LABYRINTH C [3]

As the tense silence settled over the group, Tanii's voice pierced the air like a blade, drawing everyone's attention to the motionless goblin lying in a pool of crimson blood. Runiel, the seasoned warrior, approached the fallen creature with deliberate steps, his movements calculated and precise. With a fluid motion, he knelt down beside the goblin and retrieved his dagger from its lifeless form.

The forest seemed to hold its breath as Runiel's gaze lifted, fixing on another tree where a hoarse voice suddenly echoed. "Wow, impressive... your senses are sharp," the voice rasped, revealing the presence of yet another goblin perched high above.

Runiel's demeanor shifted, a glint of defiance in his eyes as he addressed the unseen speaker. "You got an issue?" His voice was laced with a subtle threat, his bloody dagger pointing accusatorily towards the hidden goblin.
