"I haven't gotten a clue, to be honest," answered Tasniom. He began to load his crossbow and placed a bolt securely in it. Just as he was going to ride up to them, one of the creatures pointed at their party and ordered something in a croaking voice. The one next to him shook his head a bit then extracted a small bow made of crude materials and shot a black arrow at them. The arrow barely missed Tasniom's scorpion. "Right," he said. "Not so friendly." He lifted his crossbow, aimed, and fired at the creature that shot the arrow. It went straight through his head, killing him. The archer's death brought up some commotion about the little group before they began to storm towards them.

"Ipe!" Drogo shrieked as one of the little green creatures had shot an arrow at him. Turning around to see the creature that shot it, Drogo pulled out his knife (one he grabbed off of some dead guy because the hobbits, themselves, apparently did not believe that Drogo needed one) and killed it to only realize that more were soon at come at him.

Tasniom reloaded his crossbow and fired once again, hitting another little green creature. He turned to the shapeshifter and said, "It's really not my fault that these creatures want to attack us." He dismounted his scorpion, put away his crossbow, and got out his scimitar, slicing through a creature. He then parried another attack. While holding his scimitar there to force the creature into a vulnerable position, he took out his axe and hacked his unprotected side. The creature howled in pain as Tasniom grinned. His grin was extinguished when yet another creature thrusted his spear into his back. Hissing in pain, he turned towards it when Tasniom's scorpion lifted the creature by her claws and stabbed it with her tail.

Grageon started muttering all sorts of things under his breath when the fight against the little green people started. They looked like forest gnomes to him. Nothing like the garden gnome, these creatures were like little green people.

Grageon, hoping his pony was safe, started bashing them about with his war hammer. He brought his hammer down on one of the green men's head, crushing it, and turned to the next. He started swinging his hammer to the side, and ended up going around in circles with it, taking out a few...

Estelle dodged the attack of one of the small green creatures as she drew her sword. Parrying one stroke she sliced the creature in two and quickly turned to strike down the next. Yet, for everyone she killed, another seemed to take its place. This is ridiculous. she thought in frustration as she parried one stroke while trying to evade the sword of another. Suddenly, another came at her, plunging its small sword into her leg. Estelle winced in pain as she sank to her knees. The creature gave a wicked grin and prepared to strike again when she picked up and tossed him against the nearest tree. Thalion immediately came to her aid then and stood in front of his mistress, burning all that threatened to come near her with his flaming body. "Thank you my friend," Estelle replied softly as she rose to her feet again and began to strike at the creatures anew.

"Well," Tasniom began but he was interrupted by yet another green creature who thought it was clever to sneak up behind him. Instead, however, Tasniom hacked his face with his axe. "Little fool," he hissed at him before he turned to a new foe.

"You know," Tasniom said as he decapitated a green creature. "I think they've had enough." And indeed, they were. The little captain, who had shrank in the back during the entire battle, gave a cry, which obviously was the cry to retreat, because the rest of the defeated party suddenly ran from the company. All but one, who was desperately trying to crawl to join them. Tasniom was on him before he had crawled a foot, while his scorpion (Yania) loomed in front of him.

"Now," Tasniom said, as he gently pressed his foot on its sliced knee. "You will tell me exactly what are you guys, why you are here, and what do you know of the evil in the East." At first, the creature didn't say a word, frustrating him. "I'm a very patient Lezmar," Tasniom reminded it, pressing his foot harder. "Tell me everything inside your pathetic little mind." Yania clicked her pincers anxiously and flexed her tail ominously.

Tasniom tapped his axe against his side impatiently as he waited for the creature to talk. "Come on, now," he said. "Speak, or I'll decide to feed you to my little pet here." It didn't talk. Tasniom sighed, positioned himself, and raised his bloody axe as if threatening to cut off a limb. Finally it squealed and said "Goblins...serve the dark...many more...kill...burn..." Tasniom smiled and said "Tell me more."

The poor goblin was now all to ready to comply. "Trolls...giants...monsters...minotaurs...orcs....mindlesses..." it started but it eventually went into senseless babbling. Tasniom sighed, nodded at Yania, and took out a dirty cloth to clean his axe with as he said "Grageon , you said something about goblins. Did they look like these guys?" The cries of the goblin pierced the air and interrupted the Lezmar. Before long, however, Yania had poisoned him and now was eating the goblin. "Excuse me," Tasniom said as he put his axe in his belt and began wiping his scimitar.

Grageon thought for a moment.
"At first, I thought they were evil little gnomes. But after seeing how the fight and flee, I'd say yes, they are goblins. Oi! This is a supprise. Minatours, giants, orcs, trolls. We're up against a hefty army here I see. But, I wonder what the little goblin meant by 'mindlesses'. Never heard of those before," he he said, taking a rag out of a pouch on his belt(a red-colored one at that), and wiped off his war hammer.

Just then Stoneheart(Grageon's pony) galloped up and almost ran over Grageon. He was dripping with sweat and awefully frightened. The dwarf quickly grabbed hold of his halter and tried to calm him down.
"Must've ran all the way around the lake," he mumbled to himself, patting the white pony's neck...

Tasnioim groaned loudly. He just realised that the goblin had stabbed him in the back with his spear. It didn't hit anything vital but it still brought pain to him. He walked towards Yania who was in the middle of her feeding and produced a small flask filled with water from his belt. He raised the flask so it was much easier for Yania to insert her sting into it and inject several drops of her poison. He took the flask of poison and inserted a pinch of powdered leaves into the flask and shook it vigourously. When he was finished, he took out another rag and allowed the solution to soak the rag. He washed his wound with the rag, which slowly helped the wound mend. As he did this, he turned to the group and said "I'm not so sure if the mindlesses are really even something we should be worried about. The goblin was babbling when he got to that part." He screwed the top of the flask. He seriously doubt any of the other race would get the same results as he did from the solution. "They probably don't exist."
