POV ???:
Casia opened her eyes. She couldn't see where she was as everything was dark. Confusion spread through her mind as she woke in an unknown place. She squirmed her eyes, but she could only see slight silhouettes of old boxes and furniture.
Soon panic replaced her confusion as she remembered the masked pervert that attacked her and likely taken advantage of her while unconscious. Just the thoughts of that turned her body hot, making all traces of her panic vanish into thin air.
She giggled to herself, 'Hihhi, to be so pretty... I should have been more careful with these beauty potions.'
She tried to wiggle with her hands, but they were firmly tied to a metallic pole sticking from a wall behind her.
Suddenly steps started to come from above her, as the sound of boots tapping on a stone floor was getting closer and closer to her.
Casia shuddered, imagining the lecherous man slowly approaching her and fondling her breasts. Her face immediately turned red, a little bit of her excitement leaking into her body language.
A silhouette of a tall man soon appeared in the darkness, Casia couldn't see any details, but just the man's height turned her on. She felt no fear, knowing that someone was likely looking for her.
"Ohhh, no, a pervert came to play with my body!" her high-pitched voice resounded through the darkness, bouncing from the walls of the confined space.
The silhouette immediately froze, their steps stopping, "N-no, nothing like that!"
"S-sso you want me to play with-with y-your body?"
The silhouette immediately vanished, their steps getting further and further away from her. Soon a loud shouting came from a distance.
"Hey, guys, who the heck have you kidnapped this time?! That woman probably inhaled too much potion vapours!"
POV Vesuvius:
The dragon slowly waited, his heart beating with an imaginary clock ticking in his head as he waited for his quest. The black stone around him was so hot that it was glowing in the bright yellow light. His body was so hot that the floor under him would have already melted if it wasn't for the fire resistance runes engraved in the tower.

Vesuvius quickly read through his quest, his mood turning sour. With a feeling of being lost seeping through his whole body and soul, 'This is like searching for a needle in the haystack.'
Fifty years sounded like a lot at first, but as Vesuvius thought about all of the things that he needed to do, his head spun, 'First, I need to find items and people that I have no idea how they looked nor their location then I need to trap their souls somehow.'
The difficulty that it reeked of was so insane that Vesuvius even doubted if he could accomplish it. Still, he had two hopes that kept him afloat, 'Robbing the temple must have caught some attention. Someone must know more about it. Then there are wyrms and the dragon god. Maybe I can inquire them for some additional information.'
Even with his two possible solutions Vesuvius still faced even more problems that made his head spin even more, 'How strong are these targets, especially that wyrm? Also, how can I trap a soul?'
The whole quest felt like an unsurpassable mountain before the dragon, making his head spin just looking at how tall it was.
Then there were the three bonus objectives that were so brutal and cruel that even Vesuvius flinched about executing them. Still, he more than understood why the dragon god was so pissed off, 'If they robbed their temple, then that should be like stealing from their hoard. No wonder they don't want just to kill them.'
In the end, he shook his head, 'This will have to wait a few years. I definitely don't feel strong enough just to fly around and stir trouble, but I should start looking for some clues.'
Feeling like a man with colossal dept above his head Vesuvius looked at the ring before him, wanting to improve his mood. He outstretched his long finger, covered in thick black armour with a dim white glow.
Immediately the ring glowed, growing in size like a sponge in the water. Then the ring launched from the ground, flying towards the outstretched finger, sticking itself on it with perfect accuracy.
A slight feeling of getting stronger immediately spread through the dragon's body.
The dragon's massive claw lifted from the ground, the two reptilian eyes firmly locked on its shiny crystal claws.
'Let's hope that it was worth it.'
A circuit flared up in the dragon's mind, hot magical energy pumping through his veins and entering his claws.
The air around the claws distorted, and in a blinding flash, the claws ignited in pristine white flames. They almost looked like lightsabers. The black stone melted around them, the runes in the floor violently flashing.
Vesuvius calmed down, a tranquil feeling replacing all of his worries as he kept looking at the beautiful white flames dancing around his claws.
'Finally, the white flames, a step closer to my goal of an invisible flame.'
The dragon was more than aware of how destructive his flames had become. His flames, boosted by mystical magic, were already much more damaging than they should be with their temperature, and now they turned even more.
The dragon in Vesuvius was itching to find a worthy opponent to unleash his flames on.
