Goblins

The door of the inn opens and three rambunctious Goblins enter. They make a lot of noise before settling down on a table.” Hey barkeep, bring us some ale.” They begin laughing.

Mary rolls her eyes before grabbing some mugs and filling them with ale.” If these are the costumers that the ore mine will bring us, then gods grant me strength.” She hands the mugs to John, who smiles at her gratefully.

“Hey gents, welcome to the Old Swan Inn. You want anything to eat?” He puts the mugs in front of the Goblins.

The Goblins laugh and drink the ale joyously.” Sure, you got some roasted pork?” One of them asks.

John smiles at him. “Of course. I’ll be right back.” He walks over to Mary. “Hon can you handle these trouble makers while I bring them food?”

Mary smiles at him. “Sure dear.” John heads to the kitchen to get their order ready and when Mary sees that they have finished their drinks she brings a fresh tray to them.

“How do you like the ale boys?” She asks before putting the fresh mugs in front of them. She has the Goblins attention in a heartbeat. Mary is a voluptuous red head and while the humans are the majority in this world, they are still considered exotic creatures by other species. You wouldn’t believe the price that some of the other species are willing to pay to get with a human women.

The Goblins don’t hide their desire as they eye Mary.” Well sweet cheek the ale isn’t bad but the view is better.” One of the Goblins say, the other two laugh.

Mary rolls her eyes. She isn’t new to this kind of treatment. Males of all species hit on her every day.” That the best you got little guy?”

The Goblins grin at her. They trade a couple of jabs before she heads back behind the counter. A few minutes later John returns with their food.” They weren’t too much trouble?”

Mary shakes her head. “No just the usual. The little guys tried to flirt with me.”

John grins. “Well can’t blame them honey, you’re a total babe.”

Mary rolls her eyes at his lame comment. “Yeah yeah smart ass. Get to work.” John delivers the food to the Goblins and they devour it in record time. Soon the Goblins pay their tab and leave, making crude remarks at Mary on their way out.

“Asshats.” Mary says as they finally leave. John Chuckles at her remark. “C’mon babe you know how the world is. They think that a 90-year-old grandma is hot, you’re one of the hottest women in the world. Of course they hit on you."

Mary looks at her husband. "If you think these lame comments will make you get lucky you are wrong." She huffs then leaves to go do something. John just chuckles.
