Sure... He takes some rations and waves them at the wolves and starts to back out of the cave towards the exit Here puppy puppy puppy! Whos a good boy?
What if someone else takes a Help action by giving them food as Kal tries to dog walk them out?
Bran, take a bit ah dis food an toss a bit in front o' 'em as we go.
That would work, still need a check. Would Kal be taking both wolves or just one?
Kal is going to try to handle the two wolves on the leashes. One each hand while Bran is helping with the food? How do you want me to roll the check(s)? Single roll? One for each?

Kal grabs on to the chains on the wall and the wolves seem to notice instantly, they turn on him and the white one growls at him. Branah tosses some food and the wolves seem to forget about Kal having the chains and begin to nip at each other over the food, you make rather slow progress out of the cave as a group. When the goblin is dropped the wolves go after it looking to eat him, but Kal holds on and manages to restrain them. You pass the 'prisoner' tunnel and see the boat at the exit. Once you reach the exit Kal unhooks the leather straps that are holding the chains in place on the wolves and Branah runs with some food for a short distance before throwing it as far as he can. The wolves take off after the food and devour it. They look around for a few moments and the white one howls into the afternoon sky, the other one following shortly after. They run off into the forest without a backward glance.
Kal returns to the group and motions for them to pick the goblin up. I pull a dagger out and stick the point into his throat.
Ok friend. I'm gonna take dis gag out and ask ya some questions. Ya yell, scream, or try anyt'ing other than answering my questions, I'm gonna push dis blade right up into yer brain. Nod if ya understand me.
Once the goblin nods
We're lookin fer the dwarf and human dat was caught recently. Ya tell me everyt'ing I want, I let ya run away an' live. Ya lie to me, ya gonna die. Ya waste me time, I start hurtin' ya. Got it?
Once the goblin nods again:
Ok. Where are dey? How many gobos in der? Any other allies or other creatures with ya? Start talking.
Reach up and pull the gag out.

A bit timidly the goblin starts talking Klarg gots lotz more globlins. Dey be evberyware. He gets 2 mores mealz, a hummie and one o dem short tough ter eat ones. The goblin responds to you. Klarg gots wolves o' his own. Dey bites at alls us gobrins. I anseer yer qwestin. Lemme go! He starts to become more confident near the end.
Klarg be no gobrin stoopid. He bees a bugged bear. An dere are lotz mores gobrins. Wees don't want ter work for Klarg but he be killins us if wees not. Yemmek wants ter kill Klarg. The goblin says. Now I done. All I knows. He starts screaming at you and begins to turn purple ALL I KNOWS! ALL I KNOWS!! LET ME GOES!!! ALL I KNOWS!
Kal calmly press point of the dagger into the underside of his throat hard enough to break the skin, then pull it back. Calm yo' self. I said, no yellin'.
If he calms down, Kal stops pushing. If not, Kal pushes the dagger through the bottom of his throat into his brain. Assuming he calms down, Kal continues:
I said I'd let ya loose when ya answered all my questions. I'ze still got questions.
If nobody has anything to write on, Kal will use the point of my dagger and sketch out the cave as we've explored it in some dirt. I want to have him give us an idea of the layout of the caves - where Klarg normally is, where the prisoners are held, what traps and defenses are present, etc. If the goblin wants to draw anything on the map, then we can find a stick for him to use.
Break it down fer us.

Iz nots so good at dis drawins but I can makes a map den you lets me go. The goblin says. Deals?
Yur not in position to make deals, friend. Ya lack what dey call leverage. Yur in a position to do what I say and answer th' questions I ask. OR yur in a position to die.
Ya die, ShrugsI don' lose a ting but the time it takes me to slit yur throat. Den I go bout my bid'ness anyway.
Ya draw that map. I mayhap more questions once I see it. Or mah friends may have questions dey want answered. Once we're done & I'm satisfied ya've been honest, I'm letting ya go.

My plan was to be way outside of the cave - out of site of the entrance. I assumed everybody followed, carrying the goblin outside. Wouldn't make sense to do it inside the cave system. Don't want yelling and screaming echoing or somebody else stumbling across the interrogation.
That would work, still need a check. Would Kal be taking both wolves or just one?

Zandrich makes sure to position himself between the goblin and the cave entrance i say we chop his balls off and make sure he produces no spawn

Branagh will make an insight check on the goblin to see if its truthful or saying anything to stay alive 18
