Devaguea frowned, before explaining that they had found an underground goblin fortress near the river they had been exploring. If there were no goblins here, that made him... concerned. He did remember the goblin shrieking something about 'pretty lady,' same as the troll and the ring on the siege owlbear was definitely the fine strands of a woman who took care of her appearance (or had really good breeding to make that unnecessary), but he had hoped that she would have kept a pattern.<br/><br/>He shook the thought off, and described the base they had taken out, before listening to the report. Cynthia had been assisting the ranging patrols, and the silver dragon was helping everywhere she could, while Tina assisted with healing. Akiros was dealing with a report of bandits to the southwest, but did not think it was related.<br/><br/>Devaguea frowned at the flicker of unfamiliar magic, the long patrol making him JUST slow enough to not be able to do more than get himself clear before the area was covered in thorns. He blinked at the effect, before shaking his head. "Alright, I can now both confirm that the Lady is a powerful spellcaster or has one in her service, AND that Akiros now owes me five gold pieces. Anyone need rescuing, or can you get out on your own?"<br/><br/>Once everyone got out, Devaguea regrouped with the others, and offered a spot on his back to Korima. That way she could get out of the way far faster. Since she was the second 'soft' target of the group, staying together made it easier to keep both of them safe. Once everyone was ready, the group spread out a bit more, to ensure only one group would get hit again by that trap, and resumed their movement.
