Do that mean goblins do not know metallurgy? besides marteled gold?

NEW LONG TERM MAIN QUEST: THE SECRET OF STEEL.

Sillly person, that magical thing called steel is the sole realm of the dwarves.  We're limited to copper, brass, and, at best, iron.

Is there even dwarves in this setting?

No.

There are Elves but the Elves are technically Goblins, just a bit culturally...

We'll get to them in time, don't worry.

To break any confusion this is nothing like DF or any generic fantasy world. Your goblin is short, brown, wrinkly, has goat eyes and eight fingers, and his ears are literally the same size as his head (losing one actually puts a goblin off balance because they're so heavy. They have to relearn how to walk the same way suddenly having one arm replaced by solid iron would screw with a human.). The term Goblin isn't even the word they use, they call themselves "people" in their language: "Ulsa". Goblin is the name given to them by Human settlers, which they adopted after they took to Anglo-mandarin.

Also they become about 30% catholic, 40% buddhist and 10% other, depending on which tribe was contacted by which settlers. But this is all extraneous; are you all out of questions? should we move on to the next Chapter?

But if there's an appropriate opening (unlikely, I know), go for the eye.

Or the ear.

In September this year Terry Garner, a 69-year-old farmer from Coos County, Oregon, went out to feed his pigs but was devoured by his animals. Nothing but his dentures and a few body parts were recovered. Investigators believe the hungry hogs may have knocked Garner over before killing and eating him.

Thus began mankind's eternal war against bacon.

Read that about a month ago.

I can remember being told, when I was young, that pigs would happily eat almost anything. Looks to be true.

They will.
Mandatory bacon laws, anyone?

What's the daily fail?
...It's me, isn't it?

Depends. Have you run a news from a .co.uk website before? And has it liked to be generally fail?

I'm glad to say that the most defunct business I've ever run was a store that sold mythical animals to gods and the like a few millennia ago. They were all either crippled or rabid, though.

What's the daily fail?
...It's me, isn't it?

I personally don't care, just so long as no one distracts me from wrassling Tim.

I have discovered the exploits of a man named Christian Weston Chandler.

Why, for the love of all that is holy, would a god who created the men and women who discovered set theory, wrote symphonies, painted masterpieces, and wrote the great books of the ages also, in that very same species, place upon this earth such a man? I have no answer to this question. But it is truly terrifying.

OH DEAR ME DON'T REMIND ME OF HIM
