A Pleading Man

Isdis looked at Arad, "I hate to admit it, but I'm not that expert in the goblins' nature. I only intended to escort the elves into our land to deal with them,"

The guard captain looked at Arad, "Those goblins aren't acting natural at all. They only attack the elves, ignoring the humans, so you would rarely find them on this side of the forest." He looked at the door with a worried face.

"You're thinking the same way as me. Something stronger is controlling them." Arad sighed, "I thought the giants were behind it, but they didn't seem to have a hand."

"How could you tell?" The captain stared at Arad, worried about hearing the answer.

"I paid them a visit," Arad replied, "They nested in a cave to the north,"

"What!?" The inn owner gasped, "Giants, around the village!" He cried, "We need to put a quest to eliminate them before they attack the village."

"No need," Arad sighed, "Already killed them,"

Everyone froze, glaring at Arad's white sweating.
