After a couple of hours of walking, Arianna and Arran struggling uselessly every step of the way, the goblins finally reached their destination. It was a ramshackle village full of decrepit wooden huts and animal hide tents, and full of goblins, orcs, trolls, elves, and various other non-human races.
