You hack the door apart into small, irrelevant pieces. L33tz4n looks like she is about to ask why you just did that, but another high-pitched roar interrupts her.
The room behind the door has walls made from stone bricks and looks about one hundred feet long, with another door on the other side. A large shadow suggests something is hiding next to the door, but you are unable to see it without entering.

You yell at Fooruman for being stupid. And ugly.
"Ah, but I was not always stupid and ugly," he explains as the three of you walk towards the door, "at one time I was stupid and handsome."
"Do you think we should just charge in there like that?" L33tz4n asks, "whatever's in there doesn't sound nice." Ignoring her warning, you enter the door. Of course, once on the other side, you are greeted by a rather large and hungry looking dragon with its head about three feet from you. Horns portrude akwardly from all over it's skull and its warm, sulfuric breath suggests this is possibly the fire-breathing kind. Instinctively, you bring your katana down on it's head. The sword bounces off with a small "tink".

The dragon bites your head off. It's quite messy and hurts a little too. Game loaded from post 244.

Panicking, you flee back through the door, narrowly dodging a pillar of fire. "Summon soap!" you call to L33tz4n. She raises her hand, and with a flash of light, a small bar of soap skids into the room, past the dragon.
"Any other bright ideas?" she asks. The dragon puts it's eye up to the doorway and stares directly at you. Guessing your next command, L33tz4n raises her hand again. A pillar of green light shoots out of the ground, and the Mythslayer steps out of it.
Like the last time you saw him, the Mythslayer is wearing a long coat with stakes, mirrors, and various vials tied to every bit of it. "What can not exist will not-" he begins his cliche intro, but is cut off by your orders.
"Bullet. Dragon. Now," you tell him quickly. The Mythslayer fires a silver bullet directly at the dragon's eye. The bullet rocochets off and whizzes past your head. The dragon roars and blinks angrily, but seems unharmed.
The Mythslayer backs away and reaches for his sword defensively. "Well, it's not the poke-out-its-eye kind dragon," he concludes.

Mythslayer: Slit dragon's throat.
If that fails, have the MS distract the dragon while Shuri and Leetzan make a mad dash for the opposite door (have Shuri carry her if she has to).

Stop panicking, get out of the room again ( should be safe there assuming the dragon is too large to fit through ) and think over stuff clearly. In other words, check inventory and spells there.

"Let's run," you suggest, cursing under your breath.
"Where to?" L33tz4n asks, "this is the only way forward, and the dragon can't fit through the door. Easily, anyway."
"We could use summons as a diversion."
L33tz4n shakes her head, "they won't keep the dragon occupied for long enough to reach the other side. Anyway, we'll probably need all the summons we can get."
"What if we eat the dragon," Fooruman begins. You all manage to ignore him.
Looking back on it, you relize you should've asked Uberbob for some of the more useful things he carries around. The only useful thing you brought along was the Tail of Xeltoth.
You're guessing that L33tz4n has used up most of her mana by now, and the few charms you've gained an understanding of, haste and bless, don't seem like they'd be of any use right now. The closest thing to magic the Mythslayer has is the vial of Holy Water.

Best thing we could do with the Xeltoth-tail would be the usual tickle-huge-monster's-nose-so-it-sneezes. But that would probably be quite lethal.

XPPPPPPPPPPP

Equip Xeltoth's tail, if not already.
Wave tail at dragon. If the dragon eats Shuri or the tail, RELOAD.
Rest until mana is restored.
Check Inventory and Spells/Skill/Sanity.

Lem's first few commands are going to lead to a reload, so I'll just ignore them.

"We should rest until we've restored some magic," you suggest to L33tz4n. She doesn't appear to have heard you, and is staring out the door.
"That dragon," she says, scared, "I think it might understand us," you look out the door and see the dragon standing against the far wall. He leaps towards you and comes crashing into the doorway you are standing behind, then backing up to the far wall to repeat. "He's trying to get through to us!" L33tz4n screams, as the wall between you and the dragon shudders and begins to crack.

You start to head back, but it seems that a metal gate has closed about halfway down the hallway. Someone planned this palce good.

Talk to the dragon. Like, "Let's talk about it all over a nice cup of tail" or something.
..I once played a game where that actually worked.
Or feed the dragon the tail and hope that something neat happens. >D

"This tail is a magical item," you say, taking the disembodied Tail of Xeltoth out of your pocket, "maybe it will have some effect on the Dragon. You toss the tail through the door, calling out "Let's talk about this over a nice cup of tail!". You hear a chomp, and narrowly dodge another blast of fire, which this time smells like burning hair in addition to its usual sulfuric scent.

Reload? I ditched savegames for a reason, you know =P. Tis more fun this way.

Fresh out of ideas, you sit down and watch the dragon smash into the wall again and again.
"What are you doing?" L33tz4n asks.
"Watching," you respond.
She looks at you and then at the dragon. "I think leading the party has some kind of mental effect on people."

The dragon appears unharmed by the Tail of Xeltoth. It continues to crash against the crumbling wall.

I no longer change the POV upon command. Something about that in the first post, I think.

You walk up to the door, and, clearing your throat, call out "Excuse me, sir, would you be so kind as to allow us to pass?" The dragon continues to crash into the door, suggesting the answer was "no". The wall looks like it is about to collapse.
