Heh. My grin grows even wider as I wonder who exactly is hunting whom.
Assuming the dragon is at least some distance away I will do the following. First, I will melt some frost and use the water to mask my scent. Second, I will leap from the tree in a trajectory that is seeming of a nice but fairly short loop that would take me around the dragon. However, I will instead zigzag to the opposite side of the dragon and create a much larger loop. I will be making extensive use of Thrash's bunkers for hiding and appearing to be moving in different directions than I actually am. Over the course of this whole thing, I will be reapplying snow to myself to further mask my scent. So instead of curving around the right (for example) I'm going to swing wide to the left and end up pretty close to my escape route (assuming the dragon goes for the bait). From there, I'll have access to escape and the dragon, depending on whether I decide to subdue or flee.
Durin, what exactly was its weakness? Also, anyone else wish to help me subdue the dragon and get it out of the gardens? No mind if you don't.
The dragon is steeper than anything in the mortal realms, but how much steeper is it than me and Thrash? Can we tell?
