Chapter 1a: Above ground
Once Daniel returns to his perch and preps his bow and arrow, he gives a short report, "Iron mine. I assume goblins have an entrance into it, as close as it is to this entrance, but they don't seem to have used it. Well, assuming the miners can be believed, and I suspect they can. Odd they haven't investigated the activity they've seen, nor been directly bothered, however.
"Still, it's a route out we can't cover. No idea how extensive the mine is, nor where the goblin access is inside it. I'll be able to see odd activity from here, though."
