Zaila looked at Beelzenef. "I'm fine...I just can't stand the smell of mushrooms." She replied.

Zaila smiled faintly, as she placed her fork across her plate.

"I'm fine." Zaila replied. "I just didn't sleep well....strange bed."

Zaila looked at Beelzenef. "It's a large estate, with private gardens, way too many rooms, and servants everywhere."

Slightly startled with how soon her father arrived, she nodded her head once.

Zaila looked at Beelzenef. "You're carrying me...my father won't attack...though I don't think he'd be happy about my broken ankle."
"Zaila!" Zaila's father shouted upon seeing his only daughter. "What's going on?"
Zaila looked at her father with no expression on her face. "Tell the guards to stand down." She stated flatly. "We'll settle this with words not weapons."

Lord Song looked at Beelzenef. "Yes, I've gathered that." He replied sternly.
"Father." Zaila spoke in a firm tone.
Lord Song looked at Zaila, then sighed heavily. "Fine." He said after a moment. "Speak your terms. I'm sure there is some kind of arrangement we can come to."

[color=#ff3333]"Goblin home grow old and broken. Not healthy for some, even goblin runts. Beelzenef want move goblins for little while so we build new goblin home under mountain. Also goblins want peace with humans. Not want worry fighting cause humans. Humans call goblins monsters, we not monsters. Last day we try buy cloth from sell person. We show bag of gold, but they welcome goblins with big axes. We not want fight men, we want live here in mountain. Last night we find shiny silver rocks before sleep." Beelzenef said and he nodded for a small goblin to bring over the silver ore and hold it up

Lord Song looked at the silver ore, then back at Beelzenef. "So you want to build a new home under this mountain?" He asked.

Lord Song folded his arms in thought. After several minutes he looked directly at Beelzenef. "I see no reason why I cannot grant you what you ask." He said, then looked at Zaila. "As Lord of this hold, I will make sure that you and your kin have safe passage throughout my hold. But I must warn you, I cannot grant protection outside of my hold." As he spoke he looked at Beelzenef. "Additionally, I will post a small detachment of guards to ensure your protection...these guards will be hand picked by my daughter, and she will also suggest merchants you can trade with."

"Beelzenef and goblin kin thank you Lord Song. Goblins work hard, be done quick." Beelzenef giving a bow

Lord Song smiled faintly, as he motioned for one of his guards to get Zaila. "You may move about my hold freely. But keep in mind, it will be a few days for my orders to cross my hold with my decree."

As morning came the Legacy was half the distance to the port of Aiamson. The crew was running around the deck and below prepareing the ship for the harbor. As captain Liaam walked out of his quarters he looked at his compass and corrected the ships course slightly. He looked around as if he was expecting to see someone that was supposed to be there as well, but could not find him.
I was told that there was to be a Ashforth representative aboard with us for this trip. I wonder If they've gotten lost below us somehow...maybe I should send a few to look just in case.
He looked at the sailior that was close by and yelled out his orders.

"Artimes! gather some men an' see If you can find any lost passangers below us. Or stowaways for that matter. We'll be arriving in port soon. report back after and get the cargo ready."

"aye captin!" and with that he gathered some men.

Sean heard Artimes as he gathered his men. he smiled as he followed the footsteps.
my master has taught me well.
He swiftly moved into another compartment on the other end of the ship as he heard the small party come down, making sure that his dark hood and mask was covering him enough for him to blend into the shadows of the room.
But lets see how long I can hide myself, as well as to how good this crew is.

Peter decided to move on, he went back to his cart and started pulling it again. He knew of a village not far from here that he could probably sell the bears fur at and maybe sell the meat to a butcher " to Sionamere I guess" he said in a low tone.

Zaila nodded her head, as the guard picked her up. "You're welcome." She said to Beelzenef.
