The Archmage was in a fowl temper. He marched through the great hall of the dragon barracks followed by his acoyltes and apprentices. The sorcerers, and the palace staff had quickly learned over the past week to stay out of his way. His normally calm fatherly expression had taken on it a scowl that hightened the scare by his right eye. Archmages who blessed Mir with growth or knowelgde or conquest were given title names and the Archmage Eubratosa had recieved the title of Father. Even now the Sorcerers and the army had discovered how true that statement was. The granite floors of the hall echoed as the Archmages boot came in contact with the floor. The Archmages booted feet walked over the groves and holes that had been formed by centuries of dragons claws walking upon these floors. The iron doors that opened into the Council hall swung open at the Archmages aproch. The Council Hall was a large room easly able to hold three dozen people easly. Bookcase were lined along two of the walls. These were full to overflowing with maps and journals and charts. Along the wall facing the door stood a large map of qaiyore, and all around it were other important maps. There were four table in the room. A small one had been places in front of the large map with only a single chair behing it. There were three other tables set up with verious amounts of chairs at each table. The middle of the three already had the entire Council of Twelve setted around it. Then again every one was in there place. The summon had made clear tardiness was not to be excepted. The Archmage crossed the room to stand behing his chair. He watched as his apprentice and Acoyltes places there burden on his table and then with a bow quietly left. Shuting the door behind them. The Archmage sat down scowling at the occupents of the room. The various members of the military that occupided two of the other three tables in the room did not dare look at Archmage, and many in the Council did not want to look either finding it more comforting to look at there notes, and other materials on the table. The Counciler Haventh stood to bring the meeting to order, but before he could speak the Archmage spoke. "Sit down Haventh." The Archmage stood up. "We are going to skip the formalities and also the record." He said giving the scrib a glance. The scribe looked up with a suprised look. Then he nodded his head. He began to gather his ink, pens and parchment, and quietly slipped out the door. The silence countined as the Archmage contined to look at the crowed before he spoke. "Why do we have a missing dragon?" No one answeared. "Well I don't like lossing things." The Archmage said. His frown still there. Actions 1 & 2: Find the dragon or figure out what happened. A Dragon has come up missing. The Archmage wants to find it. If they could find out what has happened to it that would be okay, but the main goal is to find the Dragon, and bring it back. The Coutrie training has been delayed this year so that they can help with the search. The Archmage is pulling out everything he has. First he will be sending out a coutrie, and a Council member to search the route of the dragon. To see if anything happened along the route, and since these flights do not leave the isle of Celamyr that will not be hard follow. Two member will ride one of the dragons to look from the air and the others in the courtie, and the Council member will travel along the ground looking for signs. This includes looking for any magical residues of spells. That is were the Council Member comes handy. Second the is pulling out the Pedant of Truth and using it again (action 4 in 1415.) The Archmage is having Niotrosa and Warlord Ria uses the pedant of truth. They are to go using it and interviewing all of other dragon riders and also friends and relatives of the missing rider. They are going to work on rebuilding her activities for the past month before she disapered. The Archmage is going to be using the scepter of Mir to search for the dragon itself. The dragon has been called by the scepter before.

The Sorceress Minacantha, the head of the White Robes of the Brotherhood of Sorcery will lead the diplomatic expedition to find out information. There will be an apology, with an explanation, for the rude resecption of the Ka'Shari delgates several years back. They will also bring with them a handmade copy of the Counciler Thanta, a Council member under the Emperor Archmage Sharion II, "The Dragon, a study of these mighty beast life."
