"Somethings been bothering me Lorundil," his attantion still on the blade. "Goblins here in the forest. There have never been greenskins here before so why are they here now? Also have you ever heard of giant spiders digging pit's? Something is very wrong here."

[dx144]

"You're speaking as if there is something drawing them out here and something is working with the Spiders. Could there be a Greenskin camp nearby?" Spoke Lorundil with a concerned look on his face from knowing the destruction the Greenskins can cause.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

"That is what I fear." He throws the dirty blades into the embers, "How is that leg of your's?"

[dx144]

"Not too bad. Hurts a bit if I put a bit of pressure on it but I guess that should fade soon. Enough about me. Should we stop pursuit of the bear and search for a possible Greenskin camp?" Asked Lorundil poking his leg.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

"Hum" he responds, "perhaps your right. Instead of one bear looks like we may be fighting multiple goblins. Not what you signed up for.... You still wish to follow me?"

[dx144]

"I joined with to help protect. If I left now because of a greater threat I would be betraying myself. I'm not going anywhere soon. Should we inform your son of the development?" Spoke Lorundil as he prepared to follow Lord Algen.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

He thinks for a minute. "Lets find these little bastards and evict them."
He walks over to his spear and picks it up. "Lets hunt," he says with a smile.

[dx144]

"Time to hunt a greater beast!" Laughed Lorundil.

"Any idea where to start?" Asked Lorundil.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

"To the glade where the tree have fallen. The timber would make good building materials and there already is an open space for their camp."

[spoiler=ooc] lol wish you'd pick this place first now? lol[/spoiler]

He picks up the remaining things and set's off into the tree line. His course set in his mind. There was no need to look for tracks this time!!

"This way," he calls to Lorundil as he began to make way.

[dx144]

[spoiler=ooc]I'm difficult =P[/spoiler]

Lorundil keeps up with Lord Algen and ignored a small pressure pain in his ripped right leg.

Even though Lorundil and Algen didn't need to look for tracks Lorundil still kept a eye out for anything suspicious or dangerous.

Everywhere he can see signs of the goblins passing. They here not skilled woodsmen.

It did not take long. Lord Algen held up his hand and pointed silently forward. Ahead was the glade and several small tents. The goblins had begun to build a small fort but it was a long way from being ready to keep anyone out. They could see several of the green skins and all were busy with construction.

"Well well well," Algen whispered, "So, how would you play this?"

[dx144]

"Want some payback? Fire through the forest back at them. Would be highly risky doing that though. We are more outnumbered than when he were back the hut. Your call." Whispered back Lorundil as he grasped his bow.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

"If you believe your skilled enough with that bow take out those who stray from the others?"
He points and every now and then you see that they do seperate often. Attack is not what they are expecting. With well placed killing shots it would be possible to lessen the numbers before the alarm went up.

[dx144]

"I will give it my best. Be prepared. My shot has been off a little but with them now not knowing I am there gives me more time to focus on my enemy. What will you be doing while I pick them off?" Spoke Lorundil.

As Lorundil awaited the response pulled an arrow out of his quiver and had it ready to fire.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

[spoiler=ooc] OK you see 6 goblins. I require you to make a roll for each. If your roll is above 25 it's an outright kill. For every roll under I will roll to see if the allarm is raised. Again 1,2,3 are critical fails. If you get one of them, your bow string snaps and you can use the bow no longer. Good luck[/spoiler]

Lorundil's arrow flies and just catches the Goblin in the chest. With the other Goblins not knowing Lorundil's location or that the other Goblin had died continued doing their labouring work.

Lorundil drew out another arrow and sighted his next target.

[Spoiler=Lorundil Ranged Attack]1d100 rolled for a total of: 78 (78)[/spoiler]

Another arrow went straight into another Goblin. The Goblin's still unaware of the fate for them. Lorundil continued firing his arrows.

[Spoiler=Lorundil Ranged Attack]1d100 rolled for a total of: 68 (68)[/spoiler]

Another arrow flew straight into the next Goblin's chest. Still none had learnt of Lorundil or their dead.

[spoiler=Lorundil Ranged Attack]1d100 rolled for a total of: 33 (33)[/spoiler]

The next Goblin fell to its death when an arrow pierced into the Goblin's neck. Blood flew out of the Goblin's neck as it gasped for air. Lorundil smirked as he had easily took out four of the Goblins and now pulled out his next arrow and targeted his next foe.

The second last Goblin had an arrow fly into it's chest. It fell motionless to the floor. Lorundil feeling secure that he had now killed all of the enemies except for one and prepared his last needed arrow. He focused on the last foe.

[Spoiler=Lorundil Ranged Attack]1d100 rolled for a total of: 93 (93)[/spoiler]

The final Goblin had the arrow fly straight into its head. The arrow entered through the Goblin's left eye and had gone through into its Goblin sized brain. Lorundil laughed at the foolishness of the Greenskins.

Lorundil quickly made his way to Lord Algen to ask what to do now.

"Lord Algen. The Greenskins are dead and never knew what hit them. What to do now?" Whispered Lorundil not wanting to raise the Greenskin's interest.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

"Good lad knew you had it in ya. Keep that bow drawn and cover me we're going to finish this."

He stands and begins to walk into the camp. He motions for you to stay hidden.

You hear a shout and can see 3 Goblins. One, a female looks much older than the others and is decorated in coloured paints and feathers.

"Who is the Leader of this band of tresspassers on MY land!"
Lord Algen shouts.

You can see that the goblins are looking around for their allies but no one comes.

The female calls. "We are ov de Night Bones! We claim dis land as ours. Leave or die!"

[dx144]

Lorundil keeps his bow close and has an arrow ready but awaits the time to fire. Listening to the Goblins and Lord Algen Lorundil keeps and eye on what the Goblins are doing.

Lorundil looks at the Goblins to see if there is anything suspicious.

[Talon Lord Othrim]

You see at the back of the camp a goblin leading a very large bear Lord Algen would not be able to see it from his possition.

[dx144]

Lorundil instantly felt the need to warn Lord Algen but knew he couldn't.

Lorundil tried to move concealed and get a better shot on the bear.
