Some in the group ended up doubting the legitimacy of Garen's order, and weren't particularly keen in following it. After six days of roaming the landscape and looking for the [Innkeeper] girl, they had a debate and decided as a group that following Garen's orders without Rags' knowledge or permission was wrong. They decided to go back to their new [[Flooded Waters Tribe|tribe]] and tell Rags what Garen had told them to do. Not knowing where their tribe was, they turned towards Liscor but encountered one of the [[Reiss|Goblin Lord's]] War Bands. They turned and fled to a partially destroyed [[Esthelm|Human City]] with the intent to lose their pursuers.<ref name="3.17T" /> | Some in the group ended up doubting the legitimacy of Garen's order, and weren't particularly keen in following it.

In Esthelm, they encountered an environment like they hadn't seen before: | In Esthelm, they encountered an environment like they hadn't seen before: Instead of a united [[Humans|Human]] force, the survivors of Rags' siege were splintered into infighting scavenger groups that behaved more or less like Goblins. The ruins proved ideal for the Redfang Warriors to find shelter and food, as they had no qualms about eating dead bodies. They ignored most of the Humans who didn't attack them. [[Grunter]], their leader, intended to survive in Esthelm until it was safe to leave the place. In the meantime they would loot valuable equipment and food and also ambush the Goblin Lord's Vanguard Army when they came for the city. Before setting up their camp however, the Warrior group observed a [[Florist|strange girl]] who was clearly different from the other humans, as she ate raw human bodies. They rescued her when she was attacked by a [[Toren|skeleton]] with a sword, because [[Headscratcher]] supposed that the girl might be the Innkeeper they'd been tasked with killing.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/09/28/3-18-t/ Chapter 3.18 T]</ref> | ||

In this situation, she decided to follow the "monsters" who rescued her, and the Redfang Warriors allowed her into their camp, feeding her their cooked, meaty soup and proving to her that they were actually somewhat civilized. They had organized guards, a cooking camp, bedrolls, and (albeit rough) table manners - all of which the monster girl had lost. Even so, communication was possible and they all found some basic understanding.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/09/30/3-19-t/ Chapter 3.19 T]</ref> | ||
While the Redfang Goblins were somewhat bewildered by that weird Human girl, they even let her follow them around the next day, and she regained some of her mental faculties. The group encountered the Goblin Lord's Army goblins, as well as Toren again, and also the Gold-Rank adventurer [[Ylawes Byres]] who easily bested them and grievously wounded Grunter. The [Florist] saved his life by distracting Ylawes, and then helped the goblins with her medical knowledge: splinting Grunter's arm and removing the bad parasite infestations from [[Headscratcher]] and [[Bugear]]. | While the Redfang Goblins were somewhat bewildered by that weird Human girl, they even let her follow them around the next day, and she regained some of her mental faculties.

When the [[Army of the Goblin Lord|Goblin Lord's Army]] started to storm the (by now organized) palisades of Esthelm, the [Florist] pleaded with them and led them into a battle against the overwhelming goblin and undead forces. In this battle, the Florist was shot down by a Human arrow and later stabbed to death by Toren. Enraged | When the [[Army of the Goblin Lord|Goblin Lord's Army]] started to storm the (by now organized) palisades of Esthelm, the [Florist] pleaded with them and led them into a battle against the overwhelming goblin and undead forces. In this battle, the Florist was shot down by a Human arrow and later stabbed to death by Toren. Enraged. the Redfang Elite Warriors selectively took down the Goblin [Commander], the two remaining Goblin [Shamans], and finally Toren, thus unraveling the goblin siege of Esthelm by taking out all leadership. They took heavy casualties doing this, though. Of the thirteen goblins at the start, only six survived the battle. Ylawes Byres recognized their efforts and let them go free after they had grieved together for the Florist girl.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/10/03/3-20-t/ Chapter 3.20 T]</ref> | ||
