"You've got the foot in being the intern, so perhaps you can step in before things get messy... Cuz I'm pretty sure I'm about to stir things up..." Pikachu says to Lidiya.
"We seek the Heart of Oniryumaru, Daimyo-sama." Pikachu announces.
"Interesting. Your heart is important to our mission." Whimbly rubs his chin, "Perhaps you can survive without it so this is a more civil affair."
Whimbly grins, " Then we might be able to work out... A deal."
The daimyo opens his kimono to reveal his bare chest. A thin sheath of wrinkled skin covers a protruding ribcage which houses a fist-sized mass that pulsates with violet light. The old man's heartbeat is almost audible, or at least it's easy enough to imagine with the visual aid.
Daimyo: "Four hundred years ago, I had reached the height of my success - rule over the eastern expanse of Takenuma, sizable army, fancy palace, huge harem, all the good stuff. But, I also had a bum ticker and this nagging thing called 'mortality'. With so much to live for, I wasn't ready to leave this world. Fortunately, one of my underlings told me about a heart - a heart that belonged to a DRAGON! Not just any dragon, the mightiest dragon of them all. And it was just locked away somewhere. Collecting dust! So, I enlisted him and a small team of brave adventurers to enter the dragon's lair and retrieve the cure for my dilemma. They succeeded and I've been happily ruling these swamps ever since. I was so grateful that I gave all the members of that team promotions!
"Well, except for that cute little red-eyed girl. I would've made her my next wife, but she hopped into a magical carriage and I never saw her again!
"...But, I did achieve immortality, expand my kingdom, and gain command over the dead. That's cool."
A visible look of disgust can be seen on Lidiya's face.
Aurora prepares to render any attacks harmless. (Not actually casting the spell yet, but prepared.) "I believe you took that heart from its rightful owner..."
Whimbly shifts his form into an enormous baloth and perpares a dose of a special elixir using his tail-syringe.
"Sir, I am telling you this as a gesture of kindness." Rumbled Whimbly, "We're taking that heart. Peacefully or otherwise."

Yusuke: "Does something jog your memory, Tree?"
Lidiya stands off to the side with her typical crossed arms and rolled eyes.
Lidiya: "One of you gonna start the negotiations or do I have to do it?"
Something around here smells familiar.

Lidiya: "So that's what he did with that thing."

It goes without saying that the uninitiated are more than surprised by Tree's transformation.
Pikabuu: "AW *****! She really IS a dragon!"
Yusuke nearly bows in reverence.
Yusuke: "It...is she! The Great Sensei has returned from the Beyond!"
Daimyo: "D-D-D-DRAGON! There's a dragon in my throne room!"
Guards: !
Zombies: "Uuuuuuh."
Lidiya: "You stepped in it now, Dusky."
