"Caro, do you think you can get the girl to calm down? Make sure she's uninjured? And I need to know if she knows how many there were, besides 'a lot', and which way they came from and went. If we're going to find her father, it will help to know." He stood up and turned back to the rest. "Dza, you're in, right? The rest of you, how soon can you move?"

She seemed out of breath and scared. The Druid slipped out of her chair and came next to Caro, who was much quicker to calming the girl down and asking the same questions she had.<br/><br/>The girl calmed down some and most of her injuries were superficial.  She said, "Um, I don't know where they came from.  They came during the night.  Swooped down on the farm.  Took my dad and...and...."  She started bawling again.<br/><br/>The druid was amazed at how well Caro took care of the child. She had a very feminine touch, and concern in her eyes. Orchid wondered briefly about how Caro would be as a mother. She concluded that she would do very well. Orchid took her place next to Caro, listening.<br/><br/>As Caro comforted the girl she said, "I'm...I'm sorry.  Um, well, uh, who are you?  Where did you come from?  And why do you want to help?"<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=227485.msg11701944#msg11701944">Quote from: Etherealgirl on 06-10-2015, 15:11:51</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"Goblin-like? Perhaps the Shadow Goblins from before?" Orchid asked the other party members, then looked back to the child. "What is a spider farm?" she questioned curiously. What would goblins want with such a place? Her mind pictured a large farm with giant free roaming spiders. The thought unease her. <br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>The girl's eyes flew open wide.  "You really are strange people!  You have never heard of a spider farm?  Spiders make silk, which is used for clothing and other things.  We harvest it."<br/><br/>The elderly woman wearing high quality clothing walked over to the group and asked, "Heri, are you alright?  And Ulayah?  He's not dead is he?"  Concern was written all over the woman's face.<br/><br/>tag - all
