Hopsek didn’t proceed to attack the tiefling not because of what he said as much as for the appearance of two new targets, a burly dwarf and a pack wagon driven by a, gnoll?

”LITTLE THING!? You ambush Hopsek!? Smart to bring helpers!!” the goblin whipped out the short sword with his right hand while his left raised slightly, half in a defensive pose half in a motion toward his other sword. He hissed, a deep angry sound bubbling from the depths of his throat. Clearly caught between fight or flight as more things appeared around him.

Kalvin jumped a little at the noise of a tiny thing. He peered down. "A goblin? Unless you stole something from me, little thing, I have nothing to do with you." He said calmly. "Maybe keep it in lest you want to be kicked out of town for causing trouble." He said. "I just teleported here. like them" He indicated to his appearing companions. Peridot was still on his shoulders, not all that happy about teleportation, so she hooted in annoyance and flew off.

Peridot didn't just fly in some random direction either, she has perched herself on top of a stature in front of one of the three temples of this town. This one was the Temple of Xai, though it has seen far better days. There was also a very irate priest yelling about something.... something about how this town has abandoned their faith "The Father of Man", though most seemed to just ignore him and be on with their day.

He groaned a bit, glancing at his party members. "What do I do? Is it hungry?" He asked, watching Peridot fly away. The yelling made him curious too. "Here, you angry little thing." He said dismissively, tugging out a part of his rations to lightly shove in the goblin's little hand before he walked off towards the temple. He left the angry goblin to his incoming companions to deal with. "What's all the screaming about? Who got your knickers in a twist, priest?" He asked.

You approach a human man who seems to be in his mid 70's, he looks to you and speaks aloud "These heathens have turned their backs on the destroyer! The great and mighty Xai! The Father of Man! And he is angry, ANGRY I say! ANGRY!" he gestures to the overcast sky above, "Why else would he bring the threat of flood and lightening to our town? During the Dry season? for shear enjoyment? NAY! NAY I say! This is merely the the start of his relentless wrath! Come child! Come and Repent! Repent and you shall be spared!"
 
Hopsek stopped cold as the tiefling shoved food into his hand. He looked at it curiously, cocking his head slightly, then looking back toward the other newcomers. Perhaps they didn’t need to be filled with holes.

He tore into the food and was about to stow his weapon when a huge saurian appeared, startling him again into moving the sword forward, though while stuffing the rations into his face it was clearly a much less threatening display.
 
I mean what is around us? Can you describe the whos and whats?

To the east, there's The Temple of Xai. East of that is an inn known as the The Wispy Wisp, and east of that is the Harbor.

To the west you'll find the shopping district, west of it is the Temple of Gagail, and west of that is Holtarv Manor.

South of you is the The Library, The Turtle Island Tavern, and the Temple of Saiama.

The North is the living district, though there is a pet store and a magic shop that are separate from the shopping district.

This town is considerably larger than sabalii

Peering down - very far down - at the Goblin, Vrail cocks his head to the side and looks critically at the shortsword he might be getting threatened with. He then quickly scans the area, tensing up for a fight, then relaxing when he realizes the Goblin is not part of an uncountable horde assaulting Birth.

"You speak Common?" he asks Hopsek. "I am looking for a Saurian named Rah Kriian and would appreciate any assistance finding him."

The sword drops unthreateningly to Hopseks side, “Yes, Hopsek speaks common.” he continues munching as he thinks about the name the Saurian inquired about. He hadn’t been in town long but had he heard the name in his time there?

That name is a Draconic name, which is weird for a saurian to have... But despite only being here for a day you do recall seeing a Saurian in town, they usually hang out around the south side of town.
 
Evora winced at the light flooding the inside of the chest. Toryk's kick jostled her inside, positioning her awkwardly on her side.

She gave a muffled "Mmmhmm" in response to his question given the rope gag. She was almost entirely numb and didn't feel all that much as he jerked her onto her stomach and undid her arms and legs from their box and frog ties, respectively.

"Yes, Master Toryk, thank you." She responded, as he yanked her head back by one of her horns to pull the rope out of her mouth.
Letting her head fall back onto the gold pieces in the chest, he left Evora to clumsily exit the chest.

She moved like a newborn deer, her limbs stiff and unresponsive from being locked in the same position.
The movement of the wagon caused her to stumble several times on her way up to the opening at the front of the wagon.

Climbing laboriously onto the bench driver seat, Evora carefully sat down next to her owner.
Not out of caution but to ease the discomfort of the bruising all along the back side of her body.

Her bright, ember eyes looked around curiously, she had no idea where they were. Before she could ask, it looked like the sky lit up with magical energy and they were suddenly somewhere else.

Evora tensed up and instinctively wrapped part of her tail around Toryk, leaning into him.
"Wha-where?..." she asked as if her mind was as numb as her body.
She was distracted again by the Goblin throwing a fit and peered at the altercation from under Toryk's arm.
"Who?"

“Maybe, Rah Kriian, maybe. Not a saurian name though, no? No. But maybe Hopsek has seen him.“ the goblin finished off the last bit of food and sheathed his sword. It was clear now that he wouldn’t be able to fight all of them, so perhaps a different approach. He was still looking for that glorious quest, and he did have that dream that seemed to forebode strange tidings. These seemed as strange a tide as he had witness before, a motley crew appearing out of thin air searching for a Saurian with a strange name.

”Perhaps?” Hopsek raised an eyebrow at the Saurian, “Perhaps you need Hopsek of Bograt to show you where Rah Kriian might be?”

"Perhaps I do," Vrail responds. "Well met Hopsek of Bograt. I am Vrail, and I am in need of finding of my countryman - and the quicker the better. Would 5 gold pieces make this worth your while?"

"Five gold," Toryk added, "IF you get us there." He said to the goblin, ignoring Evora's tail wrapping around him.



He did turn to her though. "This is Birth. And I hope that chest be locked or ill be locking you in there till high noon." Pumpkin Spice Cyanide Pumpkin Spice Cyanide

He chuckled a little. "Breathe, old man, lest your face go blue from lack of air" He said, looking up at the statue of Xai where Peridot was perched. "I don't think gods need reasons to do anything." He shrugged. He wondered if anything like this had happened before.. outside of fanatical priests claiming it be the wrath of their gods.

(Would Kalvin know of anything similar happening in the past?)
