Description
A worker goblin in service of a Dread Lord wasn't expected to do much more than maintain the sprawling, underground Machines Works. Although he imagined doing more, Tad had long accepted that he'd likely end up an old man like his boss, Glum, happily toiling among the gears and cranks.
When an enigmatic orc named Hohza suddenly recruits the pair of goblins into his War Party, their duties to the Dread Lord Withering Sorrows switch to battling dwarves, sprites, and elves. If Tad survives, he may get to experience a world wider than he'd ever dreamed ... which may be too much for everyone else!

- TealiciousTeaRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5A fun descriptive start. Common fantasy species are given a fresh spin in this one. Grammar is good enough. Style leans towards heavy description so expect bigger paragraphs but nothing excessive. It is written well enough. The charaters are cool and at the beginning of somwlething greater. Overall a nice fiction.
