Chapter #3Pet to a Goblin Rouge... by: TinyBoi12 "Buddy!" Toft said as she reached down for you with a big grin on her face. Your first instinct was to run but you aren't getting away from a Master Thief that easy, Toft snatched you up so quickly she probably didn't even notice you moving.
You felt a lump in your throat, goblins were commonly perceived as just barely above monsters. Most were bandits, and terrible ones at that, not even really a threat to even new adventurers. But then, you have the ones that were more cunning, thieves and conmen. The biggest contribution to their poor reputation was the various clans banded together, creating the Kingdom of Goblins, led by a brutal Hobgoblin warlord, whose name was stricken from the annals of history. They had plagued the borders of the biggest Human country nearly 4 centuries ago, leading horrifying raids on outlying human settlements, killing, pillaging, and kidnapping.
