with "The Dream Team" of:

DM Note
There was an episode of the TV show LIE TO ME in which they explained that you can’t see the signs of someone lying if they think they are telling the truth; thus one trick is to have the manipulating person convince someone else that something is true and send that person to go tell that information to the expert in lie detection. I tried to use that type of trickery, but my players saw right through it…
4U Session 14 Log
Homebrew Campaign (Alternate Forgotten Realms)
[Modules: Modified -----]
The Dream Team (Kori, Puff, Aegle, and Prince Mursalin) made their way through the wilderness and mountains toward the silver dragon’s lair. On the way, Aegle scouted ahead and saw two groups: (1) was a bunch of yuan-ti carrying treasure, led by a 2-headed albino and (2) some brown and red kobolds coming and going from a system of caves.
When the team confronted the yuan-ti, who were from the Obsidian Fang and not the Bayou Brigade faction, the enemies wanted to talk since they were on a mission to persuade the dragon to side with them over the other yuan-ti clan. The Dream Team just wanted to kill the enemies, but it turned into a bloody combat; in the end, the team survived with just one of the yuan-ti – a woman with a bracelet that they let go warn the others after they learned that Ariela (the female winged elf) had been successful in causing a huge civil war with the yuan-ti, but now she was captured by the evoker at the Obsidian Fang.
After the battle, the team found the red-brown kobolds and convinced them to take them to the silver kobold/dragon territory; they realized the kobold factions were also enemies with one another. Kori, Puff, Aegle, and Prince Mursalin got permission to enter and speak with the silver dragon. The dragon was very friendly and interested in hearing news from them. The team had captured the “treasure” the yuan-ti were going to offer the dragon; some “ancient elven wine” but it was actually yuan-ti potion to try to convert and mind control the dragon; luckily the team realized it before the dragon drank it.
With the silver dragon, the team came up with 5 objectives to help the region: (1) kill the evil evoker of Obsidian Fang; (2) take out the death cleric of the Bayou Brigade; (3) kill the yuan-ti Dendarian cleric; (4) defeat the mummy and devils that had the red-brown kobold caves; and (5) then be strong enough to take out the elder elemental phoenix held at Elvenport. They also realized that it was possible the undead version of Old Gnawbone the green dragon in this universe that the devils and red-brown kobolds had could possibly be brought back to life with Puff’s staff since it probably had a spark of Old Gnawbone’s soul in it.
The team rested in the silver dragon’s guest quarters while making plans to go save Ariela from the evoker in the swamp.
