Snide keeps walking and finds a cave that has goblins guarding it. He is not sure if it is the main cave. He takes the spears out of his cloths and walks into the forest while keeps an eye on the goblins. 1 has a metal short-sword and a wooden round shield that is gray thats looks 1.3 meters tall, while the other has a metal tip spear that is blue that is 1 meter tall. He sneaks towards the front of the cave. Snide places down the swords and spears. He unties the spears. He grabs a metal tipped 1 spear and readies the spear aiming for the blue goblin. He throws the spear, as the spear flies out of the forest, Snide grabs the swords. Stone in his right, metal in his left and runs out of forest towards the goblins. The spear hits the blue goblin in the stomach,
Snide sees this and thinks, "That goblin will be out for some time, so I have to be quick." as he clashes into the gray goblin. Snide blocks the attack with the stone sword and lock holds with the sword. Snide tries to attack from above with the other sword. The goblin blocks it with his shield, Snide drops his metal sword and grabs the shield by the side. When the shield is push far enough, he headbutts the goblin, knocking the goblin's head backwards. The goblin staggers, Snide drops and picks up the sword and jams the sword beneath the goblin’s ribs. Piercing all the way through the goblin. Snide pulls the sword out of the goblin. The goblin collapse, he runs to the blue goblin and slices its neck. Snide grabs the 2 spears, 2 swords, 1 short sword and shield. He quickly runs back in the forest, placing the spears together and tying the 4 spears together. He places the 3 swords in his left arm and shield and spears in his other, he kneels behind a bush, facing the cave.
"That fight made a ton of noise hope it draws out the rest" Thinks Snide while doing all of this.
Goblins start coming out of the cave, he starts to count them.
"4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 31. Ok. 31 goblins, they are wearing all types of clothing, a lot of loincloths, some wearing armour that covers them fully, all random colours" Thinks Snide as he scans the group looking for the leader, "So there is more goblins inside the cave" He quietly moves back and sneaks through the forest going right.
Snide keeps in the forest and the mountain on his left. he is not sure, if the goblins are fanning out the forest for who attacked them. he gets back to his cave and sees the female goblin is still tied up and her head down, he places the weapons and shield in the cave. He walks towards the fire, he sees that it was dying and sees that the water is boiled, he takes the pot off the fire and places more sticks on the fire to get it bigger. Snide walks towards the goblin and checks on her. He opens an eye and sees the pupil changing size. She is asleep and not dead. Snide starts to think on what to do to her. "I can kill her or make her work. Making her work would make my life easier." He decides to let her live. "Now all I have to do break her down and make her too scared to run away."

It is evening now, Snide starts to clean up the 2 goblin bodies cutting the heads off and taking off their loincloths. He drags the 2 bodies into the forest and places them on top of the corpse of the other goblin. He gets 2 sticks and did the same to the heads as the other head. He goes to the female goblin and checks the cut, he sees it is healing fast.
Snide walks into the cave and unties the spears, he picks up the short sword and starts cut 2 pieces of meat from the animal.
"It is way faster than using a stone spear." Snide thinks as he places the 2 meat pieces on the stick and above the fire.
Snide starts to clear a flat rock from all dust and cut more meat pieces placing it on the rock. He cut out all the meat he could, counting 11 pieces. Snide drags the remains into the forest, he dumps the remains on top of the goblins. Snide takes the fur back to the cave and places the fur upside down and spread it out. Snide grabs the metal sword. He lays it flat on top of fur near him and he pushes hard away, scraping the remaining meat off the skin. He does this until he smells the cooked meat, he gets up and takes the meat off the fire, he sees the goblin eyeing the meat. Snide places the meat down on a rock and walks towards her. He unties her from the tree while keeping her hands and feet tied, Snide drags her towards the meat, he sits her down on her knees, he takes a piece of cooked meat and hold it in front of the goblin.
The goblin tries to bite the meat, Snide pulls the meat away and smacks her.
"No" Growls Snide, she is now looking sad.
Snide holds the meat out again, the goblin tries to bite again and Snide smacks her again.
"No" growls Snide louder. The goblin starts to cry. Snide waits until she stops crying.
"Stick your tongue out." Commands Snide, while holding meat in front of her. She does nothing. Snide smacks her.
"Listen to me!" Commands Snide. The goblin's head is now looking down. Snide grabs the goblins long black hair and pulls up hard.
Snide then put his face in front of her. "You are going to do what I say, or bad stuff will happen, got it." Threatens Snide moving his face away and dropping her hair.
He drags her back to the tree and ties her up again. He places more sticks on the fire.
