The local job board said a half orc merchant called Morgoth was hiring adventurers to go help liberate more goblins from goblin or bigger oppressors since not every goblin wished to live a live of near slavery and constant beatings. Intrigued by this, various adventurers gathered to talk to Morgoth and then the goblins in the slums of Rook, seeing that they were pretty good carpenters and doing pretty well for themselves. Hearing of how most goblins lived in terrible conditions and, more importantly for most of them, how they'd get paid, the group decided to head out to the newly formed goblin encampment not too far out in to the wilderness surrounding Rook. About halfway there they stumbled across a pair of goblins and Aeran decided to go and chat to them. This prompted him to get jumped and battle was joined as more goblins appears out of the undergrowth! It was hard fought, but even with the appearance of reinforcements the party prevailed and decided to return to Rook with the goblins they'd captured so far. When they arrived it was explained that the point was to get the Goblins to come along willingly and, so armed with this knowledge, the group healed up and headed back out.
Circling round as a sentry had no doubt gotten away to inform the camp, the group came across a ramshackle tower that was likely used by long-sighted sentries to warm them of approaching hostiles. Deciding to stand there and chat about this, Aeran was surprised when an arrow came down out of the sky and slammed in to his leg. Quickly preparing, the group was peppered with shots from afar. Grim and Cain charged headlong in, only for Grim to get shot. Leaving Cain with no support, he ran back to the group. Predictably, Cain got utterly jumped and ripped apart by goblin dogs as no one was around to help him. Oscar and Kitiara, ever disparaging of how useless their 'comrades' were, started carefully making their way up avoiding arrow fire as best they could. Grim stayed back and kept Aeran company, only for the pair of them to be stabbed (repeatedly!) to death by a long goblin rogue who had been waiting for the group to split up.
With 3 of the 5 dead, Oscar and Kitiara continued as their professional pride was at stake. With just the pair of them they wiped out the goblin force, killed the Bugbear in charge, went to the settlement and freed all the goblins there, led them back to Rook and got paid - all the while knowing they were more professional and competent than those they had worked with.
