Alright, hearing about her guys succeeding there doesn't bode well for my mental health.

At all.

I want to burn too many things at once, and as we've been catching up around Essos and Westeros due to being efficient, they surely achieved just as much there through sheer determination and having but few goals.

Fuckityfuckfuck-
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

(Mind you, I'm not deluding myself of our capability to have stopped her till now. It still doesn't feel good)

Relax, this is more sacrifices, more XP, and more loot. :D

More time spent on things that get our other enemies to attack us in one way or another.

More time spent not attacking other enemies, who are more imminent that GC.

*time-management crisis intensifies*
 
The good news is we have realized that it is impractical to make moves on Westeros before we have resolved some impending threats that will surely take advantage of the lapse of attention if we do so before dealing with them. And that does not just include the Deep Ones, Tiamat is just as surely to realize she will be next on the chopping block if she doesn't strike at the best opportunity, and that will be the best she'll get.

So she will be dealt with soon.

I am rather excited for all the corpses.

Anyway, @DragonParadox, so the Yi Tish are willing to swear fealty?
 
The dragon orb will be a damm good friend to us I say. As for the other dragon types... find the orbs I guess
Don't preach on deaf ears.

I surely didn't achieve anything with this line of thinking back when we learned of it :(

Everyone seems to consider other dragons' opinion of us more important than a prime weapon against most of Tiamat's fragons :///

Edit: wait, what am I saying? Preach it all the way, maybe we'll get somewhere together.

I'm going to assume the worst, especially since our challenging encounters are now CR 20 and above. This has been the goal the Golden Company has been hyperfocused on for months. Get the relics, sacrifice them in a grand ritual, and then grow the Champion of Tiamat until it can stand against us and cast us down.
Fortunatly Aunty Syrax has some idea what to do with someone like that...
Mythic rank for Dany please.
 
Well. Yi-Ti is FUBAR. How totally unexpected.

Seems we just have to cast down an Empire and the assembled might of Grandmas bad mood.

@Goldfish, you take Tiamat down, I topple the Empire?
 
Alright. I'd be willing to bring them back if they swear themselves to us. Bringing them back in any way, shape, or form after 900 years of being dead warrants this price.

Their terminology is cultural. Offering to act as interpreters and guides is very close, though, and probably as close as we'll get until they're able to see the world around them. Which is quite fair, in my opinion.
 
Of course you are getting the corpses. Does that really need spelling out at this point?
I like having it in writing whenever possible. :V

More seriously, I'm thinking when we get around to it we enchant hundreds, possibly thousands, of Dragonbane Arrows. We help our Erinyes go dragon hunting, and when we have the skies we turn our ire on the mages.

We also have the Dragonbane Cold Iron Shortspear from Mammon that could be put to use.
 
When we do find the ritually-empowered Tiamat Champion, I desperately want to throw Malarys at it. His class feature to force Wyrms into human form has fascinated me for ages.

The Moonchaser. Or better yet, it's larger, uglier, better armed brother.

If we are going against hordes of draconids, I want the heavy artillery in the field.
The expedition should be fine to depart on schedule, though, right?
I see literally no reason against it. Given what we just learned, I want Inquisition outposts popping up like mushrooms in Yi-Ti.
