"YOU are the hero" : The Fate of Faraway 519

You erge into what seems to be an old guardroom… or perhaps a waiting room. In any case, for now, it’s a guardroom.

Upon your arrival, several Goblins startle and reach for their weapons. Apparently, they didn’t expect you to have made it past the other defenses. Growling and baring their teeth, they form a defensive periter to block your progress…

Actually, no: these aren’t Goblins, but Goblinesses. To your surprise, you realize that these guards are exclusively female. Knowing by reputation the brutality of power struggles within Goblin groups, you guess that such an organization could only have been established by the Dragon… But for what reason? You have no idea.

For so unknown reason, the Goblinesses remain in place, defensive. Normally, creatures this stupid would have already charged or fled… They must have orders they dare not disobey…

If you want to get past, you’ll have to do so by force.

Their number is 2d6 if they are not alerted, and 3d6 if they are alerted.
