The latter. Better to save it for emergencies, such as cancelling out a small part of the field to stop someone from dying.

Getting closer the broken, half sunken and crushed carts appear to be arranged in a rough circle like a barricade. Peering past them metal gleams in the sand - weapons, coins, jewelry in no particular order. The source of the noise appears to have settled beneath it leading Vadania to wonder how deep the sand here really is.

Carefully Vadania moves some of the debris aside to clear a path while Neera stands watch. Whatever was making the noise is now silent though Vadania does not believe it has moved from the middle of the dragons horde - such as it is.
Much of it seems mundane with no way of detecting magic this deep into the cavern, and too small to be a bed for a dragon so large. Vadania finds a significant amount of fabric and other trade goods amongst the pieces that she must push aside discarded like the rest.

Vadania will keep searching for a bit, but is getting the idea that she's not going to find anything useful here. But as long as she's here, she might as well look...

With a path cleared Vadania steps forward cautiously flanked by Neera while the rest look on from just outside of the magical barrier. She makes it no more than a few steps onto the coins and other detritus when a creature the size of a dog leaps out with a less than impressive roar, casting up a cloud of stinging, blinding sand.

Vadania tries talking to the little dragon in a nonthreatening manner, "Hello there. Can you understand me? I don't think your mother is coming back. I was looking for something to help fight the ones responsible for your mother's death."

The dragon growls something back, clearly a language though not the common tongue. Moriana translates, "Begone, begone... the draconic language"

Vadania will slowly back away. As she does so she will ask Moriana, "Can you translate what I just said for the Dragon?"

Neera tries to control herself, not just Russian and slay the baby Dragon.
Will Save: LRS7tcPjp_1-20+10=14
It helps that being a baby, it wouldn't put up much of a fight.1-20

Moriana translates and the dragon responds with only a single word that Moriana repeats as "why?".
Though the tone of the dragons answer is somewhat lost in the translation is does not seem greatly concerned, perhaps not believing your words.

Vadania tries to explain through Moriana, "Your mother went looking for more treasure in a long abandoned city. When we caught up to her, we found that she had been killed and her body possessed by shadows. We were able to dispel the shadows, but the demons that created them still need to be dealt with. The demons are very strong, so we are looking for tools to help us fight them. How about you, will you be ok here by yourself? I don't know how long it will be before the khan realize that your mother isn't here any more and come to investigate and find you."
OOC: I've already forgotton what the things were were fighting were called...

The tiny dragon cocks its head, "what for me?" Moriana translates.

Vadania answers through her translator, "What do you want? Do you want food? Or do you want someone to protect you until you grow strong?"
