Sirius dropped to the ground, dragging the goblin with him still covering its mouth. "Yeah, it seems the humans in some kind of working relationship with this goblin." The young elf tossed the creature to the floor, quickly grabbing his bow and pulling back an arrow aimed at their new prisoner. "Start talking, why would a human and a goblin be ambushing a trail in elf territory? As I know it, your races are raging war against each other and not to mention neither race is in good standing with the elves. So this situation makes little sense to me."
The goblin chuckled and started talking in the goblin language. Sirius quickly interrupted it by releasing his arrow into the creatures leg, causing it to howl in pain. "Speak in common or the next on goes through your heart." The boy spoke sharply pulling back another arrow.
"We were hired! We were hired!" The goblin shouted repeatedly.
"By who?!"
"We never saw his face, we don't know!"
Sirius huffed, lowering his bow and looking over at Seline, "What do you make of the story?"
