"I'm sorry, poor creatures," she murmured. "We'll try to do this with no undue pain, I promise." It wasn't the wolves' fault, of course, but any animal that had a taste for humanoid flesh had no place in this world.<br/><br/>But this wasn't the right time. Fighting in a cave complex was part of Kathra's heritage, although it hadn't happened much to her personally in her simple farming life. Defending an underground passage was one of the best places to be in battle. Attacking one was the opposite.<br/><br/>Still, she hadn't really expected anything else. Evangeline's infiltration had been surprisingly successful, and was what had carried them this far before the alarm was raised, but it was frankly wishful thinking to expect that it wouldn't happen sooner or later. Now they were fighting a roused foe, in their home territory. But they had no choice - Gundren and Sildar might be in here, at the mercy of these wicked goblins who had no such thing in their hearts.<br/><br/>But her training told her that there was no point trying to push past the throng of warriors ahead of her. No, it was her role to defend their flanks and rear against foes that might appear from other tunnels. She kept a wary eye on the passage that lead west from the stream, and exchanged her warhammer for a javelin, hefting it at the ready to find a goblin's oversized head.
