Nanny delays

The goblin screams ”It burns it burns!”.
Aryas silences the last goblin by knocking it out.
You have two unconscious goblins, two dying goblins, and one dead goblin.
|
Aryas looks at Hekk and hesitantly says.
"Look Hekk, I do not know what the laws are in these lands but outright killing them ... I do not know. I mean, I try to follow rules, ok! Never tounge kiss on the first date, comb your hair every morning, don't kill people as the road to redemption is open for everyone. You know what I mean?" Aryas asks with a usually uncommon stern look.
|
There's that stupid kissing thing again. And now he's throwing in combing hair. Is he TRYING to piss me off.
"These are goblins. Think of them as termites that need to be exterminated. You let them loose and sure as Lamashtu hates your guts they will be gutting farmers again. Would you feel better if we throw together a little court, try them, and convict them?"
|
"Mercenaries killing goblins is just the circle of life, Aryas. If we let their numbers grow, they will kill all of the prey animals around here, and for a goblin that includes humans. Would you stop a wolf from killing a fawn? Your thoughtfulness is sweet, but I admire Hekk's efficiency.
I suppose we could interrogate one of them before putting it down, but I don't know if we'd find out anything useful."
Unless it seems like someone is strongly objecting, Nanny will draw her dagger to give Hekk a hand.
|
|
Aryas thinks for a moment.
”Hmm... you are quite convincing. I do not want to be responsible for the death of innocents. And they really were talking a lot about killing and burning. But what if these guys are actually followers of a good god and just now realised that the path they were on is wrong?! Look, I trust your judgment more than mine. But ... can we talk to one of them? We can stabilise the wounded and bind the others so that I can use smelling salts to wake them up.“ Aryas suggests.
|
Tathane helps to bind the last living goblin then he crouches down in front of it and starts speaking to in in Goblin.
"Did you see what my big friend there did to your friends? You don't want that to happen to you too, do you? So why don't you tell me what you're all about? Why are you guys attacking?
|
|
Aryas suddenly notices that all but one goblin is dead... and just shakes his head.
Aryas takes out his book of masterwork oratory speeches and reads some relevant sections.
He awakens the remaining goblin with his salt.
”Young goblin, please be aware that you are bound and cannot escape! But also be aware that this is your chance to tell us your story so that we understand why you were hiding in a sheep and why you were attacking us with the intent to kill us!? Please speak ... “ Aryas says calmly.

Hekk finishes off one of the unconscious goblins.
Aryas objects to cold killing a goblin.
Hekk counters that it’s goblin today or farmers tomorrow.

Hekk agrees to leave one to question
Aryas concedes the point to Hekk.
Tathane binds the last goblin and Aryas waves the smelling salts under its nose awakening it.
Tathane begins questioning the captive goblin. The goblin spits ”We kill all longshanks! Scary big-chief send us out of highfort!”
As the goblin is speaking you hear the sound of deranged, off-key singing filter onto the field. The goblin smiles as it bost ”Many more of us! You die now!”
“Chase them! Chase them! Low and high!
Cut their eyes out, make them cry!
Cut them! Chop them! Slice them up!
Feed them to our goblin pups!”
Drawn by the previous combat, three goblins scramble into the field through a break in the fence riding comically undersized goblin dogs. The goblin riders think they look very fearsome.

Allergic Reaction (Ex) A goblin dog's dander is highly irritating to all creatures save those with the goblinoid subtype. A non-goblinoid creature damaged by a goblin dog's bite, who deals damage to a goblin dog with a natural weapon or unarmed attack, or who otherwise comes into contact with a goblin dog (including attempts to grapple or ride the creature) must make a DC 12 Fortitude save or break out in an itching rash. A creature affected by this rash takes a –2 penalty to Dexterity and Charisma for 1 day (multiple allergic reactions do not stack). Remove disease or any magical healing removes the rash instantly. This is a disease effect. The save DC is Constitution-based.

Tathane faces the goblin dog with a defensive stance. He moves side to side trying to find an opening and then at the right moment jabs with his dagger. His attack misses badly. Tathane notices Aryas facing another goblin dog and sees an opening. He quickly moves away from the one he's facing and moves to flank Aryas's dog.
|
|
Aryas explains to his next victim that even though he will not kill them they will probably die anyway. Just before he mercifully strikes the young goblin dog knocking it out.
Tathane misses with his dagger, then dances past the blue and green dog to take up flank.
Nursing her wounds, Nanny backs off and uses magic to create a thicket of brambles around the to goblin archers.
A thick hedge of sticky brambles suddenly and silently spring up from the ground in closing the two goblins with in its box shape. You hear them mutter in goblin ”Stupid bushes get out of the way!”
Hekk moves up and stabs his spear through the newly formed hedge at the now unseen goblin. Unfortunately Hekk believes the illusion, but he hits the goblin anyway killing it.
Tarael uses a wand to make all her allies feel blessed!
The blue goblin dog pup moves up and attacks Aryas, but misses.

Tathane hearing the goblin speak successfully disbelieves the bramble hedge illusion and steps in stabbing the goblin with his dagger.
The goblin snarls as it is hit, and remains standing.
Nanny lets the illusion magic go and fires an arrow past the ear of the goblin without harm.
