East Marches S01: E03 - The Goblin Tribes Report

Deciding to investigating the Goblin Tribes the group of Mercs decides on first approaching the BurnMuks, taking a ferry to the island where the BurnMuks had been seen last. Rather quickly they stumble on an arguing set of goblins from the tribe and making positive in roads they head off to meet the Goblin chief, Firemud, who offers them to join with Kingdom of Nematu if the Mercs agree to recover an artifact for him.   The Mercs head off to the next island to the north, given a goblin escort and advance on a village. Arriving at the village they find it infested with insects which attack them once they pass the perimeter of the village. As they deal with insects they are attacked by a Gnome druid who seemed to have an odd connection with the insects, Nameless BAA manages to capture and tie him up, interrogating him and stealing his horn which seemed to have power over the insects. As they explore Metgro uses the horn, triggering the curse which drains him of color, and freeing the druid, who wildshapes and promptly escapes. As the Mercs continue to explore they discover an obelisk down a well which seems to have a connection to insects and strong connection to conjuration magic.   The Mercs are left trying to decide how to proceed with turning over the horn and obelisk to either the BurnMuks or Iron Marines of Nematu.
