Spoils of the Hobgoblin Captain's Skirmish

After a fierce clash on the outskirts of a contested battlefield, the party managed to overcome a hobgoblin captain, his loyal lieutenant, and a cunning kobold scout. The grim scene revealed remnants of hastily abandoned camps and gear indicative of the hobgoblins’ disciplined martial culture paired with the kobold’s scavenging nature. Among the chaos lay weapons crudely but effectively made for combat, some signs of early battlefield refinement in the form of iron scraps and a few personal trinkets taken from fallen foes. The party's careful search uncovered useful gear and small treasures that hint at the ongoing conflict in the region.
