We already have some tamed monsters in the bastion. And if they do live to this size, and remain friendly, mounts.

[ Duke wants to keep a baby lizard. But keeping other monsters away? Sure, the knight can help with that. ]

Whenever you're ready to get going.

Wait.

You pull that core out now, and the babies are gonna go mad.

Let me try to calm their minds first. My dancing will, hopefully, at least give us that much. And if it doesn't... we'll know pretty much immediately.

[Colin doesn't wait for any statements or protests. That core comes out, those youngsters are going to have to die if they're not pacified. It's that simple. He once again moves into the steps of the Forest Suite, attempting to find the rhythm of the wild so that he can guide it, and keep the closest wild creatures calm. Will it be able to stand up to a core? Who knows. Will it let them bring them back to the Bastion? Well, there's definitely no harm in trying...]

All right, let's see if it works. Gives me a minute to catch my breath.

To be clear, though the time delay I'm talking about isn't the cast for the teleport - that's just a couple of seconds. It's more that I have to get the core out of the beast and get any entrails and such off it until it, plus my clothes, weigh less than fifty pounds total - that's all I can teleport. That could take anywhere from a few seconds to a couple minutes.
