Nealaphh suppressed an irritated twitch when Dresden asked what exactly the plan was for the assault. The exact plan had been laid out in detail on the Dataverse for nearly two months now. Did the wizard, in all of his arcane studiousness, lack the facilities to fully read through the message that had doubtlessly drawn him here in the first place? No...no. Nealaphh blinked slowly, banishing the momentary flirtation of rage from its mind. It could make no assumptions about how and why the wizard had delivered himself into the God-Mind's service. Better to just be glad of his assistance and give him the answers he needed.
I am glad you ask, Mr. Dresden.
As Nealaphh said this, wisps of ash and soot began to swirl around the God-Mind, as it commanded the black dust to take shape by the sheer dexterity of its telekinesis. The whispering dust took on the rough shape of Death Mountain, with the Goron Village and their current position highlighted by a flickering cinder amidst the ash. A moment later, Tom arrived and delivered his findings on the survey of the path to the summit.
Harry Dresden, I would like you to meet Tom Riddle, my second. As he mentioned, there is only one path to the summit where Volvagia keeps its lair. The beast commands nearly all the dragon broods of the Ashen Steppes as their progenitor, so I am doubtless that when we move to attack Volvagia, its secondaries will swarm upon us.
Miniature flecks of ash, simulating a swarm of angry drakes, began buzzing around the map as the cinder traced its way up to the top of the miniature mountain.
Thus, our forces will be split into a three pronged assault. Alpha Squad, which will be responsible for attacking Volvagia itself, will continue on to the summit with Beta Squad. Gamma Squad will bring up the rear, and keep the dragon horde at bay while the other two squads perform their jobs.
Two more cinders appeared, splitting from the location of the first. One continued to the very top of the cone of ash, while the other skirted around the top of the caldera.
Beta Squad will infiltrate Volvagia's lair itself. Once Alpha Squad has sufficiently injured the dragon, they will flush it back into hiding. Beta Squad, having planted high-power explosives at key structural points within the caves, will collapse the summit of Death Mountain on Volvagia. This should disable the Dragon Prime long enough for it to be banished to the Underverse, where it can rampage and brood to its heart's content.
With that, the sifting model of the mountain collapsed in on itself and fell back onto the soot-ridden ground, causing a small cloud of black detritus to drift into the air around them. The red light of the Steppe's gleamed ominously off of Nealaphh's chitinous skin, and an updraft from a distant lava flow caused its robs to flick and slap the air gently.
Satisfied?

And, we dream of home I dream of life out of here Their dreams are small My dreams don't know fear I got my heart full of hope I will change everything No matter what I'm told How impossible it seems We did it before And we'll do it again We're indestructible Even when we're tired And we've been here before Just you and I
Don't try to rescue me I don't need to be rescued
