Advance on the Canyon

• Roughly hundred or so hobgoblins out in the open
• Holes are carved in the ground that the hobgoblins go in and out of.
• The party discusses ways to scare and harass the village in order to identify their leadership and encourage them to signal to their menfolk working for Odessa.
•  Al as a bird starts casting lightning on hobgoblin children.
• Hobgoblin woman in charge comes out of one of the holes, she begins running and taking control of the scene, collecting bodies.
• Woman seems to have at least seven bodyguards around.
• A horde of rats starts pouring out of the hole (thanks to  Al) and takes the hobgoblins 30 minutes to get the town back in order. People begin taking up arms and lock the city down, assuming there is some sort of attack or infiltration.
• The party discusses ways to further "curse" the town to raise their fear and superstition.
