:You can actually speak Goblinese? Who did you learn it from? Was it Olikar the Vocal? I bet it was!
;:Who? No, I learned it through self-study.
:I don't believe you. But it doesn't' matter. I emphatically do not care. I'm here on a scientific mission. A peaceful mission. So just stop with the killing, okay?
;:What sort of scientific mission?
:My clan is famous for its Paleontology expertise. ...what, you've never heard of it? It's a sub-science of Necromancy. we bring ancient bones back to life to see how they behaved.
;:So how is that different from regular Necromancy?
:[[Paleontology]] is harder because it uses fossils, not regular marrow-filled bones. But more importantly, we don't control the creatures. We use a special technique that makes the creature follow its natural behaviors, so we can study those behaviors.
;:So the resurrected creatures are just like the normal ones?
:Well yes, except they're skeletal and filled with unquenchable hatred of the dead. Part of the hard work is trying to decide which behaviors are natural and which are a side-effect of the resurrection process.
;:And what is the point of this skill?
:Hah! On, you're serious. Well, this might be a little beyond your comprehension as a member of the monstrous races, but goblin society values knowledge for its own sake. Sometimes something isn't immediately useful for murdering your enemies, but it's still worth knowing!
;:You mean Paleontology has no purpose?
;:I completely understand. But who is funding this research?
:: That's complicated. My clan is funded by other goblin clans who repackage our research and sell it to other sages. The pay isn't great, but it beats being gutted by an angry human!
:: I'm the expedition leader. That means I take notes when the other team members bring me findings. Oh, and I'm tutoring Brugo over there as a side gig. He's safe.

I hate being the expedition leader. It means watching over dozens of novice paleontologists. And taking notes! Notes suck.}}
{{Quote|source=[[Grakelsput]]|Have you talked to [[Brugo]] much? He thinks so differently than a goblin would. It's been interesting teaching him. And I have to admit to learning a few things myself. I just wish he's clean up all his wood shavings!}}
