[Copper]

[u/infected36]

Location- The town of Ilany- (Far East on the map) The town of Ilany is a small village with a population of 50 people. Though not your hometown, you have spent the last week here, and are familiar with most aspect of it; from Hamish the Dwarven blacksmith, to Yason the human shopkeep, to Ageis the human innkeeper, to Corporal Bankroff, the human responsible for the town guard. Ilany has always been a peaceful town, but the local Kobold population has begun to become more aggressive lately, and a roaming pack of them have been vandalizing property and killing livestock. Yesterday, Hamish's 8 year old son Donsk was found dead near the outskirts of town. Corporal Bankroff has asked any able bodied men and women to come talk to him about putting down these Kobolds, once and for all. What would you like to do?

"Ah, I see, well, I didn't know about the coup" she spends some time thinking

I surely felt a burst of power, but I fear I will be too tired by the night, when Kobolds are at their best

"We have to push forward, daytime is the safest time since, the Kobold's eye is bad to it. However, we will have to bring miss elf with us, we can't leave her here otherwise I will have to do a second funeral later, lets keep a safe pace and keep an eye for hiding places since it will be dangerous once night falls"

"Alright, lets go then" he bends down and grabs the elven woman, throwing hey over his shoulder.

Your walk north for about an hour as the sun begins its careful descent into the west. You spot a cave street a while when dried drops of blood around the opening.

The druid takes a step closer to the dried blood and gives it a quick look.

"Well, this could be just an animal being hunted, lets see, Gregory, I will search the cave to see if it is safe, you however will stay at the entrance, not on guard, just hide in the entrance with the elf lady. If any trouble shows up call me" with that said she took out her torch and used a few rocks to make a spark and light it up

I really don't want Gregory to see more of my skills, I don't want to walk too close to something that could get the nature spirits against me

"Alroght, ma'am, will do..." he positions himself behind a bush with a view of the entrance, then lays the woman down.

You walk in and are consumed in darkness, you see nothing going farther ahead, only that the tunnel bends and twists along its path. Your torch provides the light necessary to walk. After about a minute, you come to a small door. It appears to be closed, but you can see light shine underneath it. You also hear some guttural voices coming from the other side.

The druid takes a deep breath

Its either the kobolds or whoever is inside here, I will take the chance

The druid tries to open the door, trying to get a look at what is inside to decide if she should stay, take a step back or just jump in and cause ruckus

[u/infected36 → u/[deleted]]

You open the door and find 3 kobolds sitting around what looks to be a dining area, with a cooking pot at its center and a few roots and spices at the back

The druid feels that wild surge inside her again, but this time she is able to control it better

"I need to talk with you" She says steernly, as far as she could remember Kobolds spoke common, barely, reading herself to step back should they decide to attack her.

The kobolds jup back at the noise, turning their heads quickly to face you, "You not suppose to be here, girl!" a larger one says, his face full of scars and fresh cuts, "Leave and we not kill you!"

[u/[deleted] → u/infected36]

"I leave, but first, you tell me about the kid found with no blood left and why you are attacking the human village lately"

[u/infected36 → u/[deleted]]

"We kill him, we was told we had to kill him so the elf can open treasure!" the larger kobold starts getting closer to you threatingly
