The golem went to work, stamping the life out of the little green goblins, picking them up and tearing them apart. In the mean time Helia used her staff to fight them off, the red light from the crystal began to extend as Helia began manipulating the dead Goblins to attack their former friends. "What in the name of Unrdor's Hound drew them out?" She shouted over the carnage to Galrauch, it would be best if they stayed close together, back to back if possible, it only took one blow to the back of the head to be rendered unconscious and then once you were on the ground with the goblins, you might as well plan to be killed.

"The smell of flesh or coin I expect." he replied as a metal boot met the face of a goblin, swinging his blade a moment later he lobbed off one of the filthy things heads. But for everyone he struck down there was two to replace it, like fighting a short but long snickering hydra. The flesh golem appeared to be handling itself fine, and the witch too, sadly. The worst aspect about fighting the devils...was that they were so short, it made fighting them awkward. A taller for was more suiting for a knight. With quick movement he avoided a rock thrown at his head, another struck his chest but his armour plate protected him.

Helia ducked a rock, which was aimed at her, unfortunately it would most likely strike the Knight if he didn't doge it. She kicked one of the beasties then knocked another with her staff, the Golem continued it's assault while the dead began to crush their former allies. "How many are there?" Helia grunted to no one in particular. She swung her staff again, knocking over a few more.

"Not enough, thank Kord. They are cowards, and are broken easily, running at the first sign of possible defeat...until a Orc rallies them forth again at least. They must be scouts for a greater horde, it is best we leave this place at once." He informed, as they started to, as he had explained, break. With moral shattered they were quick to run, practically trying to step over each other to get away first. Goblins, always the same, protecting themselves first, kinsman second. Its why they would always be weak. The Knight made his way to his horse, freeing its reign before mounting up. "Travel with me to the city Dead Raiser, it is not safe here."

Helia nodded, looking up to him and reaching for his hand, to help her up. The Woman watched as the horde ran back. Her Golem chased them for a few moments before they took the creature ran back to his master. She braced her self to be helped up onto the horse, she was much to short to climb up with out the help of the stirrup.

Galrauch offered his hand to help her onto the horse, she had after all fight at his side, and bravely, and it would be rude to let a woman walk the journey at the very least. "Can your monster keep up with my horse? Red Hare is very fast." he explained, and it was a fast horse, of fine breed, mates had been carefully selected to produce a horse that could carry the weight of Galrauch and his armour, without losing speed. It was a powerful stallion, could cave in an orcs chest with its kick, which it had on several occasions, that always earned great laughs from its rider.

Helia gripped the back of his saddle. Her knees digging into the horses knees. "He can keep up well enough." She nodded to the golem who trotted up beside them. He looked up at her, the bag on his head, shifting as if the head inside it may have been moving it's mouth. Helia smiled down at the Golem then reached a hand up to snake around to Galrauch's waist so that she could hold on tighter. "Ready."

"Then let us go." He informed before starting off, with a shake of the reigns his horse exploded into movement, quickly leaving what appeared to be the regrouped and back to fight group of goblins, and sure enough, a black orc was in the midsts. It would have to be reported at once, such things could not be tolerated in the woods of the Pass. Much blood had been fought in the area in the past, and there would be more if the creatures thought they would lay claim to this land.

Helia gripped tighter to Galrauch when she saw the Black Orc. When she wasn't expecting to see one they always brought back memories she'd long tried to suppress. The Golem, was keeping up with the horse at it's heels, and waved at it's master as if it were sensing her feelings. Of course it was, she controlled the creature and it reacted to her feelings and commands. Her fingers turned a yellow white on the back of the saddle as she gripped it tighter. "Could that be an advance?" She inquired about seeing the Orc.

"I feel it is best we assume it is until we know otherwise, but when it comes to Orcs, it almost always an advance, I cannot recall ever finding a single Orc. They are a horde people, they need large numbers, an Orc is just an oversized goblin, perhaps not as smart, truth be told." he informed, as they continued to ride, the horse moving quickly, its footprints pressed into the dirt road out of the forests edge and on to the main road, leading back to the city.
