Summary of Receipt
Espresso asks the Ouroborian for one of his teeth. He refused, so he went over to Naberius, bought one of his liquid courage drinks, and punched the dragon in the face. They had a brawl and knocked out one of its teeth in the process, but Espresso seems to be vaguely concussed so he’s out of it for the rest of the ‘night’.
