The party talked over a couple of different things concerning the egg. Hrir said he didn't care as long as he got his 1/6 cut of the treasure value. He was then asked, with his mighty Appraise skill, how much he thought it was worth. He said 200,000 gp. No one took him seriously. Rockaneeshoo said he thought it was worth 100 gp, and offered Hrir double that. Someone brought up the possibility of selling it to the goblins, thinking that the goblins would surely be eaten by the baby dragon. Then they remembered (ie the GM told them) that these puny goblins had pushed the humans back for 15 years, and had even taken a fortified city. These puny goblins also manufacture golems. But what tipped it was when the GM said that visiting the goblins would require an adventure session. So they didn't go visit the goblins.
They did visit Berthold in Fovona, however. He had expanded his shop considerably, and said he'd raise the dragon, learn from it, and probably get a ducal appointment as royal dragon handler. In return he offered 20% off of all puchases and exchanges (gold for magical components) as well as first crack at any "good" stuff he got in. He also threw in a scroll of Locate Creature for the heck of it when Rhin asked. When questioned by Siala about his intentions, he made it clear that he was not interested in killing a baby dragon just to study it. Especially when he had so many dragon corpses coming in from the party already. He understood that adult dragons could develop into horrible creatures, as he was a survivor of a dragon raid many years ago. But he also understood that it was the upbringing that mattered the most when it came to intelligent beings.
The party offloaded the two juvie dragon corpses as well as the mom for a couple of thousand gold, and the deal was done.
Since K-Mark was off with his woman, and Chaz was laid out with the chicken pox, we didn't do anything other than play Citadels that evening. Next session Chaz will be in New York, and Mr. Too Frank will be off doing something else as well.
