Time to me*The Goblins
The goblins that the fairies had seen in the underground
town were from the Wah Wah tribe. They had built up a small community deep in
the bowels of the earth, way under the hedgerow.
The Wah Wah community was named after their famous founder; Fidget
Wah Wah Rainbow Dancer. He brought lone goblins together and eventually they
settled and formed the Wah Wah tribe.
Goblins generally eat earthworms and slugs and snails, which
are readily available deep in the earth. They even have their own worm farm
which produces enough sustenance for all the community. Slugs and snails are a
treat. The goblins have their own colony
of glow worms or fire flies, (lamapyris noctilura) these help to light the public
areas and individual dwellings.
The current leader of the tribe is Fidget Frost Goblin, the
tribe call him FF. He is a direct ancestor of Fidget Wah Wah Rainbow Dancer. FF
has four sons, Brucie Frost Goblin, Drake Frost Goblin, Niblog Frost Goblin and
Forster Frost Goblin. He has two wives which is very common for a tribe leader.
Brucie and Drake will take over command of the tribe when
their father retires.
FF runs a tight ship and all his helpers organise the rest
of the community. They organise the gathering of all necessary materials for
day to day life. Roots for burning, the drawing of drinking water from the
underground streams and the up keep of the worm farms.
All the families that live amongst the tribe have to be
answerable to FF’s helpers.
The majority of goblins are very hairy and wear green or
green and yellow tunics. They have huge feet and hands and all have very
similar facial features.
When they smile, they show the most enormous teeth that
would fear any normal living soul.
The only ones that do not fear the goblins are the
Hobgoblins. Hobgoblins are larger than goblins and usually live high in the
hills. Hobgoblins eat anything and anyone and have been known to hunt down
goblin communities when they are really hungry.
They seem to have some kind of extra sensory perception for
finding various goblin tribes. FF, being a good leader, had agreed many truces
with various hobgoblins over the years which had prevented any bloodshed.
Although the goblins had captured the two chickens, they
didn’t really know what they were or what to do with them; they put them in a
room whilst they had a meeting about them. The meeting was scheduled for this
morning at 10 am. FF, his helpers and his sons; Drake, Brucie, Forster, and Niblog
would be in attendance. Also attending will be Radella; he was the wise man,
the sage, the councillor. He sometimes has the ability to see into the future.
FF trusted his judgement implicitly.
Donnella and Elvira her mother, two female goblins went to
get the room ready, sweeping and dusting and making a snack for them with some
drinks etc.
They left the room just as FF and the others were coming
down the corridor.
The meeting started. FF headed the meeting. Brucie stood up
and explained the situation,
“As you know we have captured two creatures, we have never
seen anything like them before, they eat worms like us, they drink water, but
they don’t say very much. One of them has black feathers and the other one has
brown feathers, they have a beak like a bird and they lay eggs because one of
them left one in the room, we don’t know if they are safe to eat or not?”
Radella stood up and said,” I need to see these creatures
before I can advice, where are they being kept?”
Brucie replied “Follow me I will take you to them and then
we will resume the meeting”et the goblins,All for now
