Chapter 20: Cleansing

Goblins dwell everywhere. They are the terror of our times. The monsters in the light.

Their expansion is vast and endless. Their reproduction is fast, and their wits are surprisingly substantial. Kingdoms in the great beyond often fall to their ruin at the vile creatures’ hands. So quick are their travels and so fast do they spread that it is suspected that they have learned how to travel through even the most treacherous of morphic ice, a feat that no human has accomplished in a great many years, ever since the great beyond has turned too cold and treacherous.

Thankfully, for the moment, there is only one known goblin city in the undergrounds of the Crystal South, in the far northwest. The land surrounding the city are vile. The snow is darkened, the trees are twisted and ill-colored, and even the sky seems to be perpetually greyed, as if some fog rises from underneath the ground and pollutes it.

No human has ever visited the city and survived. Civilized men from the clockwork cities avoid even the surrounding goblin territories at all cost. The lands are often called the Realm of Doom.

Goblins, on the other hand, have been interrogated extensively about their city, and the lands above. Those who are captured and tortured rarely divulge any tangible information—they are stubborn and spiteful creatures, but those who can be broken, call their land Grâ Baile, or, in translation, Loving Homeland.

If the goblin city in the Crystal South is, indeed, the homeland for all goblins nearby, it causes one to wonder how long we have before they gather and attack, or if they are just biding their time.
