Were talking skulls better than the eerie mask?
It was a question that Tal would now wrestle with in the dark of night amid cold sweat and tangled sheets, but in the moment he almost bit his tongue as he tried to backpedal from the creepy sight. His grip on Boreal thankfully negated the attempted retreat as her four-talon drive proved up to the challenge and the two remained locked the same distance from the shrine.
But Ludo had made its demand, and Tal swallowed hard as he wrestled one arm around his hungry dragon and managed to snag one of the s'mores with the other. He tossed it into one waiting mandible (was it even attached to a tongue??) and then repeated the gesture with the second treat. Only once it was gone from sight did Boreal abruptly cease her attempted thievery, dropping her haunches to the ground so that Tal stumbled forward at the lack of resistance and almost faceplanted into the altar. "Uh... thanks?" he asked the god hopefully as he retrieved his weapon and hastily backpedaled again.
He'd find out soon enough if it all gone according to plan!
