<div class="floatleft">(https://www.gmbinder.com/images/g6xXaQ3.png)</div>Amara had never spoken to a goblin before.  This creature could scarcely stand still.  He was incredibly energetic.  If it weren't for the fact that he liked to kill things, he might resemble something like a very friendly dog on a leash.  Except this goblin hated dogs!  So don't call him that.<br/><br/>So as I was saying, Amara did ask these questions, but one couldn't converse with a goblin the same way one would converse with a person.  So the conversation was repeated, but this time allowing the goblin an opportunity to answer without confusing him.  And... well, the GM doesn't really know how goblins speak, so what was uttered in response is merely an approximation.<br/><br/>The conversation was thus:<br/><br/>"So, you want to live," Amara asked.<br/><br/>"Yess, yess, I want to live!" the goblin bellowed.   "No killing, pleeease!"<br/><br/>"Good.  We want information," Amara continued.<br/><br/>"And I have's it, I have's it!" the goblin replied.<br/><br/>"It sounds like we can do business," Amara continued.<br/><br/>"Yes, trade!  Thimbles and thatches and thingies and th--... th---... th..." the goblin replied.<br/><br/>"First, tell us about the dwarf and the man you took," Amara continued.<br/><br/>"I know the ones!  Short fat one, tall old one!  I know, I know, I know!!" the goblin replied.  He actually loved the fact that they were talking about something that he knew about because he was not a very creative goblin.<br/><br/>"Are they alive?" Amara asked.<br/><br/>"I don't know!" the goblin replied.<br/><br/>"Where are they?" Amara asked.<br/><br/>"The tall old one's in the eating cave!" the goblin said, pointing to the cave.   "We're gonna eat him for supper!  Very good!!  Boil him for stew, YUM!  The short fat one go to King Grol." the goblin replied.<br/><br/>"Then, tell us why you chose them for your victims," Amara finally asked.<br/><br/>"King Grol wanted short fat one!  I don't know why!  Why King Grol make ZakZak jump in pit of fire?  He just does stuff!"
