GuloxChuffy, 15th of Neth on the road to Sandpoint

Gulo marched down the dirt road, hand on pistol in case any bandit or other nerdowells should make an appearance. As he marched his thoughts drew back to Sandpoint, how foolish was he being? I human town with goblins living in it? Just thinking of the idea sounded ridiculous to him, it was most likely just humans mistaking some other small race. Even then he had to see it for himself, if only to do something with his now ample free time.

Chuffy watched the strangely dressed hobgoblin saunter down the road, wondering what the strange contraption in his hand was. He walks out onto the road ahead of the creature and calls out in Goblin, "Guten tag! Can you point me in the direction of Sandpoint? I appear to have gotten lost on my way." Chuffy watches the hob for his reaction while flexing his hands to reach for one of the flasks on his bandolier in case trouble arises.

Gulo's eye's narrow at the goblin, readying his pistol "Guten tag goblin. Go north, vallow da road that hugs da sea, as best as mine directions are."

Chuffy cocks his head to the side. "Really? All I have to do is follow the road? I've had people tell me to avoid the road and given me outrageous directions... One person said I had to set myself on fire and fuck myself before I could make it there. Though he also said some fairly rude things about my clan, so maybe I shouldn't have listened to him. Regardless. Where are you going? You seem like the friendly enough sort, at the very least straightforward. Which I can certainly appreciate. At least I have directions now..." Chuffy trails off as he pulls out a map and begins writing notes on it, crossing some things out.

"You speak good common goblin, almovst no accent." Gulo looks the goblin up and down, covered in vails and reeking of alchemical reagents "Vi am also on my vey to Sandpoint, investigating da vild rumors of goblins living in da town."

Chuffy's eyes light up at the mention of goblins living in Sandpoint. "Oh yes yes yes! That's why I'm going too!" He looks off wistfully in the general distance of Sandpoint. "My love awaits my arrival. She must be so distraught without me by her side, living in that barbaric pit of longshanks, without even her teeth to keep herself safe." He swivels his gaze back to the hobgoblin. "We must make all haste. There's no telling what torture she may be enduring." Chuffy begins marching down the road, muttering to himself about how grateful his love will be to the great Chuffy for rescuing her.

Gulo groans at the goblins over display of emotion, but sighs "I zuppose it vould be safer to travel in numbers. I assume you have a name goblin?"

Continuing down the road, Chuffy raises his arms above his head and shouts, "I AM CHUFFY! SLAYER OF KNIGHTS IN SHINING ARMOR!" He launches a firework into the air, and it explodes with perhaps a bit more force than is altogether necessary. "Well I could be if I ever meet one. Do longshanks still do all that chivalrous knights stuff? I can't keep up with their weird history." He finally turns around, asking, "And you? What's your name? Do you have an impressive title? I'm still working on mine. Maybe I stick with slayer of kobolds..." Chuffy plays with the hem of his scaly red coat contemplatively.

"Gulo, and I zuppose if I must have a title it vould be soldier." with that he begins to march at a forced pace past Chuffy "Ve must be quick Chuffy, you have just alerted everyone to vere we are, and I doubt many of dem are friendly."

Chuffy scurries after Gulo. "What kind of title is 'Soldier'? Why not choose something grand, like 'Foecrusher' or 'Reaper" or something more awe-inspiring? Soldier is so bland. Anyone can be a soldier. But you're Gulo! Gulo the... Gutripper! Gulo the Goreswimmer!" Chuffy follows alongside Gulo making up new names for his new companion as loudly and grandly as possible. 

Gulo tunes him out, silently hoping the goblins of Sandpoint are more disiplined.
