Fire and Smoke

Searching for are families and brethren we found several strange animal and human bodies. Some we recognized and others had the faces of various creatures. Tracks were found and led to what looked like a dead end with wagon trails ahead. Suddenly Thrall announced that he saw something in the distance and upon further examination a Goblin war party. We took hurried to set up for the attack and I found some high ground on the second floor of one of the non burning buildings. Soon the Goblins approached and i readied my bow. I could see thrall take a mighty swing at a goblin and surprisingly it seemed to have little to no effect. These were no ordinary goblins.
 
I could hear the sound of drums beating and i carefully knocked an arrow and sunk an arrow into his thigh. I carefully sunk back down into hiding. Moments later thrall fell and Kharos shouted surrender. I was suprised and remained silent. The party after some resistance was surrounded and taken captive and forced to drink some type of potions.
 
I left my position and made my way to the back door of the building hoping to escape into the woods. Peeking around the door i could see goblins in the forest and areas all around. Seeing no way to escape i found some loose floor boards and climbed underneath. A few minutes later i could hear foot steps and goblin being spoken. They were discussing how to search and one went upstairs. the other began flipping everything and banging on the floor boards. With no way out they eventually found me and as they removed the board i thrust my longsword at them missing with my thrust while laying on my back. One struck me hard and I knew fighting would be futile. The captured me and tried to make me quaff a potion which tasted awful but didn't seem to do much. they tied me up and said something about me being awake to see what happened.
 
After being led along with my party mates through the forest we were brought to a village. and laid before a large alter. Shortly after the goblins began to chat " Feed the Gub","Feed the Gub" seconds later a elder approached with a small green baby walking infront of us to a tent at the alter and as the crowd reached a crescendo of chanting hurled the baby into the taint where a loud cry and the sound of breaking bones could be heard. Suddenly all was silent and the goblin horde started allow and building chant.
 
shamans began to approach us and it appeared as if we were next to be rations for the Gub. As i looked at kharos a arrow flew through he air landing solidly in the precessional leader. I could her the voices of evils of some sort and common mixed in. "Get your things and run!"
 
Escaping into the woods with battle to all sides we were lead to a safe spot on the way to the village of the elves. Out of the trees dropped ladders from above that allowed us to climb up to platform in the sky. After a short rest, Cousin began to interrogate a captured goblin. After some cajoling and a lost finger the goblin reveled that Grub was known as the Mother of Spiders.
 
Eventually we made our way to their village and we spent time convalesencing and shared what we saw in lumberfell.
