They are treated with resignation, not joy.
That was your first indicator.

Damn, that is one deadly undead.
Anyway, regarding the fey situation, DP spelled it out simply: we have to change the narrative without offending so many of them that they collectively declare war. We will likely off a good amount still.
Shouldn't be terribly hard to not fuck up that bad.

zx, I'm moderately good at having ideas (sometimes), fleshing out isn't my thing. Good for me I'm participating in a thread where there are people around that are
Would it make a good story?
If you can spin a good narrative around that idea (or ideally dozens) you have yourself a winner.
.Oh, and the Seven prepared their champions to combat us specifically, not so much preparation for the WW.

They're subjects that have to be managed and redirected. Entertaining, but troublesome nonetheless. Still useful, though.
By the way, @DragonParadox, can we get our own Wild Hunt fey to go dragon hunting for us? We can challenge them to hunt down the Mind Blanked hatchlings.

That's because they are good at their jobs and ooze style.
Which is also why nobody complains about the Orphene court either.
"Step aside gentlemen."
You don't have any fey in your service aligned with the idea of 'wild hunt' right now.

Can we hire the wild hunt?
A Mind Blanked Red Dragon Wyrmling is a rather interesting challenge for a fey hunter.
Just like the challenge of finding a stag somewhere in Westeros and not using any magic.

Perfect - a new story for them.
You would have to find them IC and ask.

You have this entirely backwards. The thralldom creates the base for the mental break. But the break itself? That's entirely nonmagical. My source for this? Some relevant experience on the psych side and a recent re-read of Proven Guilty, where this is outright stated.
What Molly did to Nelson was magical, yes, but it's just the spark. The fire that results from it? It's just fire. No magic involved. You're also completey misinterpreting what Heart's Ease actually does in this case. Good god, man, what you're implying is that it goes 'everything you did whilst mind controlled was your own actions, not ones forced on you'.
No. Just no. That's the opposite of helping.

I don't suppose a sending would suffice?
Also, can we roll for knowledge on how best to convince them to go on a dragon hunt?

It's the Wild Hunt. Convince them that it's fine prey, worthy of their attention and with the promise of a grand and bloody hunt.

If we're gonna bribe someone to hunt dragons can it be that cleric of Bahamut?
He was cool, and we still have that silver dragon hide.

I'm a tad worried that a misstep might have them deciding that we're even better prey.

And pissing of Tiamat. That should make them pay to do it.
- No, it would take actual persuasion.
- @Snowfire is right, they hunt for glory and for sport. Convince them they will have both and they will do it

... weren't the fey fleeing the red dragons? Which were created by Tiamat? Foiling one of her plots should be enticement enough?

Okay. Do we know where to find them? Would Bla of the Golden Hearth Inn know where to look?
Construct raven should do it.
You could certainly try that tack too.
