Orianna retrieves the letter.
Meanwhile, Balasar checks out the southern room. This barracks contains four roughly built wooden bunks, with heaped-up blankets and dirty dishes scattered about. A strong smell of unwashed bodies and rotten meat fills the air. The goblin Orianna spoke of is here, passed out cold.

After grabbing the letter, Orianna heads back to the room where the goblin is. "He was being picked on by the bugbears when I was in here," she says.

"Is he dead?" Zoya asks, noting that he is lying on the floor, unmoving.

"I don't think he is dead," Orianna says. "He just appeared to faint. I was thinking about questioning him about the castle we are looking for. It seems like he is the only one left out of this place."

Klaxon returns to the wizard's study and laboratory to do a more thorough review of the books, papers, and scrolls.

The goblin opens an eye upon being prodded, sees Balasar, and then quickly closes the eye. "Go 'way," he says in broken common. "Droop dead. Leave 'lone."
Meanwhile, Klaxon returns to the lab and bedroom to go over them again. He had already picked up the rare reagents (mercury, dragon bile, and powdered nightshade). But the journal written in dwarven remains, as does the treasure that was found that nobody picked up (180 SP, 130 GP, and a silk pouch containing five carnelians, two peridots, and one pearl).

Balasar tries to talk to the goblin calmly while acting like a parent trying to wake their own child "Come now get up, I am not here to pick on you or harm you. we got rid of the mean bugbear. Come now what is your name?"

Orianna watches how Balasar handles the goblin quietly for the moment.

The goblin sits up suddenly, opening his eyes. "You no hurt Droop? Droop is...Droop," he says, gesturing to himself.

Balasar extends a hand to help Droop up "Nope Balasar not hurt Droop. What does Droop do here?"

Orianna cautiously approaches Balasar and the goblin named Droop. She, from hearing the goblin speak, is losing some heart that he has the information that she needs. "Those bugbears didn't seem to be very nice to you," she says to the goblin.

"Droop is humble slave. Do whatever master say. You new master now?" he asks.

"Erm," Orianna says. "I would rather say you are free rather than you have a new master," she admits.
