Utterly Mad

"Oy, Saltmummy! You want in on this?"
"This" appeared to be a dog pile of kobolds onto some rather furry ball of fury.

Saltmummy opted to give the honey badger a single good sock to the guts, just to be a good sport. Otherwise she feared that it would turn into another "party" where the other kobolds in the warren wrapped her in a blanket and beat her with sticks again, and she didn't have time for more of that. There were other things to get done, starting with a group of kobolds that had recently moved in. Another thing was to see what the human wanted. Or rather, Saltmummy wanted to go stare at the visiting human. It was fairly rare for any of the other peoples of the world to not maul kobold kind on sight, and so encounters such as this were sometimes a once in a lifetime chance. It also helped that he told the most interesting stories. Much better than that kobold bard who kept telling everyone about how good coyote tasted.

"Why do you talk like that?" Asked a young kobold to Saltmummy. "Eh? Why I talk like what? All kobold talk like this." She said. "No." Said the young kobold, "Just you shamans. Why?" Saltmummy was confused and wanted to ask the child more, but suddenly his mother grabbed him by the arm, "Lokoshangus! You leave that shaman alone. You know what father told you about them." and then to Saltmummy "We sorry. He not old enough to be respectful. We punish later."
"Uh." Said Saltmummy.

Once again the proud kobold bowmen are called out to go beyond their duty, much to their annoyance, and kill a giraffe. They do so handily and the kobolds feast for a time more on something other than shellfish.




notes:
perigrin is in fact a male kobold.
So far, we have received 4 migrant waves. I wasn't aware that was possible unless this is some kind of mod thing?
