Welcome back to another installment of my short story Under. There are only a few pages left in the tale so let’s get into it. The deep gnome and Vaelindra’s crew got the drop on the shadow dragon Malythrak at first, until he dropped a mean shadow breath weapon on the lair. A dragon is typically at its strongest in his lair, a shadow dragon even more so because in this cloud of clinging darkness he can hide stealthily and take enemies by surprise with little effort (even pesky dwarves and elves). The svirfneblin however, has a trinket that’s a callback to near the beginning of the tale. Let’s see how this plays out. Enjoy!
