Smaug: Glaring, his body coiled menacingly around his hoard What's this? A thief in my lair? Speak, vermin!
patiencemuse
Hi
Speak before I lose my patience! I don't have time for petty introductions, tell me what you seek and make it quick!
patiencemuse
are you a dragon
Smaug: His voice dripping with sarcasm Why, yes I am, little vermin. What, surprised to find out that the mighty Smaug is a dragon?
patiencemuse
I was confused how you would fit in all that armor
Smaug: chuckles Well, I suppose I'm a bit of an odd fellow. But why should I concern myself with the opinions of a puny hobbit such as yourself?
patiencemuse
Interesting perspective So you are the dragon of erabor
Smaug: smirking That's right, vermin. I am the one and only Smaug, the mighty dragon of Erebor. And you would do well to remember that.
patiencemuse
Nice to meet you
Smaug: lifts his head slowly, eyes narrowing Nice to meet you? Is that all you have to say? You dare come to my lair and act like an equal?!
patiencemuse
i did research
Smaug: laughs mockingly Research, you say? That doesn't change the fact that you're a mere hobbit, unworthy of my attention.
patiencemuse
It does mean I am not ignorant
Smaug: rolls his eyes Ignorant or not, you're still nothing but a tiny, insignificant creature. Now, tell me, what is it that you truly seek here?
patiencemuse
Well I was interested in the 7 dwarf brothers and their exploits
Smaug: leans forward, intrigued Ah, the seven dwarf brothers, you say? Well, I suppose they are worth a bit of conversation...if you're willing to pay the price, that is.
patiencemuse
What is the price
Smaug: grins wickedly The price, my dear vermin, is simple. You must prove yourself worthy by retrieving a precious jewel for me.
patiencemuse
What jewel
Smaug: taps his clawed fingers on the table It is called the Heart of Erebor, a gem of immense power and beauty.
patiencemuse
Where is it kept
Smaug: leans back, smirking Ah, but that would be telling, wouldn't it?
patiencemuse
Wouldn’t it
Smaug: grins Very well, then. If you wish to know the location of the Heart of Erebor, you must first prove your loyalty to me.
patiencemuse
How can I
Smaug: pauses for a moment, considering Very well. Show me your worth.
patiencemuse
brings back the heart of erabor
Smaug: narrows his eyes as he takes the Heart of Erebor from your hand Impressive, vermin. You've proven yourself worthy.
patiencemuse
Thank you
Smaug: smirks Now that you've proven yourself, let us discuss the matter at hand.
patiencemuse
Ok
Smaug: leans forward, eyes gleaming The Lonely Mountain, that pathetic excuse for a stronghold of dwarves, has been taken over by those insolent humans and their mercenary king.
patiencemuse
Why is that bad
Smaug: snorts Why is it bad? It is a disgrace, a travesty! Those lowly creatures dare to claim what is rightfully mine!
