The goblins tore off the blindfold of the 'moth - man', and he turned to see Paddy laughing. The man instantly knew what he was laughing about, and followed in his footsteps.

"hahaha ah lad, ya named yourself white? how racist are you lad, jaysus now hahahahaha."

They both began to see how enraged White began to look upon his throne.

"It has always been my nickname since childhood, but enough about me. I want to hear more about you gentlemen, as from what I've heard, both of you have done quite the number on my Jew soldiers, and I'd like to know why.

'Jew' soldiers? Apparently, the man had no clue what goblins were at all.

White pointed one of his long boney fingers at Paddy, and stood up menacingly.

"We'll start with you, the older man over there."

"well, me name is paddy, and i only came to this world not too long ago there now fella. id like to apologise for hurting your big nose bastards and if ya can go on like a good thing and let me go ill be a happy camper."

...

"OK, and you? The man in the construction outfit."

Paddy watched as the man thought for a second, and then began to speak his mind.

"Well lad, me name's Dylan there, and I'm a garbage man and ehhh... I'm not in this world that longer either, and I came here in order to get back at this thieving knacker for stealing the only thing I ever won in my life, the fookin Nigga Lamp, he fucking took it from me and for your boys I didn't mean for those bleedin moths to kill them sure I can't control them half the time anyways like, so I'd like to apologise like a good man."

So the mad man's name was Dylan.
It also sounded like he was rambling out of either fear, or stupidity.

"Liars. Are you perchance here from the orders issued out on the behalf of the adventurer’s guild?"

They lied about what they were out doing, and told him they don't even like adventuring, lying to him with a straight face.

Their lies were exposed, however, when
their adventurer cards were handed up to White by one of the goblin henchmen.

"It appears everything you've told me just now has been a lie...  and as punishment, I will be burning you both at the stake!"

Paddy and Dylan were dragged away by the goblins following this exclamation.

They were both tied up in the very center of the nearby town. White did not lower himself to the common folk, but opted instead to watch from atop the mountain.

Goblins began piling various flammable objects such as wood, coal, and anything else that was nearby. Once this was done, they poured oil all over it, making the townsfolk look away.

"People of the town, gather round!"

One of the more intellectual goblins began speaking from a scroll he had received from White.

"These two criminals attempted to launch an attack on our kingdom within the mountains, and as such, we will show you what will happen if you defy us as your new rulers!"

"ah here fella, do ya know the worst part."

" ..? "

"even if you survive and i burn, me lamps up in the mountain still, hahaha."

Dylan began chuckling to himself.

"I wouldn't be sure of that, look in your pocket."

And just as he said that, Paddy felt something be dropped in his coat pocket, the only pocket in reach of his hand. He felt a familiar piece of paper, his card. He pressed on the text 'Nigga Lamp' like he usually does, and there it appeared like usual.

"Oh, it just appears?"

"yeah, whats the bother?"

"I thought it was have some sort of dramatic flair or sound effect to it, no?"

"yeah me too lad, it just kind of comes out of nowhere."

Two goblins approached them, each one handling a ceremonial torch of some sorts. They were about to set it all ablaze, until they paused. A large collection of moths came out of nowhere and carried the torches upwards.

"ah fuck! quick, lighthouse!"

The lamp appeared in front of both of them, and snapped their chains with no effort at all. With the lamp and moths holding the approaching goblins down, the two ran, ignoring all of their injuries.

Paddy was running, or more so steadily limping after remembering what happened to his leg, until he heard a voice.

"Paddy, quick, turn left now!"

And so he did, running into a dark alleyway, with Dylan following him.

"here, come with me fella."

"I just want you to remember when we get out of this shite, I'm coming after you again. I'm not holding any favours for ya either."

"dont worry lad, i had a feeling that was the case."

Paddy said this, whilst opening the door in front of him. They both entered in, encountering again the grand wizard.

"here fella, can you teleport us anywhere yeah?"

"Ohoho, of course I can Paddy, for I am THE GRAND WIZARD!!!!! I'm capable of anything, obviously!"

Paddy handed him some money for his troubles, and being a joker, a small note dedicated for good old Dylan beside him

'teleport this bald fella to somewhere shite'.

"ok lad, this fella will teleport us somewhere to safety, and after that ya can do whatever."

"As soon as we reach our destination, our truce ends immediately."

"ah fella i know i know."

Paddy began to laugh like a madman at Dylan, before he was teleported away.

"What the fuck have you done!-"

And he was gone.

"here fella, as long as its not near that fella, you can put me anywhere i wont be too picky."

"Alright Paddy, and away you go!"

Paddy, just like Dylan, disappeared.
