tl;dr[edit | edit source]

Rags is threatened by Relc. She begins arming her tribe with crossbows and battle tactics. Her tribe encounters Toren and a hostile set of enchanted armor.

Rags leads a successful ambush on a Rock Crab. Of her tribe of around sixty Goblins, fifteen die... numbers that can be replenished within short time. She orders her tribe to carry all of the remains to the former bear cave that the Goblins currently occupy.

Then, Rags and her posse intend to visit Erin's Inn, but see that it's destroyed. They witness the Antinium felling Krakk trees (called Boom Trees by the Goblins). Relc snatches Rags after he realized they are observing them, but he doesn't do anything to her besides hurling her away. Ceria however gives Rags a warning to leave the area around Liscor because she knows that guard patrols will increase.

Rags contemplates about that advice: Her tribe is much smaller than three other major tribes in the vicinity, but she is the Chieftain of hers and is expected to take decisive action. Rags has her first Memory flash, and decides to collect the Krakk bark and bring that to the Goblin den. She also assesses the weapons her goblins have, and realizes that they are insufficient.

The Goblins then figure out Cervial's crossbow that Rags salvaged from the dungeon, and realize how to repair it and how to create similar (albeit much weaker) copies that are more slings on a stock that can shoot stone pebbles. Besides the black dwarven crossbow, her tribe creates at first six slingshot crossbows. Several Goblins, including Rags, become [Tinkerers].

Armed like that, Rags decides to confront a certain hole where previous goblin generations died. They encounter Toren as he flees from an enchanted armor.
