"I guess where she is from, the steeling from your friends is okay," she mumbled under her breath. Not that Eli really cared about the wagon. But in that simple action, she realized that she and Gar were more alike than they first imagined.

"While I hope she is successful, we have larger concerns," she said turning to Arwen. She raised her voice so that all the party members could hear her. Farrali, Dimple, Kaleb" she yelled getting their attention. She waited till she had everyone around to speak.

She turned to Arwen's mother, "we don't have much time. You and your people need to select a leader. Also we need every horse and wagon from the foundry. Only the wounded and weak. All other able bodies walk. Plus, we need to know of anyone that has some kind of weapon training." She realized it was a long shot but they needed to know where they stood.

She turned to the party, "Gar has chosen to abandon you because we choose," she paused and let out a deep sigh of sadness. "I choose, to free these slaves. She has turned her back on them and all of you. Instead of remaining with us, she has took off with her two Hobgoblin friends and is currently seeking her original plan. We don't have much time," she said with a hint of urgency. "Kaleb, you have the map of the realms. We need the fastest route to a large river. Here is my plan. We will send for Arwen's ship via my familiar. We will explain what is going on and ask them to notify neighboring Kingdoms for help. At the same time, we march for the coast. Its a six day march from here. I know that this plan would be hard on our new charges but if we force march this, we can get there and to safety. Once our charges are safe, then we worry about the crown."

She drew in a deep breath, "I had hoped that Gar would see this as an opportunity to help muster this band in to a raiding force that could free more slaves as we lured the King from the Capital. Unfortunately for us, Gar has taken to heading to the Capital. Her foolishness has now placed all of them in even greater danger. The King has the Crown. With it, he will know all that she knows. Which means that he will know our first plan."

She looked down in sadness, "look I know its not great, but its the best I got. Does anyone have any comments, ideas, or concerns?"]]>

The half-orc glanced sideways at Salhtie, trying to get a read on him, though she knew she was never any good at it. She could only judge people by their actions and deductive reasoning. Traveling into the hobgoblin capital with the two of them was going to be a very dangerous gamble. 

After hours of travel Gar finally saw the city in the distance. Soon they were riding their horses up to the main gate.]]>

Elironda knew that Gar would be upset. She knew that this could be a very touchy situation. She knew that she had lied to Gar. She knew that this completely changed everything Gar was planning for. Elironda simply didn’t care. They were elves, They were her people. Unlike Gar, she was unwilling to 'sacrifice them for some assumed greater good'. They were being enslaved by a barbaric group of monsters. Eli was many things, but she was no traitor to her people. She couldn’t, she wouldn’t have condemned them to one more day as slaves. Arwen’s mother was just the accuse she needed to gain the support of the others, and she took it. Eli had hoped that Gar would have turned her opinion around, but she didn’t. When Eli saw Gar lounging at the campsite with the very monsters that had enslaved these beings, it angered her. She had no expectations of gaining help from the Half-Orc, but she had expected Gar to help Arwen liberate Arwen’s own mother. No, Elironda couldn't have cared less about any plans. She did the right thing.
 
Confident in her choice, still Eli was cautious as she landed. She made sure to keep a safe distance from Gar. She didn’t know what to expect from the hothead. But beyond that, Eli couldn’t hide the shit eating grin either, “There were nineteen hobgoblins. Eighteen have joined their maker. There was nothing we could do to stop one from escaping,” She explained truthfully. “You will be happy to know, that mother and daughter have been reunited,” she said motioning towards Arwen and her mother as they walked up.]]>

She pointed to trees, “the wagons have to move at a slower pace due to their load and maintaining spacing. There should be no reason why we can't keep up while moving off the road.” She smiled as she continued to speak in elvish and nodded, “anyway, I want to speak with you…” she glanced at the rest of the party, “alone.”]]>

A portly female dwarf answered, squeaked in surprise, and almost slammed the door back in Gar's face. "Oh! Sorry, dearie--uh, Miss--uh, I apologize," the rosie-cheeked lass stuttered, covering with a nervous laugh, "I hardly recognized ya under all that mud! Come, come--" she yelled over her shoulder, "Borris!! She brought another one!!"

Gar grunted indifferently, "Morning, Mary."

A couple of stocky male dwarves greeted Gar at the door and relieved her of her dead prize, carrying it to the back entrance of the Inn. Mary ushered the half-orc inside and showed her to a table in the corner. It was a cozy inn with simple, round wooden tables and chairs with colorful cushions tied to the seats. Little knick-knacks and novelties decorated the walls and ceiling. 

"Shall I draw a bath for ya, Miss?" asked Mary shyly, dabbing her forehead with her apron, seeming a bit flustered still.

"Won't be necessary," answered Gar gruffly, "Just the usual."

Mary hesitated, a little disconcerted that her guest was refusing to bathe, but she bit her tongue and nodded. "Of course, I'll skip to it!" she said heartily, departing into the kitchen through a pair of swinging doors with flowers carved into the wood.]]>

Along the docks, many fishing ships were moored. High above, the clouds of the coming storm cast their long reach over this great norther city. Even before the full force of the rain had come, the first hint of rain had already started to fall. The early morning rains were common for this time of year, the rains were a welcomed sight to the fishermen who were just waking up. The rains meant that the Gods would grant them a plentiful catch today.


Elironda smiled as the long boat came up to the dock. The long boat was filled with paintings, a man child and other items. “Arwen?" Elironda said with a hint of surprise in her voice. She half expected to see the rest of the party showing up to try to teach her about being good. "Like a good second-rate thief. You showed up when all the real work was done.” ]]> It was a calm moonless night over the harbor. Along the docks, many fishing ships were moored.
