Zak doesn't seem to care much about the captured Gnome that Spotty let free, and he quickly becomes bored listening to Spotty talk to... well... the other Spotties in a language that he cannot understand, so he takes a few steps over to Meepo's body and moves the body around with his foot, searching it.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
The Kobolds to Spotty: <-- Goblins? More of them? We'll just stay here.. we don't want to get captured again and tortured some more.. -->
Eskie looks at Spotty: They are a bunch of cowards!Then to the Kobolds: <-- Fine, you guys stay here then, make sure you tell the Goblins farewell on my behalf, I'm sure they'll be in a great mood knowing I'm gone.. they will surely reward you for your bravery! -->
The Kobolds now look more hesitant about staying.. they look up to Spotty almost asking for confirmation of something. They look mostly afraid.
Zak: while playing around with Meepo's body, all you find is an old and rough waterskin and a few silver coins fall out of his clothing while you turn him over (6 sp).
Renny: the young dragon looks at you, he smiles.
<— Yes.. human....... mostly. —> (He let's out a small hissing laughter)
<— If you know the way out, I will follow you, mostly-human-girl-with-the-dragon-scales! —>
Renny, Martin, Calcryx, Gwenant, Hef, Spotty, Eskie and the three Kobold prisoners suddenly start hearing the unusual sound of small metal coins hitting rock and falling to the ground. The clings are short but sharp, and echo slightly through the empty hallways of the ruins.
Renny smiles at Calcryx, <- You're a funny one -> she looks over at the sounds and sticks her head out of the door, "What is that.... what happened to Meepo!?"

Spotty shrugs and ignores the other kobolds. He seems more interested in the gnome. "You know Draconic?" he says and leads him back into the other room, where Zak is loudly laughing over Meepo's body. "...Zak, show some respect to the dead, please... ANYWAY, guys, I found this gnome who'd been captured by the goblins... Eskie, would you like to come with us for a while, or would you rather just get out of here?"
Gwenant jerks around on hearing the sharp clinking sound echoing through the halls. She lowers her weapons a moment later when Renny peeks in the room. After looking between the sorcerer, Spotty, and Meepo's corpse, Gwenant says, "The kobolds had a spat over the dragon." With a pointed look at the body at Zak's feet, she adds, "The home team lost." On hearing another clink of silver on stone, Gwenant turns to Zak with a nervous smile and says, "Hey, Zak, big guy, I don't want to be the stick in the mud but I'm pretty sure we aren't the only people who can hear that noise in these tunnels. Here be goblins and all that..."
"Yes... Spotty, sorry about that. My apologies" as Zak then looks at Gwen and returns his Greatsword to his back and stands at attention, really trying hard to hold in his laughter.
Calcryx follows Renny, for now he stays in the room where you found him, and just peeks through the door:
<— ... interesting companions you have there, girl-with-the-golden-scales —>
Through the other door, Eskie walks up to Spotty and gives him a tap on the shoulder:
<— Well yes, my friend, I speak your mother tongue! It’s a long story, but let’s just say I have spent time with your kind before, and that’s how I can speak Draconic! When I was imprisoned here, I though ‘oh just my luck, fellow prisoners I can chat with, my confinement won’t be so lonely at least’... by Tymora was I wrong... not much of a conversation these guys are.. “shh shh the goblins will hear us and beat us” is all I could get out of them.. I sang songs and recited prayers, called out for help.. the Goblins never beat me up for it.. nor them for that matter... —>
As he says this, the gnome follows Spotty into the other room, while giving a little wave and a <— Farewell —> to the Kobolds.
As he meets the others, he looks at Spotty and says in Draconic <— What an interesting bunch of travelers we have here... —> before continuing in Common:
Greetings, my saviors, the name is Eskie Timboon and I the greatest of the smallest disciples of Tymora you will ever meet!
His eyes turn towards Renny, and he catches a glimpse of the wyrmling behind her:
By Tymora!! Have I had one too many mist mushrooms this morning or is that a Gold Dragon behind you!?!
Renny eyes the group a moment before responding to Calcryx, <- Yes, you could say that. I'm just getting to know them... -> she proceeds to point out each and provide their name for Calcryx, "Everyone... meet Calcryx."
She looks over at Eskie, quirks an eyebrow at the gnome and nods, "Uh. Yup!" she will pick up her cloak and mask much of her dragon scale again.

"Greetings!" Zak says to Eskie. He has seemingly contained his laughing for the moment.
"Hey Spotty - are we going to take care of those other Kobolds in there like you did with Meepo?" ...aaaand then he bursts back into laughter again.
A few moments after that, hearing Renny introduce the dragon, Zak had no clue how to react with an introduction to a dragon. He looks down the hall at Renny and Calcryx, wide eyed and definitely not laughing anymore. He then slowly walks up to Renny and keeps trying to peek back into the room like over her.
"Could... could I pet it?!" Kind of saying this like the dragon can't understand him or something, like he's looking down at it like it's a pet.
Looking over Renny is not difficult, given their height difference (I would assume). This however does not prevent her from giving Zak a proper shove with both arms, "NO you can't pet him! He's not a puppy he's a dragon!" followed by a couple more shoves, likely with minimal effect, "Move... can we leave now?"

Zak is startled at Renny's actions and caught off guard actually stumbles back when she shoves him. He swiftly listens to her, and moves back a few feet more, saying nothing but a few small mumbles and trying to hide an Orc blush as he takes his post back against the wall in that hallway.
Gwenant snickers and claps a hand to her mouth at the sight of a hulking half-orc backing down from human girl some two feet shorter than him. The dragonling might not be any kind of pet, but right now Renny and Zak remind the gladiatrix of a grumpy cat and an eager puppy. She schools her features and nods in greeting at Calcryx, then turns to regard the newly freed gnome. "Eskie, was it? My name's Gwenant," she pauses to look back at the cell he was trapped in, then adds, "How uh... how long were stuck in there?"
Eskie Timboon, at your service, my lady! A month, two? Maybe more.. who knows.. at first they had me chained up to the wall, but I kept slipping out of them... woopsies.. he he he. But then they learnt... who'd think Goblins would learn.... and they stuck me in that small hell of a cage...

Zak starts to use his Greatsword like a hockey stick and starts to shoot the silver coins around up against the wall.
Renny, Martin, Calcryx, Gwenant, Hef, Spotty, Eskie and the three Kobold prisoners suddenly start hearing the unusual sound of small metal coins hitting rock and falling to the ground. The clings are short but sharp, and echo slightly through the empty hallways of the ruins.

"Heh heh heh Heh HEh HEH HEH HEH HAA HAA HAAAA!" Zak finds Renny's question extremely funny for some reason. He doesn't answer her, just keeps trying to contain his laughter.
Renny looks at Zak like he's lost his damn mind and then looks at the others to seek her answer instead.
"No boom today. Boom tomorrow. There's always a boom tomorrow"
