“These guilds of yours are primarily interested in taking money from people and fulfilling contracts; they don’t really care about the details.” The elder waved his hand dismissively. “Some time ago, goblins started appearing around here and almost drove us out of these lands. They didn’t organize any major raids against us, but they constantly carry out small attacks, and we, as you know, are few in number, and we can’t defend every inch of land. We also can’t just lock ourselves up within four walls, otherwise we’ll all die of starvation or cold. So, they steal livestock, beat our patrols to death, or abduct our women…” By the way, speaking of that, you probably haven’t noticed, but we no longer have any women left in the village. I’ve been alone for a long time, so I haven’t suffered this misfortune, but the other residents are very disheartened by it. Their lair, a cave, is located to the west of here, and we want you to destroy the goblins and, if there are any, rescue the hostages. I don’t quite understand why they kidnap them, but to be honest, I’m afraid to ask.”
