"Mmphm."

theres a coo sound from behind the tree

Then a slight tug sound...

and... coming out to greet it's troll rescuers, is this creature

It offers up the flower to Dagmar and Frank as a thank you!

"Dagmar. It's for you."

Dagmar crouches, extending a hand. "Hey there."

It drops the flower in her hand. The little guy has a collar, sort of.

Dagmar takes the flower, and checks the collar with her other hand - is there a tag, any info? "Thank you."

The chimerical fang designed tag says '

and under that it says ...

"Twin Ports?"

Bilbo makes a sound that sounds like a 'scrurff?" but not a word that they can tell, just a bark substitute

"Twin Ports. Long way from home." Frank rumbles.

Bilbo decides to spin in place, then grins at them in an almost canine fashion

Clearly, Bilbo is a Pet. Whatever type of chimera he is

And socialized nicely, but really who DOESN'T run from a Redcap with a Machete?

"You know where that is, Frank?"

"We should get him home, right?"

"Mphmm." Frank considers "Yes. Kingdom of Grass, northerly; includes Duluth."

Bilbo bumps against their ankles. He's not much bigger than two bit, who could totally kick his ass

"Shit, that is far. How'd he get here?" Absently scritching Bilbo's ears.

Bilbo has these cute little horns. And lllleeaans into the scratching so much that if she stopped he'd fall over

A tiny grin.

"You have a way with animals. And chimera."

yup. Biblo has a little tail that is wagging a mile a minute

"Is there a trodway to Duluth?"

"Firnost is in Grass..."

Frank knows Twin Ports County, not well, but by road. He has heard Olgar mention trods there as well, but if Olgar knows of any trods to there from here he didn't mention it

"Mm. KC is a fair piece from Duluth, though. Yes, there are trods but you'd have to know the way. Or ways. Olgar might. Never asked him about it."

Brow furrow.

"But he has a home."

"Seems like. We'll look into getting him back to it." Frank looks at the lil cutie "You want to go home, Bilbo?"

Bilbo bounces!The word home causing him to be even happier. He looks about as if expecting someone, then looks cconfused when that someone is not there.

Yes, no doubt he has an owner he loves very much

Frown. "Poor little guy."

"Right then. Dagmar, you want to take him back to the Lodge, get to work on finding who he belongs to? I can finish the patrol; not much left."

"Yeah, okay."

And Frank goes off to finish the patrol, while Bilbo and Dagmar head to the lodge
