==Transcript==
===Introduction===
The sound of high-pitched, snickering, and unmistakably malevolent laughter echoes down the passage.
"Someone's having fun," Hugh murmurs.
"It sounds like the kind of 'fun' we should put a stop to," Tessa whispers.
Your creep onward, scanning the ground for traps. But the way is clear. The merrymakers and their source of macabre amusement come in sight soon enough, daubed in a sickly green glow from the lichen that festers on the walls.
Two human corpses, one male, one female, lie on the ground. Both are bald... No, not just bald... The white which shows at the crowns of their heads isn't skin. It's bone, lightly daubed with crimson.
Above the bodies stands a pack of laughing, jostling goblins. Some have hair upon their heads, an incredulous sight given that goblins are bald by nature. Until you perceive the leather straps and shining glue which fastens it there.
Those who bear the standard unadorned skulls of goblinkind appear to be fighting over their victims' scalps. One of the diabolical creatures snatches a mane of long black tresses from a rival, and starts to arrange it on her head with one hand whilst fending him off with the other -- all the while chittering and babbling in her unintelligible tongue.
You're going to enjoy killing these ones...
===Conclusion===
"What are humans doing down here anyway?" Hugh asks. "I mean, yeah -- we're here. But it's not exactly the place for casual visitors."
"Alchemists or apothecaries," Rakshara replies.
She nudges a knapsack with her foot, causing little pieces of crystal and lichen to tumble out.
"We sometimes receive such visitors in my clan's territory, and aid them as best we can. These ones came across less generous hosts."
"I see five fresh scalps," you say, your gaze roaming over the corpses and their grisly accessories, "but only two victims."
"I suspect they suffered the most -- scalped alive then thrown to the goblins' monstrous god."
