Everyone agrees that it may be goblins are responsible and that they were using some type of stick shoes to cover their tracks. The fact that large wolf tracks were found too could mean that they have dire wolves too. George tells you that no ransoms have been made and that maybe something else is going on too. He thinks maybe tomorrow you explore more to the west in the woods.
Three people leave Georges home to go look at the edge of the woods where they found the wood stick type shoes that someone was using. Whether it be goblins or some other creatures they do not know. As they get back to the woods they begin to look about. I will need search, spot and listen checks from all who are at the edge of the woods.
Avan - While looking about you hear something to the north and west, turning that way you spot some movement in the trees a bit away from you three but looks to be headed in your general direction.
Victor - You spot some tracks that look like small humanoids heading in a west then north west direction. It looks to be many tracks from different individuals. You can see ten different sets of prints.
You all try to hide and wait to see what coming your way. Soon you can make out four small shapes creeping your way trying to stay in the shadows. As they get closer you can see the yellowish brown skin most associate with goblins. They are wearing hooded cloaks and soon they are almost on you when they spot Zork. They say something to each other and they all look at Zork and draw out their morning stars. One says in common. "Looks as if we have another prize to take back to Yorda. He will be quite pleased." They start to spread out to flank Zorks position.
What are you actions? I will need initiative roll form the group if you decide to attack.
Avan casts entangle on the goblin closest to him as his cat attacks the goblin. The goblin is entangled and can not move. The goblin that is closest to Victor attacks and misses. Victor attacks back killing the goblin. The goblin closest to Zork attacks him and misses. Zork attacks back and kills the goblin. The fourth goblin sees all this and runs away to the north and west not even bothering to look behind to see if anyone is following him. What is your next action?
When searching the goblins you find very little on them besides their studded leather and morning stars. The three dead goblins have a total of 5 copper on them.
The captured Goblin hangs his head and says "We no what you talk. You seek something yes? Let me go I tell you things."
You are unable to find any vines in this area that would be strong enough to use as ropes. The Goblin looks around as people start to leave. "You free me? I take you now?"
Victor is able to make it back to George's farmstead to inform the others what is going on. Krusten sees him approaching.
