The strange creature continued its chattering screeches as it pointed one of its overly long fingers in the direction of the oasis at the centre of the city. 'I can't tell if it's trying to warn us that that is where the danger will come from, or if that's where we need to go to avoid it.'

The creature stopped its actions as soon as it saw the goblins reaction. The screeches that followed almost sounded distressed to Kace. Even though they did not speak the same language, a lot could be conveyed in someone's tone alone. It was giving Kace the feeling that they were short on time. He had no intention of potentially being put in a worse spot, and there was a good chance this creature could reunite them with their comrades.
"Shadow, just let it do what it needs to do."
"Why the fuck would we do that!"
