“Goblins appear decrepit with age the moment they broke from the womb. Their backs were bent, their arms crooked, but they still moved with the speed of grace known to all elves. They grew hair from areas no other elves grew from. A flattened but plump head and oversized mouth meant a face only their own kind could appreciate. More than a hundred teeth, often clean, even, and straight, could squeeze in their ear-to-ear smile, and they often did so, because their spirit of cruelty was so often satisfied.”
