Kill other hydra by tearing their heart halfway out and watch as their body fails to be able to regenerate blood fast enough, and they suffer from anemia without dying in misery and pain until they finally heal, and all the lost and repost blood prompts the body to create so much that their arteries burst, simultaneously, more and more as the blood loss is not enough until...they explode.I'm not sure if that works, and if it does it's cruel.

1. There's still lots of things to worry about. And while we're on it, stealth in a swamp is a lot different that stealth in a city...QuoteArgh, there are fewer people, fewer anything that would be interested in us in the wilderness than in a city. We aren't based on blending in- we're diminutive lizards. We stick out in an elven/human/dwarven city. We're based on being completely unseen, as in hidden. Being hidden is being hidden no matter where you're doing it, (commense finding a hypothetical that makes a difference, GO), so in all facets scouting the wilderness should be easier than thieving a city. Sight/sound we have covered. Smell? Civ pets can smell too. Tracks are the only base uncovered, and we're diminutive lizard people that live and make do in a swamp; I'm sure we have tricks.QuotesnipRemember, though, there's differences between sneaking-in-thieving (where you can find places almost no one is and use distractions) and sneaking-in-scouting (where you have to be on guard 24/7 against every hunter, woodcutter, bear, etc).
Thieves are not scouts and scouts are not thieves. They are probably better scouts than they would be if they weren't so good at thieving, but they're not great scouts.
Only one sure way to find out, and imo it's a better bet than what we'd find with the dwarves.
2. Scouting for goblins is an uncertain, delayed, and questionable advantage over chatting with dwarves. Certainly, if dwarves turn out to not work well for us, by all means scout for goblins, but at this point they have about equal potential for utility, so let's head to the closer ones we know are nearby.

1. Our goals vary. For me, godhood is a mean rather than an end.QuoteWait a second, our objective is to become a god, not a friend remember? And I still don't see a reason a long-lived friend won't just be a venerated ancestral ally after, huh, 1000 years. Dwarves are long-lived, and that plan is officially very far-sighted.QuotesnipThe reason we'd become a god is so that we'd have power over dwarves. A powerful friend would also have power.
Besides, we are mutant dragons; we will probably live long enough to outlast several dwarven generations. Now, a friend; a few generations out, a leader; a few more, a god.
2. Dwarves typically don't age that much slower than humans. A mere thousand years was enough to turn a saintly person into a god without further interference, it's enough to turn a constant mighty aid into a god.

1. Most of your arguments for scouting have included notes about how we should find gobline.]snip1.We aint lookin for goblin settlements. 2.The lizards would have had to sneak around the town when it was completely unknown to them before it became vaguely familiar. 3.Except we'd be a beetle and the town could be slightly larger than a needle.
2. They probably started when it was just a village and passed the knowledge through the generations. The current crop has no need to be able to sneak around in unfamiliar cities.
3. We're in a swamp. Swamps tend to have lots of foliage. That blocks views of towns.

-editThat's not just DF, that's fantasy in general. But yes.
btw I just want to point out, we're all still operating on baseless assumptions originating from the DF universe. For instance, dwarves could have a lifespan of 10 years. Or they could be immortal. Just saying.
-----
I'd like to repeat my position: FOR NOW, WE SHOULD INVESTIGATE THE DWARVES WITHOUT MASTICATION OR DIGESTION THEREOF, AND IF THAT DOESN'T OR CAN'T WORK OUT WE CAN THEN TRY TO FIND GOBLINS OR SOMETHING.
