"It's them! they're back! hurry up and help them!" Anne shouted with a huge smile on her face.
She didn't like the idea of being left behind, but she had actually enjoyed her stay at the goblin city more than she allowed herself to admit. Goblins were smart creatures and, despite their lack of manners, they were considerate hosts.
