I am in shock from the combat, the javelin wound and the horror of the situation. Part of me sees a javelin protruding from my arm. Is that really there? This can't be real. Is that a baby? It's all too much for my senses. I run off away from the sight of the cooking child and begin vomiting. Tears run down my cheeks from sadness and the vomiting.

I've been in close combat before. I remember the feelings. Actually thinking I can hear my heart pounding in my ears, and remembering it's hearing the blood pouring through my arteries at an accelerated rate as my body works to deliver the surge is adrenaline. The feeling of 'I'm alive' that comes with victory. The weakness in the knees as the adrenaline surge ends.

I go towards the scene and it makes me gasp. I've seen a lot but never anything like this. Eating a child. I retch. Then I walk to the creature defiling the lake with its ichor. I drag it out. I use my water skin to put the fire out.

I go to Rachel and start to put my hand on her back and tell her this is okay but I hold back. I'd have done it for my buddies in the Army and have, but I knew them for longer. The Hell with it, "Rachel, let it out. You did good. We did good" I say as I hold her shoulder. "So, this world is as ugly in the extreme as it is beautiful. Should we build a bairn burn them or take them back to confirm identification?"

Then I realize neither Rachel nor Jason had ever been in anything like this. "Your reactions are normal. It's the effect of the adrenaline now that it's no longer surging through you. What did here was good."

Then I realize there may be more around. "Now, I need both of you to be alert. There may be more of these things. We don't want to fall into the trap we just pulled on them."

I shift up, coming out of the trees, and looking about to confirm the threat is dealt with.

"What's wrong guys? Why did you rush in like that, we could have, oh, oh god." I feel bile in my throat. Somehow, I end up behind a tree, emptying my stomach.

Focus, focus, this isn't over. Don't think about that smell, just focus. And breathe

Standing, I go back over to Dennis, "W-what… What can we do now?"

"Stay vigilant Jason, a group of five could be the recon element of a larger group. We should either burn these bodies and continue or go back and report. I recommend we go back. If this is a vanguard, we need the settlement and Douglas to know. I further recommend we bring one of these creatures back for positive identification. I'm not sure I trust my memory of the Monster Manual for a positive ID. We can burn the rest of em. This is a team decision though. What do you two think?"

Out of Character: is there a tall tree I can climb where I can take ten? I want to get up high and do a look round.

I stand up shakily. I wipe the tears from my eyes. " So horrible… " I walk off for a moment and get control of myself. Rejoining the others I answer. " Lets take one with us and report to Lord Douglass. We can't afford to engage a bigger group of them." I wince in pain as I look at the gash in my arm.

I see the gash for the time. "How could I have missed that?" I grab the cloth Jason gave me and apply it to Rachel's wound. "Hold this here Rachel. Are you okay?" Concern creeps into my voice.

I grit my teeth as the cloth touches my wound and nod. " I'm fine Den. That javelin got me pretty good though. I guess next time I need to try harder to dodge it. " I try to grin.

Goblins, goblins, I can focus on that. "Chances are this is it, or at the very least there are no others near. If I remember right, independent bands of around this number are common enough. If they were attached to a larger tribe, I would have expected them to take the um… spoils back with them."

"Lets bring one back, but take note of the direction they came from in case I am wrong."

Out of Character: That's Cure Minor Wounds, so no rolling, just 1 HP of healing. Not sure what that effect feels like, but it should stop the bleeding.
