*Molloc is caught by surprise, but he quickly draws his sword. He looks up and down the ranger, then burst out in a deep, mocking laugh*
Oh look, a pixie and his lapdog are making demands of me. Oh how I tremble with non-existent fear.
*Spots the ears and points at them* That's an elvish feature... but the rest of you looks more human... a vile half-breed?
My business is quite my own, and just because your dog growls, or you can hold a bow without dropping it does not change this fact.
Now, would you mind getting out of my way?

Yes, yes i would mind. You see i will not tolerate that kind of attitude in my forest. I protect this forest and the travellers from evil and wrongdoers.
You refuse to tell me why you are here. Instead spewing insults which fail to impress me one itty bit.
I have no desire to fight you, but i do not fear you. I urge you to turn around and never to return. Do not disturb this peaceful forest with your Evil presence.Oh, don't leave him as a lost soul Kaiser Quick! Show him your "creature"!!
..Or don't. In fact, definately don't.Now that is one worthy Lord Terrible! I'll get worshipping! NOT *strangles Lord T*(ignore this:P)

And I do not fear you. You who would jump out and attack me even if unprovoked.
Retreat is impossible. My work is neccessary to save the creatures from the hunters and beasts that follow me. I cannot turn my back on the slaughter they will cause. They will murder those that live here.
I do not have time to talk, they already gain on me. Stand aside, or I will have to force you.

You are on a mission to prevent slaughter and murder of those in need?
Why didn't you tell me so immidietly? I shall walk with you. Please, tell me more! It sounds like you could use help.
*Thamior lowers his bow and steps aside*
You know insulting people is never the best way to get your way and get people to respect what you are doing. You should consider a new attitude.

No, there may be something much more important you can do.
Behind me approaches people who come to slaughter the creatures of these woods. They will be close now you have delayed me. I beg of you to delay them too, in anyway you can. I need more time.

Like I said, druid, what we do with our share of the reward is entirely up to us. If you can find a better way to split five cows between three people, then by all means, tell.
Heh, forgive me. I can see we're getting off on the wrong foot. I suppose we could sell the remaining cows to local farmers, and split the cash that way.
*Tuskar walks alongside the other two, still eyeing the golem suspiciously. He picks an apple out of his satchel and munches on it thoughtfully.*
<Thinks>A golem...they're quite rare, even in the company of magicians. He said "kind and gentle soul", even though most golems are soulless, much like the undead but with man-made purpose.
*Though reassured by Kroro's words, he can't help but wonder what forces drive this golem.*

That's a better idea! *Looks around...* I'm not certain... But unless we want to take a major detour, we should go south here, through the forest... *Solar cautiously goes into the forest...*
It could be a while until I post again...

Off to eat now, Kaiser has been informed of the goblin village since it seems he will get there first. Be back in an hour plus some. Play nice now

As the threesome wander through the forest, the elf is the only one that passes through without a sound. Both Kroro and Tuskar move like elephants through the forest and get reprimanded by Orodreth.
They move as silently as possible and feel like they are being watched. After a good while they arrive at a road again, having been freaked by the forest, Kroro bids the others to travel by road for a while.
"I feel very small and vulnerable in those woods, I would like the road to lighten me up for a while. I hope you don't mind my childish behaviour, I guess i'm used to wide open spaces."

I will not betray your trust. I am Molloc. Thank you... my friend. *He begins jogging away in an attempt to make up for lost time, as he goes, he calls back* Beware their lies and deceptions, they come to kill! Remember this!
*He then mumbles quietly to himself* Now... to find those damn goblins

Thamior plans to look impressive when the three guys arrive. He's climbes up a tree and has given Valior the stay command. He hears the 3 visitors coming a mile away. One of them seems particullary heavy(golem).
When the guys get close Thamior swings out of the tree, somersaulting through the air and landing on his feet in the middle of the road. He lays an arrow on his bow and tries to look threatening. He does not speak for two seconds as he tries not to scream. That landing nearly broke his ankels! Bad bad idea. Then he whistles and his wolf walks to him.
I... I am Thamior! I protect this forest from Evil and those who would do it harm! What are you doing here?!

Kroro, Orodreth and Tuskar both heave their weapons, a staff in Kroro's case though. He wonders why they would be detained and stops the others.
"Wait, don't attack yet, we don't need to fight him. We're travellers on our way to the goblin encampement to learn those goblins not to raid the caravans fro and to Satim. I swear to you that we have no ill or evil intentions whatsoever.
Tell us though, who are you to claim this piece of land? I've never heard it possible."

*Rolls with his eyes with Kroro's terrible explenation...* I should have known! Why did you have to follow the roads? *Sighs...* I could have guessed someone noticed us... After all, the sound you make is quite easy to hear, to say it lightly... *Looks at Thamior...* Hmm... A half-human... Or half-Elf, whichever you prefer... Well, I'm Orodreth, a young druid, who has lived near this place for a long time. I have even entered this forest when I was young, though I have never seen you then... These two other guys are just my blunderous companions, who could use some lessons about stealth... Anyhow, seeing as you have befriended with a wolf, I presume you're not Evil or anything... We are of to hunt goblins, a blight to this land, and stop their raids. Perhaps you can show us the shortest route? Oh, and could someone else have passed through recently? Cause I've been anxious since I arrived on this side of the river... Felt something Evil (or amoral;)) must have passed, since back there, all animals were silent... I am not evil! I'm amoral! There's a difference! ;D

No man owns the forest. I am merely it's guardien.
You're here to fight goblins eh? I find that hard to believe. For i have heard from a reliable source that your real purpose here is to slaughter the creatures of the forest.
I will not let this forest and it's creatures come to any Evil. Turn around now and never return. I have no desire to fight you, but i will do so to protect what i value.
