Neela - You watch as Valarken stops in mid-air, turning side to side as he shouts, "What? Who said that!? No! NO!" Valarken's form stretches and thins, then collapses in on itself. The ex-grand duke of Baldur's Gate fades into nothingness and is gone on the wind.
Valarken is DEAD.
Krugh - Your greataxe deals heavy blows to Duskbringer and her black blood spatters the tiled floor as her roars shake the walls.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Sinak moves south 30 feet, planning to take cover behind the corner of the room to the southwest. As he moves he says “Pour it on, attack with all you’ve got!”
Action : Guiding bolt to light up the dragon again, 2nd level.

Thelan looks on in awe as the door crashes down and Duskbringer’s massive bulk fills the entranceway. Glancing down at his almost empty quiver, Thelan drops his bow and draws Moonpetal. He Fey Steps out of the barracks, appearing next to the dragon in a blaze of flame and fire. Raising Moonpetal high, he urges the remaining elves into the battle “For Ravenglade!”and strikes at Duskbringer twice.
Attack: 17 Damage: 9.
Attack: 18 Damage: 8.
first hit also deals 3 psychic damage from dreadful strike. Duskbringer also takes 3 fire damage from Fey Step (summer).
Sinak - The guiding bolt slams into Duskbringer's face, knocking her head back as the ethereal spear pierces her chest. She roars weakly with sluggish movements.
Thelan - Moonpetal carves through Duskbringer's scaled hide, spilling her black blood across the floor. The large dragon roars in agony. You feel Moonpetal jerk forward in your hand, driving itself deep into the wound and piercing Duskbringer's heart. Her roar turns to a gasp of pain and suprise before she falls over, dead.
Duskbringer is DEAD. Combat has ended.
All - The chamber falls quiet, but for the whimpers and gasps of the wounded elves scattered about. Lia walks over to the dragon's corpse and looks upon it quietly. The elves begin tending to their wounded and forming search parties to clear out the remaining kobolds holed up throughout the keep. What would you like to do?

Neela pokes her head out from the room she has been taking cover in. Seeing both Duskbringer dead and Valarken gone, she lets out a whoop of joy.
"YES! You guys did it again! The great and mighty warriors of Ravenglade Keep!" Tapping her hand drum with a lively beat and dancing a little jig around the body of the dragon, she launches into song. "Oh hear ye the tale of those who slew a wicked black dragon and Valarken too..."
Thelan looks at the dead dragon, then moves to find Lia “Lia, is Aelar here with you? The children are safe and the keep is restored” He looks over at Fivin’s body “But why would Fivin betray you?”
Sinak walks over and put his foot on Duskbringer, like a big game trophy hunter. A smile crosses his face and he says “I can’t believe we did it. Wow.” He looks down at the beast and his eyes record all of the information, size, fangs, claws, attacks he observed, all of it. It will make for an interesting report indeed. He walks over to Lia, saying “I’m sorry about Lucan. Your children, are they safe?” He reaches into his pack, pulls out the journal found in the room where Lucan was being caged, starts to read through it again, and shows it to Lia. “I wonder whatFivin was trying to do, what sort of horrible bargain he made….” He sits down on the floor, exhausted, and looks around.

A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
All - Lia says, "The children are safe, thank the Goddess of Moonlight. And thank you, all of you." She looks to each of you, then looks at Fivin's corpse, "I... I do not know what would have driven Feather to commit such atrocities. Our kind hold life as sacred and view necromancy as a terrible crime against nature." She notices your puzzled expressions and adds, "We called Fivin 'Feather' for his fondness of collecting and cataloging the plumage of rare birds." Lia turns to Thelan and says, "Aelar is leading the search parties to clear the kobolds from the keep." A relatively unharmed elf approaches and says, "The wounded have been moved to the barracks." They look down before adding, "Lucan's body has been set aside for proper interment." The elf glances over at Fivin's corpse with a look of disgust, "What would you have us do with... that?" Lia sighs and says, "Burn it. Scatter the ashes far from Ravenglade." Lia faces you all and says, "You are all welcome to stay and rest as long as you need. The Warriors of Sehanine are your allies and I am personally indebted to each of you." More elves approach Lia for guidance and you're left by yourselves. The children are saved. Ravenglade Keep has been retaken. The Warriors of Sehanine are bettered, but not broken. Thanks to you, they will rebuild and heal. You all began this quest as strangers but have ended it as companions and heroes. Now, as the sun rises, illuminating the foyer through the open doorway, you wonder, what adventures lie ahead?
The End.

Sinak - This dragon, though large, doesn't appear to be fully grown yet. It appears pretty badly injured at this point.

Action : Guiding bolt to light up the dragon again, 2nd level.
Guiding Bolt : Attack: 8 Damage: 13
Bonus action : He casts spiritual weapon at second level to appear right beside the dragon, an ethereal spear that stabs him.
Spiritual spear : Attack: 11 Damage: 11

Krugh completes the move by teleporting to the floor and walking slowly to retrieve his handaxes and strap his weaponry back on.
That... Could have gone a lot worse. Good work and the element of a surprise was with us.
Krugh looks around, wondering what happens next.

As it turns out, Neela is better at telling tales, than singing them.
Thelan looks at the dead dragon, then moves to find Lia “Lia, is Aelar here with you? The children are safe and the keep is restored” He looks over at Fivin’s body “But why would Fivin betray you?”
