Despite their reputations, Goblins can make fit companions especially if you might get into a fight.
Side trip today to meet two Goblins: Remie, a.k. a Mr. Vegas, and Carnelian. They’re both Reds, Ringleaders, and each have attitude to spare. Reds are fiercely loyal and the best warriors you’ll ever need, but they’re also sneaky. If you decide to work with them, keep it an eye on your buttons.
Let’s start with Remie. He calls himself Mr. Vegas, but don’t confuse him with Mr. Las Vegas, Wayne Newton. Remie is Newton’s biggest fan—never missed a Wayne Newton performance. Not to state the obvious, but Remie rules the Reds living in Las Vegas. Lived there well over a hundred years, and has no desire to go back to the Wildes.
You might not realize Carnelian and Remi are of the same clan. Each survives in the form best suited to their surroundings. Carnelian lives in the Wildes and has no desire to move to Las Vegas—totally old school. At the same, Carnelian proves to not only be a great bodyguard but also a good friend to the young twins.
I keep wondering what will happen when these two have to work together, but that’s another story.
Peace,

P.S. Hope you’re enjoying the start of summer. I ran into summer with a great big smile, and then I slammed against a brick wall. Allergies! When you hear someone behind you sneezing and sniffling, that’s probably me. Please be kind and pass the tissues.
