@rowyn
Backstory!
That certainly explains the all-present light in Peia's prison.
@kelkyag Cassie: "It certainly does."
Cassie: "Might explain why I've had such a hard time taking my own advice and avoiding the creature, too."
@rowyn @kelkyag It's probably safe enough... Probably. ^.^;;
@Tuftears @kelkyag Cassie: "Optimist." 😑
@rowyn @kelkyag Look at it this way, you're not a king or royal messenger, so there probably isn't a lot of point influencing you, and if she were to do something untoward, she might lose the only person who's willing to *read* to her!
@rowyn Casie, making a good impression on everyone except, maybe, the Baron. ^.^
@Tuftears Cassie: "The Baron made a very bad impression on me, so the feeling's mutual there."
@rowyn Well, can't win them all. ^.^
@rowyn oh. Yes, that may have really annoyed him.
@Anke Cassie: "...yes."
Cassie: "Giving him back his sword after he ran at me with it unprovoked just didn't sit right, you know?"
@rowyn Yeah... maybe negotiating him down to not attacking YOU and then giving im back would have worked, but then maybe it wouldn't.
Good luck, anyway.
@Anke Cassie: "At least he'll have to wait until he finds another sword before he can do it again."
@rowyn @Anke Swords are passe! Axes are the new hotness, because now he has an axe to grind with Cassie. ^.^;;
@rowyn kind of wondering if he was so worried about the sword breaking bc he’s tied to it somehow, in a way thats more important than just haunting the armor is
@Satsuma Cassie: "Hmm. Perhaps? He was sentimental about it, at a minimum."
@rowyn Great idea!
@Anke Cassie: "Oh, thank you! I've no idea what I'll do if I run into the Baron again, to be honest."
@rowyn Here's to hoping he'll recognise and not attack you
@Anke Cassie: "...I'm a bit concerned that I have annoyed him more than I intimidated him." 😓
@rowyn Awww Blackpaw, so FIERCE! ^.^
@rowyn Hey, hey, Baron, don't make Umbral remind you about CONSENSUAL ADVENTURING.
@Tuftears Baron: "If someone didn't want ADVENTURE why would they come HERE?"
@rowyn That's gorgeous! And Blackpaw is really good with his paws if he can catch echoes with them. ^.^ 90% magic indeed.

@Tuftears @rowyn
Indeed!
What does one store the echo of a baaaaa in?

Much appreciation to Penny for the tour-with-errands. :)

@kelkyag @Tuftears Cassie: "An echo bottle is best."
@rowyn @kelkyag Not a baa-ttle? ^.^
@Tuftears @kelkyag
Blackpaw: *purrs*
Cassie: *scowls*
@rowyn
Oooh, I had not imagined that liquid flire gave off nearly that much heat. Does it heat up the bottle it's in, if it's stoppered? Does it give off more heat when exposed to air, and does that use it up?
@kelkyag Cassie: "It'll heat the bottle, if you use the wrong kind. It doesn't get used up when exposed to air. It gets used up when you use it."
@rowyn
So once she's collected enough liquid fire, does Penny have an everlasting source of hot air for her balloon, barring spills & such? Or is that "using" it in some mode?
@kelkyag Cassie: "Oh, no, that's definitely using it. She'll need to replenish it periodically."
@rowyn
So how does the liquid fire get "used up" when it's being used to heat air for a balloon? If it's just sitting in its open tank heating the air above it, that doesn't seem more like using it up than having it exposed to air generally. Does Penny have to do more than have it sitting there being warm, and if so, what?
@kelkyag Cassie: "It's magic. It's used up by being used. Used for a purpose by a sentient being is different from existing."

@rowyn
Offering the local witch a retainer so that she can stock up on ingredients needed to treat common mining injuries might be clever. Annoying her by asking her to repeatedly cure avoidable injuries, not so much ...

Cassie starts establishing OSHA-type requirements for repeat customers ...

@kelkyag @rowyn Maybe the witch needs an assistant? Someone who can collect reagents on her behalf?
@Tuftears @kelkyag Cassie: *considers this*
Cassie: "Don't really have the funds for an apprentice and not sure I'm ready for one, to be fair."
@kelkyag Cassie: "I bet I can convince Umbral to set up OSHA inspections...."
@rowyn
The residents would be SO annoyed.
@kelkyag Cassie: "It'd be for their own good."
Cassie: "But yes."

@rowyn
A translator! Very helpful. Is this the kobold tribe that wants to free Peia?

I'd worry about blacklung, but something fungal or magical is just as plausible. Styne's not so well adapted for living underground as his adopted tribe is.

@kelkyag It's pretty much some kind of pulmonary fibrosis, yeah. Fortunately, Cassie has much better treatments for this sort of thing than modern medicine does. 😊
@rowyn I love that you gave the red dragon leopard spots. ^.^
@Tuftears I really enjoyed doing the spots and stripes on the li'l kobolds.  🐆
@rowyn Well, Cassie's getting along surprisingly well with Peia... ... wasn't she the one telling us how terrible demons are?
@Tuftears Cassie: "..."
Cassie: "Yes."
@rowyn Not a kind bone in her body indeed.
