"It's your lucky day, bear," said Manisha, and she sped off in the direction of that voice.

A group of goblins were rushing towards the cave.

Manisha fell upon them like a thunderstorm, spraying them with bolts of lightning!

Using Multiattack to attack the first four: 16 Attack, Damage 10

The goblins fell, their skin charred.

"Ah! The have Snake-Human!" one of the goblins shouted. "Kill her."

The goblins attacked, but you were able to deflect their weapons.

Blades appeared in Manisha's hands, and she lashed out at the goblins, who were apparently determined to fight, and would now suffer for it.

[ooc]Multiattack for Area on 5 Goblins... and it's a crit, so I think that's five more goblins down.[/ooc]

The goblins were indeed dead. The remaining ones looked from the bodies to you and back again.

"Run away!" one of the goblins shouted and the rest did.

Manisha tossed several blades of ice after them as they fled.  Better to remind them why they were running...

...and then she hurried to look after her kobolds.  Hopefully the goblins hadn't made it far.

The kobolds had a defensive line around the mouth of the cave.

"I routed the goblins," said Manisha.  "Is everyone all right?"

"Yes, thank you, new god," one of the kobolds said.

"It's what I do now," said Manisha.  "So what do you normally do with fallen foes?  Take their weapons?  Leaving the fallen there doesn't seem like a good idea..."

"We loot the bodies and then they go in slime pit," the kobold said.

Manisha nodded.  That seemed reasonable enough.

"All right," she said.  "Well, there's some of them out there now, so enjoy the loot."

"Thank you, new god," the kobold said, bowing down respectfully .

Manisha considered, and nodded.

"You're welcome," she said.  "Were you able to gather some healing herbs?"

"Not many, the attack kind of ended the search," the kobold said.

"Understandable," said Manisha.  "Let's gather food for now, then, and we can look for herbs tomorrow."

"What do you want to do about the bear, new god?" the kobold asked.

"It's a strange bear," said Manisha.  "I will go with you.  I'll protect you, and if we come across the bear, I'll deal with it... but I wonder why it didn't do anything when I approached.  A bear like that should have done something."

"It could be an awakened bear," the kobold said.

"A smart bear?" said Manisha.  "That's... interesting.  Well, if it shows up again, I'll see if I can reason with it."

"New god! New god!" on of the kobolds a couple hundred yards away shouted. "I found something."

"Show me," said Manisha, rapidly moving in that direction.

The kobold was pointing to a fancy greatsword leaning against a tree.

Manisha approached it, checking to see if it was magic.  Or if there was some kind of magic trap around it...
