Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

You don't have Mystic Eyes of any sort. Iri never had them as far as I can recall. As for hypnotism, there's a chance of you getting it to work, but as you've never done it before, your odds of success are not very high. It's something that can be improved later. It is definitely brokenly...
[X] Step inside cautiously, hand the egg over when you spot the dragon.
Your eyes roam the insides of the picturesque cavern, lingering on the crystalline lake and spotting your own reflection. You tense up when your image distorts as the waters begin churning. You take an anxious step backward...
Back up you go.
[X] "Wait here for me, okay?" Stuff him in the storage room.
[X] Make your way to where you think the nest is.
You reinforce your arm and punch the baron across his face. You're not really an expert on making people unconscious, but you figure blunt trauma should do the trick...
[X] Q&A with the baron.
The baron has no particular reason to answer your questions, but it won't hurt to try asking. You need something more to go on before you can figure out what your next move is. You're interrupted from your thoughts by the sounds of futile struggling. The baron has fallen...
[X] Conjure tiger, ambush with tiger. (non-lethal, if possible)
You've already removed the runes- whoever is down here with you knows you're here. You'd rather force a confrontation right now. And you'll force it in your favor. You weave your prana expertly into the shape of a glittering bronze...

Rolled 1d100+25 : 13 + 25, total 38
Rolled 1d100+40 : 87 + 40, total 127

It doesn't take quite that long. You can make one in about ten seconds. It would be an 'ambush' in the sense that they definitely wouldn't expect it, even if they would get time to react.
[X] Grab the egg, get out of here. Finder's keepers.
You don't know what a Rhyme Dragon egg looks like, but this looks like a good candidate for one. It's probably the reason behind the attacks. You're not sure what you're going to do with it, but you'd feel a lot better with it out of the...
Record of attacks (converted to the Gregorian calendar for ease of use)
February 11, 1421: farm razed, fields burned, 3 casualties

It's either cleaned up well or hasn't been used, you can't tell.
[X] Explore/examine something more thoroughly.
- [X] The Shrine
There's a large tapered banner hanging down from the ceiling behind the altar. It has an ornate drawing of a thunderstorm patterned onto it. The altar is at least...
[X] Overload the runes with Reinforcement.
You channel prana into the ink forming the runes. You're trying to erase the runes without triggering them. It takes some fine control, as the ink is but a thin layer on top of the wood, but you manage to direct the flow without mistakes.
Skill...
If I'm remembering correctly, that only happens when you channel the wrong amount of prana into what you're trying to reinforce. You can't reinforce flaws.
In this case, you'd be reinforcing the ink the runes are written with.
[X] Try doing something to the runes.
- [X] See if you can use decay on the runes.
You extend your decay toward the runes gently, trying to spark a reaction. Maybe you can reverse it to when it wasn't there? It's worth a shot, you think.
Nothing seems to be happening as you probe the runes...
