91 Pied Piper

The Collector listened to the frostborn hobgoblin exposit information as they traveled towards the goblin settlement.

Through the hobgoblin, the Collector came to know several pieces of information regarding their behavior and social organization.

There were five hobgoblin tribes, each numbering around one hundred, though the tribe this one hailed from, the so called 'Frostskull' tribe, had whittled down to below fifty in attempting to support the goblin lord.

The thrall that the Collector consumed had also originated from this tribe, and the elder that the hobgoblin spoke of was the thrall's mentor.

This raised possibilities that there was potential for this 'elder' to possess the advanced form of bone binding necessary to replicate the Burial Tusks. This, on top of the elder's significant probability of possessing considerable breadths of knowledge regarding this biome.
