When they reach its sumit, breaching however briefly the forest's canopy, the view that greets them is one both familiar yet terribly new. The Sun arches over the trees, its warm rays blunted by the breeze drifiting down to the mountain range now prominent to the north. And to the west and below the party at but a short jog away is the clearing where last they battled the goblin druid. The obelisk still stands at its center, but this time short red flames engulf it, flickering intensly and without apparent end. All around you see the signs of encampent, primitive bearhide covers obvioiusly meant to provide some relief from the elements; plumes of smoke rising teasingly in the air where fires once burned. The smell of rancid meat invading your noses. But no host of goblinoids that one would expect to occupy a camp such as this appears to be present.Standing some 30ft distant from each side of the obelisk is a hulking figure, some 7ft tall, four in all. They appear as large goblins. They bear an obvious similarity to the creature slain when the party entered in a duel with Nicos Aporos and his pet monsters (Chapter #2). They are silent, their torso's simply sweighing back and forth in what could be boredom as they stare blankly at the edges of the camp. They show no hint at having detected the Fist's presense.From somewhere in the forest west of the clearing, the faint screams of a multitude of man and monster can be detected at the periphery of your hearing. A battle has commenced...Bhartus: you spot two figures at opposite sides of the obelisk's base, cloked almost entirely into black robes, staring intesnly into the stone. Their size is that of goblins.</blockquote>
