Additional compensation
Seamus haggled with the village elder, and managed to bump the reward to 200 copper and a barrel of ale. Having left Reuben back at the village, the two of you stealthily approach the entrance to the goblin cave. You draw your sword and Seamus grips his ax. There's a single goblin sentry standing guard outside the cave. You recognized the small green creature with sharp yellow teeth and a strong repugnant smell, your father had killed one trying to steal crops when you were younger. The goblin seemed tired as he kept nodding off, leaning against his wooden spear to nap. A swing of Seamus' ax took the sleepy goblin's head clean off. You grab a torch from the cave's entrance and the two of you creep inside, following a series of faint distant sounds. It almost sounds like someone is crying out in pain. You feel a painful knot in your stomach as you hope the elf girl is alright. You follow the cave deeper in and are surprise to see sunlight in the distance.
The two of you slowly approach the exit of the cave to find a small clearing, a group of about ten goblins are drinking ale and dancing around a large bonfire. The screams of pain you had heard were actually the sounds of the goblins partying. You see an eleventh goblin emerge from the trees stumbling his way back into camp. Behind him follows a young elf girl. She has wavy blonde hair that falls down to her hips, her breasts are perky and the size of too large grapefruits, she's wearing nothing but a short green tunic dress and sandals that wrap up to her knees.
"Who's next boys!" She yells at the crowd of goblins. The goblins all eagerly jump up and down, waving their hands in the air. "Oh come on Aakt, you had me twice this morning, put your hand down." She looks over the goblins seemingly contemplating something. "I choose...Klart!" The goblins let out a collective groan, as one goblin excitedly runs over to the girl, and leads her back into the woods with his hand on her ass.
"What do you think that's about?" You ask Seamus.
"Don't know." He says. "But maybe we should kill them while she's not here, less chance of her getting hurt."
"Right." You let out a loud battle cry as you and Seamus storm the Goblin camp. The goblins, drunk and inattentive, go down easily. Body parts go flying with every swing of your blade. Seamus stops to take a swig of drink in between burying his ax in goblin skulls.
"I've got things under control here, you go get the girl!" He yells before taking another drink.
You run into the darkness of the woods and follow a faint sound
