It was luck that the small army in Hider's command came across a pigeon trainer the next day, so they sent a message to the King.
Once Hider had realised that Thor and Solegother had made an alliance together, he found himself in a worse postion, he would now have to send back two hundred soldiers at the minimum, because they had to get back through hostile country.
During the whole time of the trip to Hederse he had being racking his brain of what to do, but it had been pure luck that they had come across a retired, pigeon trainer that just couldn't make himself sell his pigeons.
Then that done they moved on to Hederse, a few days later at midnight they arrived at Hederse. They were questioned at the gate, after Hadero told the sentries who he was and what his misson was, they quickly stepped back and allowed him and his company to pass.
The Goblins marched forward to the town of Demberg, they did not know that every man in the town was on the other side of the wall. There were two men on duty, they pretended to see the goblins for the first time. They jumped up and rang the bell, a few men started to appear on the top of the wall, the goblins ran faster forward as they saw that only a few man opposed them. Their black blood started to move faster as the urge to kill became stronger and stronger; then just as they were about to shot a man on top of the wall, a horn sounded, it sounded like a high pitched scream from behind them, they turned around and saw about sixty men on horseback.
The horsemen began the charge, none of the goblins heard the massive town gate open but they felt the sword blades slice through some of them. They turned around and then the horsemen came down on them, they got slaughtered. After ten minutes the slaughter was over all, two hundred goblins died but only twenty men.
The Baron wanted to give a feast in Dominic's name, but he said, "No" because he had to protect different towns.
