I’m sitting on the floor, He’s sitting on a tiny chair. Somehow, we’re at the same eye level. I don’t like it.

Does this mean that I was supposed to get caught by the army? Or would I still have gotten this if I killed them all? More importantly, since I was the last one to get dragged out of the forest, does that mean that I technically completely cleared the stage? ...

The second I receive the message that he’s dead, I leap away from his corpse, dodging another stab by mere millimetres.

As I have come to learn, a good sneak attack is worth more than any ally. Dropping down from above and biting and tearing up the level six’s throat quicker than she can even try to scream is so effective it’s almost scary. In seven seconds flat, she’s dead.

There’s a goblin standing right there, by the entrance to the woods. He’s holding a torch and nothing else, and I’m pretty sure it’s a guy because of the mane and the build. To preface, I didn’t exactly have time to put the goblin’s head into my inventory b...

One of them is silently weeping, and the other is staring unblinkingly at the third one that pissed itself. It’s almost a little funny, I mean, they’re just mob enemies. Is this another test of one's resolve? If that’s the case, then it’s really not needed.

Normally, when you kill something in a game, it drops what it owns. But if I did that now, it might not drop its stuff. Let’s see here… A set of clothes that are too big, a small pouch of colourful rocks that seem to be painted, a letter written in a language I can’t read, a crudely carved ...
