It takes a village to raise a child. So what you do if the village is destroyed? Ratface is a goblin whose village has been destroyed by other goblins. She's in a bind where she needs to rely on the kindness of others in a world where kindness to goblins is the exception not the rule. Things only get worse when the first person to offer to help her is an adventurer; Granny Greatsword. Goblin Orphan and Granny Greatsword is a story about a little goblin and her 'Grandma's' adventures. They'll go on quests, learn new skills, and unravel the mystery of Ratface's attackers.
