 Together, choose:

   - ESCORT the LUREWITCH

 When you TAKE A RISK or USE MAGIC, roll 1d6. 
   + add 1d6 if your background prepared you for this. 
   + add 1d6 if the action aligns with your dragon's trait. 
   + add 1d6 if you have help. 
 You succeed without cost if the highest die= 5, 6.  
 Else, something goes wrong.  The GM tells you what. 

 When you HARM NATURE, keep tally.  At III, your dragon's spirit returns to the earth.
