Garuk's ears drooped a bit in dismay as Stybs grew to more than twice his original size.  He looked back at his fellow goblins, hoping for back-up, but they were already fleeing into the woods.  Luckily, two of them had enough sense to bring Rook along with them, one grabbing the length of rope left as a leash from her bound wrists to haul her forward, the other stepping behind her so that he could "encourage" her along as she tried to look back at the rider.  

The unconscious form of Kaiden remained under the brush, feet half-way bound.  

Not about to face the Liberator alone, Garuk plunged after his companions.  He needed to get back and warn the whole village to take up arms.  Then they'd put an end to this Liberator nonsense once and for all.  He lunged free of the clearing, unaware that he was headed straight for the invisible elf.
