The hemogoblin hums merrily as you retrieve the dagger and
fruitlessly attempt to mop up the pool of blood. It wriggles
around---suddenly seemingly boneless---and giggles and blows
raspberries as you try to take measurements with the GBD. It is kind
of annoying but also totally cute.
Your instrument picks up on an anomaly. You have a clear vital signal
for the hemogoblin. That's normal. And there is an extremely high
amount of ferrous material inside of it. But you think that's also
probably normal for a hemogoblin. Finally, there is a faint signal of
some other kind of entity. And that is not normal.
Under normal circumstances you would say, given the measurements,
that this second non-goblin entity is in some kind of stable but
near-death or catatonic state. As though it is a deep sleep. Is there
some weird magic at work here? Or is this some strange,
undocumented part of the normal hemogoblin physiology? Did this
little fella just absorb a knife spirit?
The hemogoblin reaches up and holds your hand as you pass the
instrument over its body. It smiles at you happily.
WHAT DO YOU DO
