The Valley of Doom is overrun by dead trees and grasses.  Eerie looking animals peer at you through the brushes.  It is a dark and wicked place.

I am an elf of the realm. I hide in the forest. The villagers do not know of my presence.
I have brought you here so that we may defeat the Dark Lord together, and your people will be enslaved no more. Do you have the power to do so? The Dark Lord is near omnipotent!  I believe with my Elvish magic, and your goblin sorcery, we have a chance to end him once and for all. This is pure suicide! Thousands have tried and failed to defeat the Dark Lord! Yes - but not united!  The Dark Lord is like a magnet - one side repels, the other attracts.  When attacked by only one kind of magic, he can repel it at ease - but, if both of us attack at once, one of our magicks will get through and end his blight upon our lands forever. Is my magic even strong enough to hurt him if it gets through. Goblin magic is more focused on mischief and trickery than power and lethality.  If you are worried, I shall approach him first - when his full wrath is concentrated upon me, you strike him from the rear.  You must be swift!  If you wait too long, I shall fall before him, and all will be lost. I can't believe the fate of the entire world is hanging on me, a mere goblin.  It is upon those who seem smallest that the fate of the world hangs, and in that moment, when all that remain among the living depend on your actions, you will find the strength to succeed against any adversity.  What a rousing speech! I shall give it my all. For my people, your people, and all who have ever been slain by the Dark Lord himself.  Though our peoples may have once been enemies, from this day forth we shall be friends.  Know that whatever happens on this day, the Elven people - ALL the people - shall be in your debt. Even if I fail, I am glad to have had the opportunity to fight alongside you. Here's to our last stand!
