Oberon continued to use Meditation as he listened to Digbie, trying to balance a state of clear mindedness while also thinking about their current situation. It had gotten easier to use the skill as he had become more proficient with it, even being able to use it while moving slowly now, but he wasn’t sure how well it would work when his attention was split like this.

[color=f49ac2]“Yeah, okay. I had a feeling that’s what you were planning.”[/color] If the Goblin’s fought the goat in the way Digbie intended then they would probably weaken themselves in the process, making themselves an easier target for the four of them. There was even a slight chance that the goat might win and kill them all, but Oberon thought that was unlikely to happen; even if it did it would just mean that the goat was far more dangerous than they had anticipated which might actually make their situation worse.

As it was, the plan likely wouldn’t go as smoothly as Digbie hoped; the Goblin’s probably wouldn’t want to fight the goat fairly for one thing. It was fair more likely they would attempt to cheat somehow and kill the goat while it was still bound, though the presence of a now-confirmed-to-be intelligent Ash might dissuade them from that course a little.

[color=f49ac2]“If it comes down to it I think we could win. Even if they don’t kill the goat, it’s bound up and they seem as wary of it as we are; they won’t release it to fight us… I hope.”[/color] He was assuming a lot with very little information, but he was fairly certain the goat was not trained and as likely to attack the Goblin’s as it was them; probably more likely. In all likelihood Rags would want to keep it out of the fight even more than they did. [color=f49ac2]“It’ll be tough, but I think we could handle a fight against all of them. Just let me handle the one with the sword.”[/color]

Oberon couldn’t see very well in the dim light of the sealed cave, but he heard Digbie say something that clearly wasn’t aimed at him. It sounded a prayer of sorts, a short request for safety and protection, to someone called Jehanne. [color=f49ac2]“We didn’t get a chance to talk earlier, but who’s Jehanne? Does this have something to do with that stuff you found earlier? The book?”[/color]
