Death of the Sticky Lord (Date 1/11/1)

Unwilling to let the leaders of the goblin attack escape, Euwyn had Ilyana track them to their home. There the party found the village all but deserted with just a few young goblins scavenging among the remains for food. Shelby claimed to be able “sense the evil” in even these young ones, but Prince Euwyn stayed her hand. While the party searched for clues, a familiar voice called from the edge of the village. It was Longlegs, the former chief of the village with whom they had struck the previous peace accord. His legs were shattered and he walked on crutches. Marty healed him much to the goblin’s amazement, and Longlegs vowed to gather the young ones together and lead them to safety, while the party tracked the war band toward the city. Shelby was surprised that she could NOT sense evil in Longlegs.

A day’s march toward the city found a sizeable force of goblins under the command of the Sticky Lord and the Frog-Talker Witch, but with Ilyana’s powerful woodland magic the force was easily divided and taken down. The leaders tried to flee when the battle turned against them. Marty chased down the Sticky Lord, but Frog-Talker Witch turned to mud and escaped into the ground.
