Jack registers the dragon's presence but his attention is completely focused on not falling off his magical steed. He just has enough breath to shout at Oswald as his friend passes him by: "Damn this magic ! I didn't sign for this.... Aarhg !".
He barely has time to clutch on his horse's mane as the magical beast suddenly vaults over a fallen tree trunk and keeps going at neck-breaking speed.
.
As his horse speeds past Jharen, it leaps into the air to clear the fallen tree. Blinded by the light of the sun, Oswald doesn't see the tree and is forced to cling unpleasantly to the horse's neck as it jumps.
He calls back to Amber Jack; "I thought I asked you to call out logs for me?" His words are broken and not entirely clear due to him still hugging the horse, unsure if it is about to jump again.
Out of Character: He knows that there is a ally dragon with them, but the reflection of the sun off it's golden scales alone is bright enough that he knows he'd be blinded if he looked, so he doesn't.
Before the spectral horses appear, Poppo smiles back and Mari and says, "In that case, I better not go with the giant worm meat as the main course!"
Once the horses appear, Poppo tentatively mounts and grabs hold of whatever he can to remain in place as they speed along the road. He notes the presence of the dragon but, like Cratol, is much more concerned about remaining on the horse and not splatting on the side of the road should he be thrown.
Out of Character: : Apologies, family was very busy this weekend. Last week of vacation before school starts up but no other big events planned so much more regular posting from me.
Out of Character: KN, "Vratol?" Is that your not so subtle way of proposing a celebrity romance between Velon and Cratol, a la 'Brangelina'? The name does work, I'll give you that. It's better than 'Crelon' or something of the sort *wink*
Alternatively perhaps you were thinking more like Voltron. One super being combined of Cratol's speed and striking with Velon's divine powers and muscle. 6 green flame blades with smite per turn, perhaps?
Elyria returns the hug given to her by the wood elf, as well saying her goodbyes to Fay and everyone else with the words, "Thank you all, I hope to see you all in the future as well. With my brother as well, restored from his current state." She will go with Silas, waving as they left.

Still making sure that she was covered up, Zarra will grab her dagger as she still held a healing potion in her other hand and takes a defensive position while keeping seated on the bed provided for her while the drow rested. The drow wasn't sure what was going on, but will make sure not to be caught off guard.
She didn't to come off too aggressively, yet Zaara also wanting to make sure she could defend herself, and if they enter she will ask first in common and then elven if not understood, "Where am I, and why am I not dead?" Perhaps a bit blunt, though with confusion and suspicion in her tone, yet straightforward as well.

Three kobolds enter the chamber in quick succession, chatting amiably among themselves.
Two are a rather ordinary reddish brown. A male and a female, Zarra would guess based on their relative builds, but it is difficult to say for sure. Both are wearing well tailored, if drably colored clothing, a mixture of browns and dark greens. The third is rather remarkable in appearance, bearing scales that gleam like burnished gold, and wearing a fine dress in blue silk.
On seeing that Zarra is up, and still undressed, the brown female starts shoving her counterpart back out of the chamber, who in turn is grinning in apparent amusement as he goes.
The third spreads her hands to show she is not bearing a weapon, and says in a rather melodic voice, "Peace, you are in no danger here. This hideaway is not far from where you fell. The Bullywugs like to sacrifice captives, so they take people alive. But they do not particularly care if their victims are healthy or on their last legs, so I am afraid their treatment of you was rather rough. They apparently managed to impale your leg on an old spear lying in the swamp as they dragged you along."
She waves towards where the other two had disappeared, "You have Jad and Clara to thank for still being alive, they managed to use illusions to scare your captors away, and called me in to assist with your care."
"Your clothing appears to be dry now, do you need assistance with donning them?
Out of Character: I got interrupted typing this out four times in a row… Just one of those days.
