Chapter 12

  Choices

  Agamori spoke in Daniel’s mind as he nodded his head out past the tree he was peeking from behind. “There. Past the brook.”

  Daniel slid his head to the left and squinted his eyes until his vision cleared the tree, and he could see the squadron of goblins and trolls camped out in a clearing.

  Ever since they attacked Rosemary in the meadow, Daniel had grown very fond of exterminating goblins and was always glad to rid the North of the slimy, stinking vermin. Daniel felt particularly cruel today, with her rejection of him still fresh on his mind and ripping through his chest. So, when Agamori gave the others the command to flank the enemy and flush them toward the trees they waited behind, Daniel was more than pleased to make his presence known.
