Little problems behind

Scurrying back across the pit room, Velinsk is dragged back through the door by his fellow kitchen slaves.
“What did you see?” snaps one of his fellows.
Wide eyed, Velinsk responds…
“They’re all dead. Scores of them! Frick was able to tell me that it was a mixed band of adventurers. They came up through the washrooms and slaughtered everyone. In his dying breath though, he mentioned that one of them was a Dragon-born.”
Several of the Kobolds spit on the floor in disgust.
“They think they’re so much better than us. Bigger doesn’t mean better.”
The one that had asked the original question though, looks slyly down the corridor.
“Did you say they came up through the, corroded shut, down pipe?”

  1. Darn, they did not see the gnome. Same size as kobolds, but more awesome, and much more deadly. I probably killed most of them, and I was hoping gnomen women would sing songs about me in the future.

    Cause' I'm a picker
    I'm a grinner
    I'm a lover
    And I'm a sinner
    playin' my music in the sun
    I'm a joker
    I'm a smoker
    I'm a mid-night toker
    I get my lovin' on the run
    Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

  2. Actually Gnomes and Kobolds have a racial antipathy that goes back millennia.
    The Kobolds expected violence from Lucas.
    They were possibly hoping for some assistance from their Dragon-born cousin.
