Trammel is sent flying with Poljen looking through his eyes. The skies seem clear, as do the towers, walls, and courtyards. There are two buildings in the front courtyard, the larger of the pair has its doors flung open.

Trammel doesn't see anything moving right off, and so enters the building.
It proves to be an oversized set of stables. Whatever was housed in here originally, it now plays host to about two dozen wyverns. They seem to be trained, though one of them is clearly eyeing the eagle as a desired snack. Fortunately it is within a strong pen.
Three pens sit with their doors wide open. Some strewn about tack, a bit of spilled dry meat, and other such things seem to hint that someone left this place in a hurry with some of the wyverns.

Not seeing any reason to tempt fate, or a wyvern, Poljen summons Trammet back out and turns to the others. "The stable has some wyverns. A few have been taken. It is possible they will eventually bring reinforcements. If we are going to finish taking this castle, we'd best do so, land and unload it. Then we can see about dropping it on others if they come after us. I am unable to see inside the barracks. But we should check them first."
Ignazio claps politely a few seconds after everyone else. He then follows Lora during the sweep of the castle. "I can't think of better company for scouting a dragon. And as wrong as it seems to deny the world your visage, I could make you invisible as well."
He then addresses the issue of the ballista. "Does anyone know this dragon's weakness? I wonder if we could build a "Silver bullet."
Out of Character: I forgot to post my to hit roll and damage ahead of time, two rounds. This was to decapitate the two sleeping guards.
Looking from Velon to Tazskan, the drow will nod before saying, "Yes, let's look for the materials that we could use to build a ballista with the dragon slaying giant bow. Thanks for not shooting down the idea." Zarra was glad to see that there were a few receptive to the idea.
Involving who may have took in some of the wyverns, what's a consideration that they may go to bring reinforcements, Zarra will offer, "Yes, we should hurry. We need to finish this up, land this castle, and clear it out before such arrive." The drow wondered if they should call in reinforcements, to help with the dragon.

Nikolaos joins the group offering to keep an eye out for any magic that he can see.
Seeing the two guards on the floor Nikolaos chuckles "Amateurs" to himself. "If there is one thing that spending a lifetime in taverns across Faerun has taught me is how to tell one wine from another. I think it would be interesting to find where they have been purchasing their supplies." He then produces a cup from his mess kit and proceeds to sample the different wines spitting as he goes as to not dull his senses.
Out of Character: I don't know what I should roll for wine snobbery. If perception +6, if investigation+1, others see character sheet.
Specific Action: Nikolaos constantly cast detect magic as a ritual keeping an eye out for anything interesting, while exploring with the group.
