The Journal of Sabin (Feb)

Ambush!!! Goblin attack. Goblins were short lived as we slaughtered this band of boot biters. Even pretty boy almost got dirty. I have never really cared for the taste of goblin and these things are too weak to be considered anything but pests. I killed a goblin or two but the party would have slaughtered these vermin even if I was not there. So we moved on.

Down the beach we heading and up to an underwater cave. As I can see without the requirement of a light source I went into the water to check out the cave, trask at my side. He obviously could not see as he almost ran his head into the rocks a couple of times. Inside the cave we found what Sedgwick described as bunyip, half shark and something else. After a discussion we decided to leave this sea creature alone for now and move on. Feasting on the meat of the bunyip just was not meant to be, at least not yet!

Backtracking we worked our way up to towards the bridge we found caves cut into the brush. Rigal, Olithar and I scouted into the tunnels. We witness Globins dropping other globins into a hole. We later discovered that they were feeding the bunyip. We found what looked to be two groups of goblins, a main force and an area with growling sounds. A great cat like thing jumped out and as we took its life we heard a goblin cry out, looks like someone lost a familiar. There was some confusion as Avia started to run over and help Nolan but instead had to run back and save Trask as he was overrun with goblins. Rigal, traks, Olithar, and Avia had this situation well in hand so I moved back over to assist Nolan. As I returned to Nolan the goblin mage returned with a flaming blade. That cool flaming blade hit me and everything went blank. Nolan must have slain this creature while I was out, I am not sure how long I was out but someone had stripped the gear off the goblin mage while I was out. Through the ringing in my ears I can almost hear fathers words “Magic, why you want to become frail and weak, only those cursed with magic in their blood not true warriors. You not even bless by the gods, you bring dishonor to the family. You no longer my son”. Could I have actually not traveled down the correct path? My master did tell me that the path of the wizard is not suited for everyone and that I still must find my true path. Did I dishonor my family for nothing?

For the rest of the day we found interesting ways to kill goblins, Olithar played goblin on a stick to present a goblin and then shoot bolts at the towers. We didn’t really get to kill any goblins that way but we were entertained. Sedgwick used silent image to create a dog and then other goblins as we used these images to lure countless goblins to their deaths. At least this time as was able to properly assist Nolan and Avia in slaughtering these pesky goblins. Bloody goblins and goblins parts started to stack up, although the goblins are fresh meat I have never liked the taste of goblin so I will just eat the travel rations. The humans are squeamish anyway so eating goblins is not really an option; besides these are just weak goblins, there is nothing to be gain by consuming there heart.
