Esdras got a good look at the assailants, they were goblins. As far as he could see, there weren't too many of them twenty at most.
This was not a very fierce force, but he still wouldn't choose to attack them blindly. From his recent experience, you learned to be cautious and careful.
The others were waiting impatiently for him.
"How is it?" The prince asked.
"Nothing much just some goblins trading a carriage, a merchant most likely." Esdras shrugged.
"We should help them." The prince replied while looking at the rest of the group almost everyone nodded along.
Esdras was still apprehensive, but he was not a coward, being careful did not mean being indecisive. You had a reason to help these people since they could. And besides, they're monsters.
