Kog inquires about the health of the town, and takes care of a number of minor injuries and illnesses. They are quite grateful, and the village as a whole gives you five barrels of salmon.

Everybody ready to leave?

Well maybe we could go around town breaking bones so Zergling will have more business.
YES, I'D LIKE TO LEAVE :D

I wanted to chop down some trees and alert the caravan escorts of the goblin raiders, but I guess I'm ready?

... I dunno, I didn't notice a trait called "Derp, derp, derp" anywhere in your profile.  At this point for your character "Unaware" ought to be replaced with "Bat-shit insane"  Seriously, releasing a locked-up god without even trying to ascertain it's state of mind etc.  In fact everything was pointing towards a terrible death.  You know, the thousands of dead beasts, the bowl that screams with a thousand tortured souls.  You know, in those circumstances, I would TOTALLY just immediately think about how to release whatever was locked up.  Totally, it would be the first thing I would do, if by first, I actually meant last.

Also yeah, I guess I'm good to go.

You didn't have enough time after being reprimanded to cut down a tree. You did warn the guards, however, and they looked more serious.

Hey, the beasts died of starvation. Even monsters need air food.

The caravan rolls out, leaving the squalid little village behind.

No need to beat a dead horse. Just leave it alone so we can reduce arguments, ok?

I said they were dead, doesn't mean a god can't reanimate them.  He is a god after all, supposedly.

Fine, I'll drop it, but I'm just pointing out the entire ridiculousness of those actions from a role-playing perspective.

I'll shave my beard with whatever sort of shaving implement is available to me.

Wait, I didn't roll for insanity.

Apparently you're still sane.

After more time travelling south, Litast realises that the patrol of humans never showed up. Not a good sign.

The coastal road peters out, and soon you're travelling over wild country. The land begins to become greener and colder, trees reappear, and soon you strike the river. Hmm, it needs a name actually. Now you turn south and follow its west bank until you hit the Cliffs of Iron.

Get to site, set up tent, get plow, begin plowing a field close to the waterfall so the mist will water the plants for me.  Enjoy some of my Brine ale and some salmon from the human town when I get hungry/thirsty.

Near the end of a day of travel, as the sun dipped below the horizon, Mikhail gave a yell and fired into the shadows. Everybody else with crossbows fired as well, shredding many plants to pieces.

After leaping from his watch spot, Mikhail dragged out a goblin pierced through the chest. It was dressed in filthy rags and had no weapon, evidently a scavenger of sorts. It seemed that it had been following the caravan for some time, hoping for a chance to steal some goods. It was fortunate that it was spotted and killed.

If the rags were cleaned, would they be salvagable?

Ew, no. They're probably full of goblin curses and stuff. They're already rotting away, he must have been trying to steal new clothes.

I'll shave my beard with whatever sort of shaving implement is available to me. I'll also give the goblin corpse to whoever wants it. Excluding Shem.
