Kyanite points holds up 3 fingers. Holding 1 up he points to Odo I and then holds his wrists together. He makes a throwing gesture and shrugs. Then he moves forward.
Kai and Odo move towards the voices, taking the fork to the left. You see a large cavern, dimly lit by a cooking fire, filled with a slight haze of smoke, and a horrible, pungent stink.
This large cave is divided in half by a ten-foot-high escarpment. A steep natural staircase leads from the lower portion to the upper ledge. There are 3 goblins in the cave - two smaller goblins in the lower area, one of whom is pleading with a third. The third goblin is larger than the others you have seen and is currently screaming at the goblins in the lower area.
Kai:
"I don't care if you're scared - go kill Klarg before I kill you!"
The larger goblin then turns and heads towards something you hadn't noticed before - a human figure, lying on the cave floor, hands bound. As you watch, the large goblin grabs the figure and pulls it towards the ledge.
"Hurry! They are going to kill the captive!" Kyanite shouts, then moves to engage the two smaller goblins (if there is enough movement, I will take partial cover behind the crate) by hurling a shard of Ice Knife at the closest..

Kai runs in, shouting, and hurls his magic at the two smaller goblins. The blade misses, but explodes.
DEX saves: 178
The scrawny goblins manage to avoid the blast, jumping over the piles of grimy blankets on the floor.
The larger goblin, still hanging on to the captive, looks up in surprise. He dodges both of Ajax's blows, and immediately puts a knife to the captive's throat and starts yelling in Common.

Odo Will keep to the shadows, not acting aggressively, but also trying to stay out of sight. Hopefully with the goblins attention laser focused on someone else they won't notice.
If they notice, he'll raise his hands and appear innocent as possible.
The large goblin yanks the hair of the captive and the human groans in pain.
“I think I will keep the knife where it is, human,” the goblin growls. “You want this puny thing?” he says, shaking the captive, causing another low moan. “You can have him. But first, you must do something for me. Kill Klarg, and he is yours. Deal?” He waits for a response, knife still at the throat of the captive.
Odo-the goblins are busy watching Ajax and Kai, and don’t notice you.
Mulligan gets a bit of cave dust in his eyes, I guess.
Ajax - you hear a noise up ahead off to the left. It sounds like voices, but you can’t make out what they are saying.
Ajax indicates the left and to be ready
After a minute of tense waiting, it doesn't appear that the voices are coming any closer. They sound angry, but you don't understand the language.
"Advance?" Odo whispers.
Kyanite follows closely on Odo's heels... "Don't rush into combat, let me get off something that may damage a few of them
"ALWAYS GIVE A MONSTER AN EVEN BREAK!"

Mulligan hangs out behind the little ones, keeping an eye out for any possible attack from the right flank.
Odo nods at Kyanite, then presses forward cautiously.
Ajax stands close to Odo
Kai, as you advance cautiously behind Odo, you hear the angry voices.
"Yeemik, we have to go - Klarg said so!"
"I don't care what Klarg said! Klarg is stupid, just like this human!"
Ajax gestures to Odo the number 2,
whispering
”let’s go”
But he does not dare to venture first because he is not well, he is quite worried by his wounds, still aching

Odo looks toward the party for a sign of whether he should act or wait.
