The feathered one leads you to the inner cave which is a huge open area with many tunnels leading to living areas. He takes you to a cave on the far wall. "This is my quarters. You may wait here." The cave is furnished with animal-furs, and few wooden benches. Many charms hang from the ceiling. Feathers, bones and semiprecious stones are in abundance, as well as potted herbs. It seems he is somesort of medicine-man.
After a while, maybe three to five hours you hear banging of drums from outside and shortly the hobgoblin returns. "Warmaster Gheng has returned. I will take you to him now." He leads you once again outside and the large communal area is bustling with activity. A large circle has formed around a group of warriors.
These are the best eguipped warriors you have seen in this tribe. All wearing metal breastplates and carrying greatswords as well as bows. One of them has a cloak made of reptilian skin and he is carrying with another warrior a head of a huge beast. It looks like one of the lizards they use as mounts, but at least twice the size.
The feathered one bows before him and speaks in their own language. This is obviously the Warmaster. He looks at you and laughs saying something in goblinese. One of your aides whispers to you. "It seems he thinks you as puny little girl who can't possibly be a leader of such a force that we are."
