Kadoodle had little trouble getting into the parlor. He had simply produced a jar full of cookies from his pouch and explained that he was their chef. As soon as the guards sunk their teeth into the treats, they let him past. He happily entered and then stopped dead in his tracks. 

He couldn't believe his terrible luck. First of all, the small boy and the hungry looking man smelled horrible, and clearly ate plenty of food. More work for him. But his biggest worry was the Snow elf. All elves despised goblins, or, at the very least disliked goblins. The elves grow up learning how terrible goblins are. But even worse then the elf was her companion. Clearly he was protective of her, and most likely hated him as well. The goblin was almost certain they would try and avoid having him on the mission. Kadoodle tried to slink into the corner of the room, but he knew that the pair would confront him soon.
