34 Scorched Earth pt 1. (1/2)

Lurk had managed to dodge by spreading his legs at the last moment, the ground having a small sizzling mark, clearly, she was aiming for something very specific, Lurk sighed and collapsed being happy he did not lose any important bits.

”Haaah... Ok, let's calm down... It is just what I told him I wanted, so I could talk to you, but I forgot that he would expect baby results... I will try to save you before that even becomes relevant, i really do not want to see someone die because of this...”

Lurk said to Resti, who had collapsed again, looking annoyed at Lurk, sulking a bit she was reacting a bit temperamental, but Lurk gave her a bit of leeway due to her situation.

”Why are you doing this...” Resti asked again.

”Its hard to explain, but the goblins are not supposed to be like this... We all have a curse on us, something is manipulating us to act in evil ways. Normal goblins do not question this at all. I want to change it somehow... Giving in to this curse will make it worse, at least after what I could gather from examining the goblins here...”

”But... i have an ability to change my -ahem- young... I think over time I will be able to remove the curse somehow... One day maybe.”

”...What do you mean... You can change your young?...” Resti looked at Lurk quizzically

”Hmm... Well, you know how goblins evolve?... I think it's like that, but I have the ability to pick their evolution. My first born at least will be slightly guarded against the curse. ”

”... Your first born?... You are already putting goblins in a woman!!!” Resti said, her hand giving a few sputters of fire, but the ball did not form.

”Hey hey!!, It's a goblin woman!! Oh wait, are you out of mana?... You will go unconscious if you keep that up... Here..” Lurk moved closer and grabbed her hand gently.

[Elven Soul Link]

”Ah good, it works... Was unsure if High Elf, Wood Elf link would work...” Lurk said as he gave Resti some mana so she would not go into mana shock and lose consciousness.

”... You know I am a wood elf ?...” Resti said the fires in her hand vanished, as she calmed down.

”Yes... I can see your species with my ability. Human / Wood Elf... Uhm... Is something wrong?”

Resti was looking a little upset, a tear appearing.

”Nothing... I was just reminded of my mother...” Resti said Lurk looked at her Menu again.

”Let me try and remove this poison... But you have to fake being paralyzed if anyone else comes down here...”

”[Lesser Poison Clear]”

Lurks hand glowed with a gentle golden light, his spell coursed through her body, she seemed to be able to move better. She sat up. Covering her body up. Lurk had been all this time trying his best to not look at her naked form, she did have ripped pants but her shirt was torn to shreds.

”Can you explain this to the other women also?... I am low on mana right now so ill try to come down later and remove their poison too. As long as they know to fake it... I will also try to bring some clothes down...The light I put in the ceiling will not work for very long... Sorry...you are separated from some other women, but they have already been, well...”

Lurk explained as he got up and moved to the exit.

”...How will you save us all?...” Resti asked Lurk as he exited the room.

”... I guess I will have to kill all the goblins that resist...” Lurk said looking back with an intense stare, as he stepped outside and closed the door.

Lurk headed upstairs, making sure to not go near Vrek, in case he might smell that he had not mated with the woman. Walking inside the Sun Soakers cave, Aurk, Vorm, and Sala came over to greet him.

Lurk looked at them, he had their full attention.

”I am gonna need your help...”

A few days passed, the nest was stirred up as the Sun Soakers began to guide goblins out into small groups to put up scouts camp network. Making sure to hammer into the goblins put there on their tasks.
