*he smiled as he started channeling his energy into the stone that confined him*
Zero: [I like the way you think, Ms Nyx, but I refuse to leave you chained like that]
*with that, he shot some illusions into the soldiers minds, making them believe that they were ballerinas*
Zero: [thats right dance your lives away]
*as the soldiers were busy dancing back to the middle of the camp, Zero felt the stone curse lift*
Zero: Ahhhh....finally free of that wretched spell...now about those chains...
*he sniffed them and looked them over*
Zero: Hmmmm....a powerful mage constructed these.....I do not know if I can break them, but I will not let you rot in my place
*he looked over at a nearby tree and smiled*
Zero: [Old one, may I ask a favour? This dragon here has saved my life and I wish her free, seeing as you are not magical, I believe you can break the chains and collar]
*the tree bent suddenly as if it were nodding and suddenly lashed out with it's branches to grasp the chains and started pulling until they snapped from the pressure*
Zero: [Now quickly, the collar...]
*the tree swayed again and pulled till the collar broke into two pieces*
Zero: [Excellent, thank you my old friend, I shall make sure that you blossom and receive extra attention] Now Ms Nyx, shall we make our exit?
*he gestured quickly to the mountains*
Zero: We must not linger
