Tale 67 told by Taniwha on 28.11.2000
Those dmaned Kobolds

I was sitting back, having a couple mugs of dwarven spirits, when this guy
comes stumbling in.  I don't know if he was all right in the head, if you
know what I mean, but he sure did have a nice story to share.

He told everyone in the place about a forest full of kobolds that ran
around in packs and killed and pillaged everyone in sight.  I figure, by
his account, they must have a nice little horde stashed away somewheres, 
though I've never heard of kobolds actin' like he said they did.  
And that forest he spoke of.  It was rightly odd too!  All pretty and 
green, and full of animals and such, but the closer you go to the middle of
the forest, it just got scarcer and dead-like, until time was just frozen,
nothin movin or growin.  Well, he pretty much had everyone ready to go 
lookin for that kobold treasure, until he told us 'bout that forest, if you
know what I mean.
  
The man got up and stumbled out not long after, and I never did get him to
say where that place was.  Not that I've heard of anything like it around
here before.  But maybe he just wasn't right in the head, if you know what
I mean.
