The cursespitter stands (uses 15 ft to stand), then runs away 15 feet. Rhogar and Knight B go for an attack against this fleeing foe, but the cursespitter is far too crafty! It begins to chant in goblin and shouts, "To me!" The goblin boss suddenly vanishes from nearby P.T. and reappears adjacent to the cursespitter. Trait Reveal! -> Goblins are crafty and do not trigger Attack of Opportunity when they move out of an enemy's reach. [Rhogar did not actually spend his reaction.]
"Tch!" The knights make chase after the goblin boss and cursespitter. Knight A whistles to remount his horse and rides. Knight B is still mounted and catches up with ease. Knight of Helm A's Greatsword -> Goblin Boss (Attack: 14 Damage: 11 vs AC 17) Knight of Helm B's Greatsword -> Goblin Cursespitter (Attack: 8 Damage: 8 vs AC 15)
Regardless of the attack, the goblin boss craftily dashes away 60 ft! He turns and pulls loose his shortbow.
The snipers direct their attention onto Alice. One of them has advantage on this attack! They then hide again, but they look pretty nervous. Goblin Sniper A -> Alice (Attack: 11 Damage: 5 vs AC 12) Goblin Sniper B -> Alice (Attack: 18 Damage: 5 vs AC 12) Goblin Sniper A -> Hide 7 Goblin Sniper B -> Hide 7

P.T. quickly follows after the goblin boss, but changes his course last second, instead darting out at the cursespitter with both attacks. Both land, blood spurting from one wound while frost crawls across the other.
Meanwhile, if Alice is still up, she takes careful aim and fires at the same sniper she hit last time, another deadly bolt flying from her oversized arbalest.

[Edwyn and Rhogar. Rhogar is no longer under the effects of the hex, so he can act without fear of pain. Next turn, the soldiers will turn their blades on the goblin's you've been targeting. If you can kill the goblin boss or cursespitter before they act, I will give you a bonus item as a reward! Like a blue tier loot!]

Rhogar chases after the cursespitter, once again bringing his sword down on them. The blade only manages to nick them, but Rhogar's shield follows quickly after. Abandoning his eldritch magic, which definitely has not been working out, Edwyn draws his shortsword and bears down on the goblin as well, stabbing them in the leg.

P.T. comes after the goblin boss like a dog out of hell. His first strike is desperately parried by the boss, but his second strikes true, straight into their chest. Frost once again spreads across the goblin's body from the point of entry, leaving no entry wound, only frozen, cracked skin. Meanwhile, Alice searches around for the fleeing sniper, loosing a shot blindly into the woods, just guessing their position.

As P.T. finishes off the goblin boss in epic style, the knights and soldiers -- along with Alice's well-placed aim, dispatch the rest of the goblin snipers and minions. After a moment of silence, the knights clean their blades and resheath their weapons. Turning to P.T., the knight that seems to be the leader speaks in an authoritative voice, "Thank you for aiding us, young man. You and your's, I believe you will find whatever trinkets the goblins had to be a fine reward. They've been sending stronger goblins out recently -- if you can believe that."
Edwyn is already poking through the corpses with the tip of his toe. He seems disturbed by the dead goblins. It's quite possible... that he hasn't really had to kill anything with his own hands before. He picks something up from near the cursespitter. "Interesting..."His eyes seem to faintly glow a golden color. He doesn't say anything else, but you realize he picked up the goblin's staff.
Rhogar, meanwhile jovially attempts to make conversation with the knights, but you can tell even their patience is reaching its limits with his enthusiasm. Alice is nearby, seeming to keep a watchful eye over Rhogar. She makes no attempt to loot the goblins.

P.T. takes a moment to clean off his rapier, simply sheathing the ice blade, for it never actually pierced skin. They maunder over to where Edwyn stands, and gesture to the staff. “What’s that, Ed? Find something you like?”

"There is a magical aura on this staff, but not the whole thing... just this."Edwyn shows you the staff. Embedded in the staff is a blue agate, you think. Its smooth to the touch and round. Edwyn unceremoniously breaks the staff over his knee, and out pops the blue agate. Its perfectly spherical. He grins. "This thing has evocation radiating off of it. I believe it makes spells more potent, but there is no telling what else it could do. It was in that staff, but I think it simply needs to be held on your person... and I doubt any of us want to walk around holding a skull-based staff... not even Alice."
On cue, you both look over to see Alice giving Rhogar a bland look as he turns his attention over to her. Edwyn seems to mutter a prayer for Rhogar's soul.
"It is your call, my liege, on what we do with this." He holds it out to you. When he calls you his liege, you expect it to be sarcastic, however, you detect no sarcasm whatsoever.
