Having everyone along proved useful, as Jerrick saved the kobold that caught the wild crossbow shot. He looked over the captives, and frowned, having to decide between his natural inclination to not make a bigger target of himself, and his natural inclination to control his revenge, AND his natural inclination to keep the troops happy. In the end, he took the eldest of the girl children, all three women, and one of the men, and then let the others go to 'spread word of his coming.' Which also had a nice addition of sparing as many as he could.<br/><br/>Jerrick already had two slaves, so he decided to let the hobgoblins have one of the women, while the other two now served him. The girl he also kept as his personal servant, and nicely reminded everyone that he was in control of the group, and would get the lion's share. The only male went to the orc female, if only so she could have a personal toy, but he did simply give her a weighted look when he present him to her.<br/><br/>However, this week, he was expecting another drow raid, so they would be on the defensive for a couple weeks. Which meant he wanted the first of two secret doors installed, the first one in the vault, for the tunnel the kobolds had been digging when they had encountered the drow.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Journal Entry #22</div><div class="spoiler_body">And I now have enough female company to keep me quite happy for a while, along with one for future enjoyment, assuming I and her live that long. The orc got her first toy, and the hobgoblins now have a second one, so no complaints from anyone other than Jerrick, I suspect. Though he wouldn't find much pleasure in breaking farm women, no matter how attractive. Still, I have to save some room in this harem for the drow, and any future findings, and I doubt the troops would be happy with 'second hand' toys.</div></div>
