A Disguised Goblin (closed)

[Ke'ntear]

Kent was riding down the street. He didn't have anywhere in particular he wanted to go, so he just let his horse lead. Eventually, he dismounted and approached a vendor. He bought an apple and began eating it.

Then he saw out of the corner of his eye, a hooded figure making his way through the crowd. Kent thought he recognized its posture as a goblin, but he thought he must be mistaking. So he mounted his stallion nad began to follow it.

[Ke'ntear]

Before long, Kent had to dismount because he might get seen. He followed what he thought was a Goblin on foot, leading his horse. Then the it disappeared down and alley. Kent tied his horse to a piece of wood and followed him.

He couldn't see the Goblin down the alley, so he moved quickly down it. On the other side he came out into a street. He looked around, and then saw his target walking down farther ahead. He ran after him, pushing his way through the crowd.

Kent jostled people out of the way as he ran. He couldn't let the suspected Goblin out of sight. He had to know if he was a Goblin. If he was, what was he doing in Minas Rithes? He finally was able to slow to a walk as he caught up to the Goblin.

He followed him further until suddenly the Goblin stopped and turned. His hood masked his features, but Kent could recognize his eyes. He was a Goblin. "Goblin slime!" Kent shouted and charged at him, drawing his sword. The Goblin turned and fled, holding his hood up. People scattered, allowing Kent to pass. He quickly gained on the Goblin, who had to weave his way through the crowd.

Suddenly the Goblin turned and ran up some stairs and the chase moved to the rooftops. Kent was slowed by the stairs, his armour weighing him down. The Goblin leapt from rooftop to rooftop. He was agile, and might escape Kent.

This thought angered him and with a burst of speed, he leapt across the rooftop after the Goblin. He held his sword out and landed on the Goblin as he began to run. They both fell to the ground, rolled and slid to a stop on top of eachother.

Kent's sword had passed right through the Goblin's body and the end was sticking out of its stomach. Kent got up and bent over the Goblin. His hood had fallen during the chase, and Kent could see his pointed ears and dirty face.

"Why are you in Minas Rithes? What brought you so close to your enemies?" Kent questioned. The Goblin looked up at Kent, blood trailing out of his mouth. "...I am spying." Kent grabbed the Goblin and lifted him up. "Spying on what??" Kent commanded angrily. "... forti... fortifica..." he coughed twice, blood oozing out of his mouth and down his chin. Then his head rolled back. Kent dropped the dead corpse back onto the roof.

He would have to report this to Alessandra immediatly. He made his way back to his horse and rode hard back to the Warrior Guild where he hoped to find her.
