Challenge #03658-J005: Unskilled at Bargaining

A dragon "kidnaps" Wraithvine's friend, Gikka, and flew off with her. Though, oddly enough, seemed to be flying slow enough to let Wraithvine keep up.

Kobolds and Dragons go way back. Some say that when the world was very new, Dragons allegedly created Kobolds to be their servants. You know, since the bid to create Drakkonbred for similar purposes went so well[1].

Gikka, like many Kobolds, had dreams of being a "real" Dragon one day. It did not take much effort for Nurdoth Maviskal to lure Gikka away with promises.
