A snort escapes her as Zhi tries the same thing again. She keeps her axe at the ready to see if his spell takes hold again - and then sighs when it doesn't. "Worth a try, I guess," she says with a shrug. Then she twists her torso around with the sheer force of her swing, trying just to hit the stupid thing.
Neph looks over to Arora and Raza after his turn of chopping, wipes his brow. “Whew! A little physical exertion like chopping wood makes your body feel good! It sure is nice to be able to rest up here. I have never encountered a goblin that I could trust, but he sure seems nice, doesn’t he? I am tired of all of the continual fights... looking forward to a good rest and some time for meditation.” His mind seems to be in a better state with the physical activity and hopes for a peaceful rest.
Arora swings the axe again, splitting another piece of wood, she stops for a minute as Nephvir starts talking. “It does feel good, doesn’t it.”
”You know, that’s what concerns me a bit.... first off he’s a goblin and he’s being nice, that in itself doesn’t seem right. Second, he’s about the largest goblin I’ve ever seen...that seemed off a bit. Thirdly, he offered us a place to rest....never met a goblin that would do that. Anyway, Mock didn’t really see him as a threat since she said should could just ‘stomp, stomp’ and squish the guy. Besides that, Daewen, who doesn’t trust much went right in and Kasha just rolled up like a puppy dog and lay down by the fire.....so I just figured I would come help Raza, especially since one should never go out alone.” She stops and thinks for a moment “I’m guessing Mock should be able to handle him if he tries some funny business.” She then proceeds to grab another piece of wood, sets it on end and swings the axe to split it.
Raza hums to herself she gathers the cut logs and puts them into piles for the four of them to carry back to the goblin's cabin. Sitting in front of a warm fire sounds wonderful and she really wants to ask Kasha about the whole wolf thing. She pauses her tune. "I suppose there is a first time for everything including a nice goblin and I think Zhi really needs a chance to warm up after that dunk in the river." She adds.

Zhi frowns as the Barghest resists the spell. He ducks out of the way just as a claw would’ve left a nasty gash on his face. Well aware of his fragility, he resorts to whittling away at the creature’s mind. In preparation to weaken the next time he commands it to grovel, he slivers the mind of the Barghest.
DC 14 Intelligence save for 5 psychic damage. If it is a fail, it takes a 4 penalty to its next saving throw.

"Hey, now," Mock says, stepping back in front of the dog-creature and slashing her axe through the air at it. "I know it's fun to hit Zhi, but we can't be doin' that."
Oh, snap! We got a hit! Out of the corner of your perception, Neph, you can hear the sound of something like glass breaking coming from the cottage. Just barely.
Neph stays the woodcutting axe, holds up his hand. “Wait a minute, somethings not right! I heard some glass breaking - come on guys, let’s go check out the house, my spidey senses are tingling....”
Nephvir runs around to the door, pulling out his short swords... he opens the door and lo and behold!

A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
Zhisshikassa considers Mock's words and is momentarily distracted enough weighing whether or not throwing a (justified) insult back towards the blue tiefling is worthwhile considering she is the only one preventing Zhi from being the Bhargest's next meal. Unfortunately, that allows the Bhargest's claws to rake across Zhi's chest with the sound of scales snapping beneath claws. He attempts to speak but only a muted gurgling sounds as ichor-like blood runs from the corners of his snakelike mouth. He looks down in surprise and shock at the injury, clearly not expecting the Barghest to pass his defenses - pain would come later.
The (very injured) Zhi snarls and draws another bead of honey against his forked tongue, once again trying to Command the Barghest. With a more muted voice than normal, he weakly utters the word: "Halt."
DC 14 Wisdom save or the Barghest spends its turn halting. Bad dog.
Outside, you pass Kasha laying on the floor, bleeding, and covered in small scrapes and scratches. Glass from a broken window pierces places of her skin. She's moaning, half conscious.
Here's the saving throw: 14 He fails. He halts to to portent.
Zhissi's cobra-like hood flares as the Barghest repels his spell. Not today. A fizzle of geometric, arcane energy pulses from his hands as he rasps an incantation that rewinds the world until the Barghest's mind snaps.
