Follow the Goblin

## Event 1

*You spy a goblin, half hidden in a copse of trees, counting the gold weighing down his sack. Startled by your presence, he beats a hasty retreat through a magical portal.*

1) Follow the goblin.

*You tell [your Companion] to stay behind before pursuing the goblin through the portal.*
**The player enters a Maze of Traps.**
*You exit through the glowing door to find yourself in more or less the same place as before.*
*[Hubie waves at you from a few steps away.]*
*The crunching of leaves underfoot betrays the goblin running further into the forest!"*
**The token transfers to a new Follow the Goblin card, which is then placed on the map.** (see Event 2)
*If you follow him, he may lead you to the goblin treasure hoards of legend!*
2) Continue on your journey.

## Event 2

*The goblin turns to see you still in pursuit. He shouts in exasperation, "Leave me be, meddling human!"*

*The mournful blare of his horn echoes through the forest. Another portal yawns before you, the goblin nowhere in sight.*

1) Jump into the portal.

**The player enters a Maze of Traps.**
*You find yourself face down in a pile of leaves, but shaken awake by [your Companion]. Slightly dazed, you hear the jangle of coins in the distance.*
**The token transfers to a new Follow the Goblin card, which is then placed on the map.** (see Event 3)
2) Stop following the goblin.

## Event 3

*You catch up to the goblin just as he leaps into another portal!*

*His face contorts into a look of irritated disbelief as your eyes meet.*

1) Follow the goblin.

**The player enters a Maze of Traps.**
*The portal deposits you directly in the path of an oblivious [companion], bowling him over.*
*As you pick yourself off the ground, you spy the elusive goblin escaping over a hill.*
**The token transfers to a new Follow the Goblin card, which is then placed on the map.** (see Event 4)
2) Stop following the goblin.

## Event 4

*Panting, the goblin blows his horn - producing a weak wheeze. "Curse you... leave me be..." Wearily, he hefts his gold sack into the portal before tumbling after.*

1) Follow the goblin.

**The player enters a Maze of Traps.**
*When you emerge from the portal, you find yourself in a luxurious sitting room. Green lanterns cast uneasy shadows on the walls. Lying exhausted on a woven rug in the centre of the room is the goblin.*
*He sighs at your appearance. "My, aren't you persistent. I'd offer you some murk tea if you hadn't pursued me relentlessly and barged unwelcome into my home."*
**The player gains 8 Fame.**
A) Demand gold.
*He tips the sack of gold toward you. The goblin's face crinkles sadly. "Take it."*
**The player draws 4 Gold Gain Cards.**
*As you grab hold of the sack, he blows his horn, opening a portal at your feet.*
*"Next time you want to reach Goblin Town, consider using a more conventional entrance." He gives a half-hearted wave.*
**The player gains this card's token.**
*The goblin's sitting room fades from view and you find yourself back in the forest.*
B) Ask where you are.
*His face cracks into a mischievous grin. "You are in Goblin Town, human. Where the sky is made of stone and the roast lizard is the best in the Empire."*
*He gestures at the window and your jaw drops. The sky is indeed made of stone - the city waiting beyond has been carved into a vast cavern.*
*The street below is host to a market lit by the uneasy green lanterns. Goblins and hooded figures peruse the wares, giving wide berth to giant rodent-like beasts of burden. You swear you see a lone Empire soldier before she disappears into the crowd.*
2) Stop following the goblin.
