Goblins in the Woods

Rydan inspects the oblong chunk of metal phisically and "Dweomerifically" and finds it to be an ordinary chunk of metal. The only markings on it are some light scrape marks on all corners of one end that run lengthwise back toward the opposite end. The scrapes do not run the length of the piece, but fade out about halfway down its length.

Rydan absently scratches the back of his ear as he stares at the mysterious lump of metal. "I can't figure what it is or how it got these marks. He's a goblin. He must have thought it had some significance. Maybe it was his child's teething toy? Perhaps it used to be a weapon and he stuck it in the mouth of some critter that was trying to eat him?"

"Well, we are going to obtain the helm of an Ogre by whatever means we deem most expedient. It has been observed that further along this road is an area where Ogres are active. It was suggested we set up our base of operations at John Applejohn's roadhouse, The Quiet Harpy as this is near enough the center of reported Ogre activity." No doubt Rydan's keen memory earned him good marks in school.

Where we are going

Well, you had been going to the tavern not too far from here to look for leads on an adventure [John Applejohn's roudhouse called The Quiet Harpy, John Applejohn also serves as moneychanger, chirurgeon, father confessor, and hedge wizard. And occasionally blacksmith and animal husbandman. -- see Post 162.], when you discovered the goblins in the woods. They did appear to be headed somewhere rather purposefully, marching in formation and what-not, but then, Goblins often do that, or so you've heard, in emulation of their larger, more vicious brethren Orcs. From whence they came is an open question.

OOC: The tavern/roadhouse is on the road, but the PCs observed/heard/sensed something that caught their attention off the road, which led directly to the Goblin encounter.

First Post
Irinea stops and looks back. "Are we proceeding to the tavern or investigating what these filthy creatures were up to here?"
