Nevesis

## Background

All that is known of the little goblin known as Nevesis or "ol' Nevy" as he's nicknamed is from crumbled notes found deep underground in the various camps and outposts he stayed in.

### Crumbled notes on Ol' Nevy

*" and there he goes again, off for another haul. I swear to Cavi he's trying to get to the below, as if it's just around the next ravine. Calsus doesn't mind it though, he says the more he digs the richer we all get, but it's got to take its toll on the man, right? I mean he's almost 60 now, thats about 50 years of digging, and for what? gems and ingots? Either he's more greedy than me and Calsus or he couldn't care less about the plunders from the deep. "*

*" 5 days now, it's been 5 days since that damn water cavern flooded the shaft. If it just took out a few chests we'd be ok, but it had to take the glowberries. Nevy had some mushrooms to spare but even those are running out. Tekdrin doesn't look so good, I think she's scared. I mean we all are but she's not hiding it. Nevy has been digging for another cavern, I've been praying to Cavi that he finds one. If he doesnt... well let's hope he does "*

" *she's gone, dammit she's gone, at least it was peaceful. If I knew Tekdrin was going to die I would of given her my berries, by Cavi I'd give anything to see her right now. If I found another pool of water in my lifetime, it'd be too soon, that's if I dont die in here too. Cavi wont let me, please don't let me die great one im not even 20 yet, but then neither was Tekdrin. "*

*" Found it at last, more glow berries on the ceiling than I could eat if I tried, but no one left to share with. Tekdrin... Calsus... I wish this got easier, it never does. why do I always get out? How is it that Cavi has spared me when Calsus was praying for days for a cavern. Tekdrin offered all our gold as offerings and look what she got for it, our faith is tough in times like these. The tunnels here go on for a bit, maybe i'll find another goblin camp, maybe they'll fair better. "*

*" after some wandering through the tunnels I came across a couple no older than 20 with a youngling, I couldn't even look at them. 2 dead friends and I got out, the thought of that fate befalling on this happy family.. I have to travel alone for a while "*

*" 2 years alone in this region of caverns and we finally meet another green skin, not many of us green skins left. Drevold and I were so happy, even little Okei's eyes lit up at the sight of another, but then he left. Why was he leaving we I said, Drevold said he seemed a little distraught. What had he endured to make him so upset at the sight of his own kind that he'd run at first sight? Whatever it be, he shouldn't have to face it alone. We're gonna find that old man and help him, like it or not. "*

*" finally found that old coot, curled up on a stalagmite sobbing, he needed a friend. After some convincing we got him to open up, I understand now. I had Nelsi take Okei on a walk as to not crowed him and explain that it's ok to remember the past but not to be stuck on it. 'Cavi saved you because you kept going, your friends died because they stopped and panicked' He understood but i couldn't get him to smile no matter what I said, there's time yet. "*

*" I guess I should make one of these myself huh, Better late than never I suppose. Consider this my first and last journal seeing as this stalagtite is wedged through my side. I'm not afraid though, if anything a little at peace. I've lived a long life, think I'm at 87 now, by Cavi I didn't think I'd get this far. I've left my legacy, my bounties of the deep, hidden where no one would find it. A friend will hold onto it, a friend I didn't tell anyone I had; often even myself methinks. I go now to my beloved godess, I've served my duties, played my part, its up to the next generations of goblins to uphold what I toiled for. Things are getting dark, I can't see my torch, can't feel my, well anything. Goodbye world, remember me "*
