You went near the lake as agreed, it was an unexpected owl to receive from Poppy. She seemed tense...

But anyway, approaching the coast you saw her and it looked like she was holding something. Immediately when she noticed you arrive she pushed the two of you a little closer to the trees. "Ssshhhhhh...I don't want anyone to see it"

It was a slightly awkward situation but then from inside her cloak Poppy shows you what she was hiding. It was a dragon egg. By your raised of eyebrow she understood the doubt and initial assumption.

"No, I didn't steal this from a dragon's nest, I found it in a poachers camp. Look at them, it's so small...why are poachers now going after dragons? They don't are a bit TOO much for them?"
