So bizarre

A Smythe link

Problems up your way

This locale?

My guest came asking after Cedric

Why?

He went on quest.

Lost his team. Fell prey.

To?

Beware of dragons

Close as kindred.

Can you be ANY more cryptic?

Sorry, keeping it short

Cedric did his own search

Hired an unregistered reaver

She lives there, or did.

Clarify. Cedric searched for a dragon?

Yes, but no

He looked for a Hajime

Have you met her?

No sign.

For good reason

Probably hiding her

Why?

Cedric quested for dragons.

Got his team killed.

All but two women.

Went missing for months.

Found later by wolves.

Pregnant. Crossbred. There.
