They came by the hundreds.
Pale grotesque bodies that climbed like ants from the depths, stinking, snarling, biting, and drooling.
Everyone tried to stand and fight but it was no use, they had been swarmed so fast. Loreth yelled as she was ripped away from Thorin, sending her falling to her knees harshly. Thorin's cries for her we're drowned out by the goblins. She was picked up and dragged away with the other dwarves, but she didn't see Bilbo anywhere in sight. She prayed that perhaps he had somehow made it out, that he was somewhere better than the in the situation they were currently in.
They were drug, pushed, and shoved to a large platform in the middle of this vast cave. Lit by torches and braziers. They were placed before a throne, with a very fat and very large goblin king sat atop it. Crown included on his ugly head.
"Who would be so bold to come armed into my kingdom?" He said and he stepped down from the throne and looked over the intruders.
"Dwarves, your malevolence!" Answering one of the goblins in front of the company, "and a mermaid."
"A mermaid?! Ha! Those have been extinct for ages!Where is it?" He looked to the company again.
Loreth fought against the goblin as they went to pull her forward. She was surprised when Thorin practically growled at them, trying to pull her back to the group but alas, it was no use. There were too many pulling on her, she looked into Thorin's eyes, both feeling helpless.
The goblins kicked her knees out from under her to make her kneel before the goblin king.
She looked up at him eyes full of fury and hate.
The goblin king stared for a moment, "my my...your beauty proceeds you, half-breed."
Loreth felt a swell on anger flare in her heart at the name he'd given her.
"Do you know what we did with pure-innocent-mermaids?" He sunk slow so that he could be close to her face. She made a disgusted expression the closer he got and tried to turn her face away. His breath was absolutely horrid. It smelled like rot and death.
"We defiled them." He whispered. Loreth's eyes widened in horror. What in Middle-Earth did the great goblin mean by that.
"Enough!" A voice roared from the company. Everyone's head turned to see Thorin emerge. "If you harm a single hair on her head, I will kill each and every last one of you. There will be no where you can hide."
