Calaethis glances around, and looks hard at the forest.. "Excuse me, cousin, I will be back soon, less then an hour..." With that, he grimly draws his longsword, and merges with the shadows, looking over his shoulder he called out "Don't worry I won't be long, and I won't be going too far..." then he vanished into the foliage...
A few moments later, after Calaethis had sprinted off, he came across what he was looking for... Three goblins taht had been following them since the underdark, Calaethis had spotted them several times, but no-one had listened to him. Crouching next to a bush, he listened to their vile tounge, obviously they were following the party for a reason, it seemed they were going to ambush them at night... Calaethis sneered petty lesser creatures he though... then he quietly walked up to them, still hidden in the shadows, and plunged his longsword though the neck of the nearest one, before they realised what was happening, two of their number were dead, the second one losing his head from Calaethis's blade, facing the thrid one, it glanced around looking for a way to escape.. seeing none, and the grim faced elf, it fell to its knees... In a moment of pity, Calaethis was about to let it go, when it threw a dagger at him. Gracefully and with infinate ease, he doudged, and calmly ran the last goblin though... Then he wiped his blade on the grass, and checked the corpes, there was nothing of value. Leaving the bodies to the birds, Calaethis vanished into the night, and repeared at his cousin's camp quater of an hour later. He threw the head of one of the goblins at Ali's feet, and stalked off.
