Live Bait

Suddenly Urgash's voice disappears and you hear another mighty voice. It seems to come out of everywhere and it makes the land tremble:

Mortal! I am Soliskar the Wise, the Great Dragon. Once we met before, in the place which you, mortals, call the Dragon Ring. I believed in you back then. You... You are different from other mortals. You have something which distinguishes you among others. The errand I have for you I cannot entrust to anyone else.

You will get a vial with drops of my blood. After what happened to you on Kirah you know its priceless. Don't waste it!

I am asking you to open the vial with my blood in three locations on the southern coast in a place which you, mortals, call the Twilight Isle. Demons smell dragon's blood thousands wingbeats away. Hundreds of them will follow the smell. You won't defeat them alone. Give me a signal. Fire a red rocket and I will send my sons to help you. Their breath will turn astral beasts into ashes!

I hope you will succeed. Go now! We don't have much time. Follow my instructions! My blood is too precious to be wasted.

I see my blood was not wasted. Dozens of demons were killed with fangs and claws of my children! They are enraged! That was our goal.

You see, all these errands: assassination of their leaders, explosion of portals and total extermination of the demonic scum lured by the smell of my blood had only one goal - to lure out of the depth of Astral the one called Ar'Kanim, the leader of octulhus and one of the strongest beasts of Sarn. Today I will put the end to his useless life myself!
