According to their plan, the elf was supposed to split from Damon and go about her own way.
She knew the mines better than Damon did and that was why he charged her with the priority task of freeing the elf slaves.
As for Damon, his task sounded easy and straightforward on paper.
His sole duty could be summarised as 'to seek out the Ogre King, Brunt, and kill her'.
In the back of his mind, he knew it was not going to be as simple as it sounded.
The elves had been living under the shadow of goblin oppression for far too long, and Damon and Ysar were their unlikely hope.
As the forest gave way to the rocky terrain of the emerald mines, Damon's sharp eyes spotted the telltale signs of goblin presence.
He could hear their malicious giggles and grunting.
The light from their torches shining from afar.
The several goblinoid footprints.
