[2,609] Epic Fantasy 2nd POV

Hey everyone!

I am posting with my second chapter from my epic fantasy novel (currently "completed" but looking for some good feedback on what I have done).

This book is a large, multiple POV sprawling piece (yes, I know, not the best thing to start digging into for a first-time aspiring novelist, but I did it!).

Anyways, I've gotten feedback ranging from "good prose, bad pacing" to "I hate it", so don't feel bad for telling me like it is.

For those of you who want context/first chapter: First Chapter (completely different POV, but some context(?)

Specifics on feedback:

1. How's the action? I really want an engaging scene, but honestly, I haven't written a ton of fiction that I would consider "quality" (probably why I'm here eh?), so I want to know what you think of this specifically if you can!
2. Dialogue
3. Characterization, specifically with the POV of Federyc. Does it fall flat? Do you feel for him? Is he interesting to you at all?
4. I realize my setting isn't incredibly unique. Definitely heavily Medieval-Europe influence in this chapter (others are a bit different), so I don't necessarily need to hear "this setting sucks, I hate medieval Europe). Hey, some people like medieval Europe and dragons. I'm one of those people!

With all that being said, here's my 2nd chapter:
