The Hobgoblin Riot

This ain't your daddy's tower defense! Popper, Jonah, Gretchen, and Alice are back! The Hobgoblin Riot: Dominion of Blades, Book 2. A LitRPG adventure. Clusterf--k: clus·ter·f--k. Vulgar slang. Noun. A disastrously and utterly mishandled situation or undertaking. Popper’s scouting mission to Castellane. It was supposed to be a simple scouting mission. In and out. No fighting. No new quests. Just me, my hippocorn, Alice, and a few hired mercenaries. We were going to tiptoe into the Spiral, get the info we needed, and leave. You know, the Spiral? That tower-defense run that protects the hobgoblin capital from invaders? Easy, right? Nobody would even know we were there. Yeah, so about that....
