Eddy slipped down the hill and back into the rock garden, completely camouflaged from the battle above. Snaggle, his white tiger companion, curled up at his feet and slipped into a cat nap, aware and ready for approaching enemies. None would come, though. Eddy was now far away from that sort of mess.
The explosions had been massive. An ammo dump. Probably munitions Flashbang Exports had supplied. A good thing. More weapons, more profits. But that wasn’t why he was here. Boss Mahoney had concerns about an increased Gnome presence and sent Eddy to investigate. She had good reason. The Gnomes WERE up to something, and it was big.
He lifted his goblin radio to his mouth and keyed the mic. "Eddy, he-yahs. You were right, Boss. Dey ARE up ta somethin and it ain’t good, I can tell ya dat. Took out an in-ti-yah Horde base wits tech the likes I ain’t evah seen. "
He released the key and glanced around. Nothing near. Time to wrap up and get back to the office. “I’m skedaddlin, Boss. Not sure we’s ready for an outfit like dis. Eddy P, out!”
