*Before…

“So they are camped close?”
He looks at us and he nods. “It’s the only explanation; there must be a murderhole close by.”

“Goblins live in the mountains, or under them, they hate the sunlight it hurts their eyes so they live in the darkness and in caves.

I take a few more drinks but pass it back because my body is wanting me to drink it all and that wouldn’t be a good idea. I look at the others. “So what do we do? Do we go and track them? Do we look to our wounds and the horses? Do we move as fast as we can and try and warn others?”

As for this one, the calm before the storm. Enjoy.
