It took her a moment to take all of that in. "Kog-I... thank you. It really means a lot to me. It will be as you say." Not that she had much choice in the matter. Few other goblins were able to help her, and even fewer were willing. Koglan was the only one who had both the desire and means to provide for her children, even though she'd bring in some cash as soon as possible. 

"Just be aware that it will be a while before I can dance again. Months, even. Bells and jangles will help me to stand out, I guess. If it helps, I can get you a sample of what they look like. Human merchants sell them for a pittance and it's not like I have absolutely nothing left to trade for them. I doubt they have anything in goblin size, so your help is needed. Thank you again." Much of her previous confidence had melted away these last few months. It wasn't just the changing state of her body which provoked the shift; her attitude was also impacted by the need to actually be responsible for someone other than herself. For quite a few goblins other than herself. Potentially dozens over her fertile lifetime, in fact. 

She leaned back in the chair for a moment, careful not to fall. She set the chair forward again and took a sip of the water Koglan had poured for her. "If it's not too much trouble, may I have a bit of food right now? There's one more thing for us to discuss. I don't know how many sons I will have- odds are very good that I have at least one on the way- but since one of them will be your apprentice someday, you'll have to pick which boy will later serve in the smithy along with you. If he looks like a tiny version of you, he's probably your son. I-I was sure to only mate with males who looked as little like you as possible. The warriors I lay with had much darker skin than you and different hair colors from each other, when they had any at all. It should help to tell which is likely yours. For the tribe's benefit, of course." Siwa wasn't entirely certain that was the motive. Monogamy was unnatural for a goblin, but a desire to have at least one child from a specific mate while at the same time sleeping with others wasn't considered too strange.
