall.

--Sulaiman and Gawain hide within the shifting sands and investigate the outside. Claw marks on both sides of the wall and burns. Smells like chemical fire common between dragons and wyverns, but the walls themselves are nearly twelve feet thick, not including the towers that are almost 18 feet thick.

--Sulaiman runs through wyvern options until Gawain notices that there are service staircases at regular intervals, and the crumbled area is where one such staircase would be. They sneakily grab a sample of the blackened area to study.

--Guinevere finds out that the local stock exchange is closed for the day, with a large hole in the ceiling.

--Using cheeky messaging thing, the boys find that there is a massive hole in the stock exchange and space where there would be something like a vault. True demonstration of the scope of Gawain's powers

--It was a hiest!

Chapter 4

--They need to get out before they can continue investigating, and an old man stops Guinevere

--He recognizes Guinevere when they were in the Hunters Guild together, but he mistakes her for a much younger relative, probably her niece.

--"Yep! Sure am! Let's go with that."

--Cue awkward conversation about "how much the Guild has changed" regarding things like hunting regulations and schooling, along with layout and "is that restaurant still there?"

--New person has taken over the Guild, the nephew of the Emperor. Has loosened hunting regulations immensely in order to bring in more wyvern materials. Can be used for weapons, armor, medicines, clothes, etc.

--Hunting has become a lot harder simply because there aren't many wyverns left, or they've fled to other areas and began wreaking havoc.

--Guinevere realizes that she hasn't checked in on her family even once since she left, is too ashamed to do so.

--Says her goodbyes and reconvenes with Gawain and Sulaiman.
