Kabel throws a gold coin at the middle goblin; as it lands in front of him, he asks him to switch sides. The goblin is confused for a bit, but says to his sons, the other two goblins, that they should just attack us. Kabel then catapults the coin into the goblin and hits him in the jaw.
The goblin throws the gold coin back at Kabel then hits him with the morningstar. Kabel defeats the main goblin, and negotiates the end of combat. The Goblin tells them about the Punch Bunch, a group who run parts of the Under-Wilds. The goblin, Brul, offers to guide the party the the Punch Bunch headquarters, and they accept.
They begin a week long journey through the grasslands. The goblin offers some supplies, such as a scroll and an obsidian gemstone.

A human guard greets them at the door. Kabel gains favor with the guard Dmitri and gets them access to the pub inside, and they get free ale from Silvia, the barkeep.
Artair suddenly becomes very nervous, but won’t disclose why. A woman, Mina - Clan of Power approaches him and asks, “Trying to find your hunt, little druid?” She invites them to drink with her and the other caped members. She seems suspicious of Brul.
