Subject: The goblin riders (Tukatula, Aldrai, Baraka and Al'Thaes)

Horse murderers team

As the group look from a distance at the three goblins preparing to mount up and leave, three more goblins join the three present already. The three new arrivals are already mounted and one is wearing a strange, brown garment with a wide hood with strange looking symbols painted on it. This goblin looks slightly different from the others and the five other goblins seem to only briefly consult him and appear reluctant to stay too close to him. Despite this, they do not seem disrespectful towards their strangely dressed companion, but rather intimidated by his presence.
The hooded goblin raises a hand and speaks a few words to the goblin closest to him. He in turn signals the others, who mount up. They look at the hooded man, appearantly awaiting his signal.
A moment later, he waves the group forward and the wolf riders rapidly begin to vacate the scene.
"They're leaving!" Enoya hisses between her teeth, "Are you people going to do something, or what?!"
As she speaks those words, the back of the last wolf rider can be seen disappearing behind a distant tree.
"Great, just great!" Enoya grumbles, getting up from her crouched poise, "They got away. I hope you guys are happy now?!"
Krinin, who finally manages to pry his attention from Aldrai to the situation at hand, coughs in emberassment and sheepishly looks up at Enoya but can't find anything useful to say.
The group look at eachother in silence for a few moments, not quite knowing what to say.
"Well, I think we'd best head off in that direction as w-" Sythion begins to speak, but falls silent as he hears faint screams coming from the direction the goblin riders just disappeared to.
"What's that?" he asks the others, "I heard screams!"
"Well, let's go and find out then, shall we?!" Enoya yells and dashes off in the direction of the ruckuss.


Al'thaes

As Al'thaes laughs at the suspiscious questions of the two strangers, they both cringe and sit back uncomfortably.
"Please..." Ophan says softly, but a lot more polite suddenly, "don't laugh like that, it gives me the shivers."
His companion nods in silence, appearantly feeling as Ophan does.
Al'Thaes begins to respond to the men's remarks but suddenly stops and sits up straight to listen.
"What's that?" he asks, mostly to himself.
"What's what?" Ophan asks, "I don't..."
Al'Thaes gets to his feet and stares at the bushes surrounding the clearing alongside the road.
"Someone is coming." he says plainly, reaching for his impressive weapons.
Several seconds later, a group of six goblin riders bursts through the bushwork, mounted on wolves.
The two men with Al'Thaes yell in surprise and jump to their feet, reaching for their weapons.
The goblins are dressed as forest dwellers, but one of them is dressed differently, wearing a brown hooded cape and similarly coloured attire. He looks at the three men and makes a dismissive gesture with one hand.
"Out of the way scum. We have no business with you."
