"If I could take my pick between Lizard Men and Goblins,  I would choose Lizard Men as better hosts.  Though I do like to slay a good goblin." - Axio

After the adventurers come out of the orb, they spend the next few days roaming an unknown forest.  Time had changed at a different pace than they percieved inside the orb and their location had become another mystery. Terios found out that he knows roughly where they are but not the direction to a main passage.

Finally, they come into an opening that appears suspicious.  Nixxa and Rimeron went ahead to scout out the area.  They saw four lizard folk surounding a giant Rage Drake.  They appeared to be playing or training with the animal.

Once Nixxa and Rimeron returned, there was much debate on how to proceed.  They first debated on sending the Pixie out on a rope as bait for the Rage Drake (Rimeron really wanted to capture the Rage Drake as a mount).  Axio then suggests that he could distract them and teleport away in time for Rimeron to take out some in the back.  But they finally listened to Pern who kept repeating.."But guys what if they are not evil?"

So, the group agreed to parley.  They came out from behind some trees and approached the Lizard Men.

Axio says "How! We come in peace.  We also have an ugly friend who looks similar to all of you!"  (he points to Draconus.)  The Lizard Men look confused.  The group quickly realize that the Lizard Men don't understand Common.  The group almost entered combat with the Lizard Men until their intentions were made more honorable when Rimeron began to trade with them.  He offered to trade things for the Rage Drake, but all attempts seemed to fail.  Finally, Starfire was able to gesture (in her pixie fashion) that they were looking for a way back to civilization.

The Lizard Men took them to their village.  They stayed for a night.  Draconus was visited by the Chief's Daughter who appeared to have an infatuation with him.  He declined her.  She left angry and disappointed.  The next morning the Chief led them out to nearby passage which he gestured would lead back to civilization.  He didn't appear to be pleased with Draconus.

Eventually the adventurers came to what appeared to be a run down farm.  There were several goblins tending to a field.    Terios tried to talk to them in the goblin tongue.  They quickly became irritated and said "You are not the master!  Attack!"  After several heated minutes of battle all but one of the goblins had been defeated.  Terios landed the finishing blow.

Finally,  they came to a farm house.  Terios opened up the front door as quietly as possible but he was confronted by a Large Rat...
