You part the bushes. Sheltered within, amid a colorful flower bed, a tiny mauve dragon is practising flaming. Most unusual, you're sure you've heard of a purple dragon but mauve & a fire breather too! With all of its attention focused on the task at claw, it doesn't notice your presence & curiosity draws you forward.

You are being watched. You are sure of it, you look about but see nothing unusual, well a mauve dragon of course but you knew about that. Still perhaps it would be prudent to find someone in the Realms & get a little more information about the creature first. You turn back to the path that runs north & south.
