Alright alright in a group I can disappear. But what the heck are they thinking now! They are drawing attention to us! They are even crazier than I. Hxaptös thinks to the Voice. He stands ready, unwilling to say anything but he will help if this group is intent on doing something stupid. If combat breaks out he will cast lesser confusion on the goblin with the bag. He does nothing to restrain Bail despite his reluctance to get involved.*
Exactly! Would THEY expect you to get involved? To draw attention to yourself? No! They expect you to hide, to be a scared little boy. They don't expect you in the company of fighters, they will discount such ridiculous tales. the voice snaps back.
"Look, midgets," he says aloud, turning to the goblins. "You´re already too short. It would be a shame to make you a head shorter. So, why don´t you do the intelligent thing and open that bag?"
"I'd listen to him. The last goblin he got mad at had to be cleaned up with a bucket." Mel says.
The goblins look at each other, then back at the group. One or two look concerned. The others look unimpressed. "
You couldn't take my head even if I gave it to you with a ribbon on it. Take a hike longshanks," the leader snarls.
Both sides are ready for conflict, and when it's clear that no compromise can be reached, the skywalks of Sharn erupt into violence. Bail jumps down to the level below, axe raised up over his head, eyes bright with terrible rage. The axe comes down upon the head of the closest goblin, and cleaves him in two lengthwise. Blood spatters those around him as his companions move into action. Mel fires an arrow from her bow, striking another goblin in the shoulder, while Kazan tries to leap out of hiding and take one of the two he has pegged for spellcasters by surprise. His jump is off and his attack goes wide however, and his victim starts at his abrupt appearance.
Harolk makes an impressive entrance by cleaving the goblin leader's head clean off his shoulders. Rayni targets another un-armored goblin with her orb of lightning, catching him full in the chest. The goblin in knocked off his feat and crumples to the ground. Hxaptös' Voice makes a strange grumbling noise that explodes into a dark shadowy figure in the face of another untouched goblin foe. Whatever he sees leaves him terrified, and he goes screaming off into the darkness. The goblin Kazan tried to hit leaps back from him and fires a fiery dart at him, striking him in the shoulder. The last one standing makes a token effort to avenge his leader's death by striking Harolk with a glancing blow. Both then take off after the screaming one, running as fast as their little legs can carry them.
