Hobnob and his crew emerged from the bushes as The Lord asked if they were adventurers. The gnome who had been his in the leg with an arrow was hobbling along next to Hobnob and using him as a crutch. "Take Pint-sized Pat back to the camp and have Dr Diminutive patch him up" Hobnob whispered to Titch as 1 of the gnomes' companions answered The Lord's question.
"Sure thing, Boss" Titch replied as he took Pint-Sized Pat off Hobnob's hands and walked him back to the camp.

Hobnob then turned to 2 of the 4 remaining members of his crew Smaller Benjamin and Smallest Benjamin. "Our work here is done" Hobnob whispered "Go pack up the traps and get them back to the camp. You can disarm the traps using the secret phrase: 'Stop being so deadly'. Understand?".
The 2 gnomes nodded before walking off to recover the traps. Hobnob and the 2 remaining members of his crew (Small Benjamin and Big-As-A-Dwarf Barry) then turned to look at what was happening with the others.
