16Local aristocrats complain that the best artists and performers are being lured away by a mysterious patron's promises of riches. (Patron)
17A dragon can teach great magical secrets. But any would-be disciples must prove their worth by acquiring a valuable item to add to the dragon's hoard. (Teacher)
18A dragon teacher from a character's past (whom the character might not know is a dragon) asks for help tracking down a student who has turned to evil. (Teacher)
