The goblins looked in alarm as their leader fell down...yes, they were fearful, but the human was tired by the fight with the boss...but Cyra didn't seem to notice, or care. She had her own decision to make after all.
Yes, she would keep the oaths she had taken in her previous life.
Her path had never been, and would never be easy...in fact, there were countless temptations of other, easier paths. Still, it was a path that had its own rewards for those who followed it.
Steering away from doubt and temptation, Cyra felt renewed. She had been able to use some of her divine powers before...but it was only now, that she really felt *herself*.
The goblins wavered for a bit. Sure, weapons and armor sounded tempting....but sadly it didn't look like that was enough. However, since the new Boss decided to let them go...they had no reason to fight, either. After confirming they were free to go, they went into their tents, and brought out what little they had. Cyra would also see female goblins, surrounded by young goblins, peeking out of their tents, as they were also preparing to leave.
However, not everybody left. Three goblins, two male and one female, seemed to think about staying or leaving...but the other goblins seemed to urge them to leave.
"Think humans are good? You only end up pet or dead!"
"Do you want to end up like them? Huh?" an other goblin would point to the severed heads
~~~
"Eh. You won, alright. Don't worry, I will keep my word. You want to brag about beating me to other humans? Hah. Well, either dying here or there, is the same, isn't it."
"But, sure, Cyra Darkbane, I am Ozorg and I will answer your questions."

Kindle the Light. Through your acts of mercy, kindness, and forgiveness, kindle the light of hope in the world, beating back despair.
Shelter the Light. Where there is good, beauty, love, and laughter in the world, stand against the wickedness that would swallow it. Where life flourishes, stand against the forces that would render it barren.
Preserve Your Own Light. Delight in song and laughter, in beauty and art. If you allow the light to die in your own heart, you can’t preserve it in the world.
Be the Light. Be a glorious beacon for all who live in despair. Let the light o f your joy and courage shine forth in all your deeds.
