He had also asked for a thing that belonged to him before our tribe looted his belongings. Something called a kan-tin, a… container which only held stream-water for drinking, similar to a waterskin. He said it was necessary to keep his seed-stick healthy, but I wasn't sure whether to believe it or not. Husband seems healthy now, though he would rather eat fire meat instead of bloody meat fresh from the kill. I don't know how he will stay healthy eating it though…
Is there a chance that the Great Protector is wrong about this human?
I know it is a blasphemous thought for me as the goblin tribe's guardian to have, but it was still a thought I had nonetheless. I do not doubt the Great Protector who saved us when all the goblin menfolk were killed when I was only a strong one of not many moons back then, but I am a strong one no longer. The Great Protector promised us the chance to regrow our tribe when we became able to take big seed and make strong ones on our own, and now we were given our Husband, though human, who has seeded me and another so far.
It will be four more days before the signs begin to show that there is a strong one in my belly, though I am already certain the big seed was successful. I will soon begin the next generation of our tribe and the others will follow after me. But my fuckhole still quakes! It begs me even now to ask Husband for more big seed. Big seed which belongs to the others but is wasted with me. I cannot be selfish here. Husband is to be shared by all of us. He cannot be treated as a thing to be taken by me alone.
I had to get up. I had to carefully lift Husband's arm in order to climb out from underneath it.
The cave was dark now, the torch had burnt away, and I knew now that Husband could not see me leave. I felt bad leaving him alone in the darkness, however there was much to do. My first task was to bring Stone-seeker back to her cave-hole, to see how she was doing. Now that I had also been on the receiving end of the seed-stick from behind, my legs felt like reeds in the wind with each step I took as I forcibly dragged her out of Husband's cave-hole.
Reaching her cave hole took longer and much more energy to do than I had expected it to.
"Stone-seeker, are you awake?"
"I am. My legs are weak, I cannot even lift them."
"Husband is good, isn't he?"
"I did not think his seed-stick would make me feel like that. Husband's big seed stole the strength in my body, and my eyes saw the sun at mid-day. I was blinded but I didn't wish for it to stop, either."
"Yes. There was much blood to be found, a good omen. We will both give birth to many strong ones from Husband's big seed."
"Why have you brought me back to my room? You wish to trade for a shiny stone?"
"Not for a stone. Husband was looking for a thing he used to own. It is called a kan-tin, it is round and flat and water is kept in it."
"All that I took from Husband's things was the shiny white stone. Now it is my greatest treasure, more than even my shiny yellow stone. You are collecting Husband's things to return them?"
"No. He doesn't care for his other things. Only for the kan-tin. He says it is needed for the health of his seed-stick."
"If you find who has it, I am willing to help you get it for him."
"You wish for him to waste seed with you again?"
"Am I wrong to want it?"
"No. I also feel the same."
"Only my legs fail me for now, Guardian. My fuckhole will not forget how good it felt. I may be head-sick."
"You are not head-sick. Husband's seed-stick left me feeling the same. It will pass after more rest."
"I wish it would… I also wish it would not."
"Husband showed care with you after. It is possible he may wish to waste seed with you as well. I will tell Husband that you are resting so the big seed may take."
"I will have many strong ones from Husband's big seed."
I left her room, where she lay alone in peace and suffering, knowing what I also know, wanting what I also want. I must now think of which goblin to send to his room next. But first, I needed to leave goblin-home. I needed to get a face-full of fresh wind and sun before I returned to Husband's side again, wanting to crawl back under his arm once more, only to feel unwilling to leave again.
Many goblins were outside of goblin-home. Some have gone to hunt, others less useful do their tasks, such as dragging branches on the ground, keeping the tracks leading to goblin-home a secret from those who dwell in the forest, like the black-claws, as the great protector ordered. Most do nothing but sit and talk and argue near the fire pit, but all topics right now are of Husband.
It was natural for it to be this way, not much else was of importance to the goblin tribe at the moment than our new Husband. I feel superior over the others, not only as their Guardian, but also knowing I have received Husband's big seed more than once. I must be careful not to let it make me stupid-think.
I walked into the forest, until I found the one I was looking for. It is the runt of our tribe.
After some talking, and her thinking that I was trying to coerce one of her treasures from her for the chance to be with Husband tonight, I got mad that she was being stupid with me. Husband so far has had me and Stone-seeker. We are both big goblins, sturdy, strong, with big milkies. What will he do with a runt goblin that has small milkies? Will he also give her big seed knowing she is the weakest and might not even have strong ones?
"Runt be with Husband? Yes! I will come tonight!"
She agreed quickly when I gave her the choice of being chosen as the next to go to Husband or wait until she was the last goblin to receive big seed. There might not even be big seed for her by that point, since there are many goblins in goblin-home waiting their turn to be with Husband.
Perhaps she is not that stupid after all, since she has managed to live this long as a runt…
