Clearly knows something about the "Hunting Day" and "Association" inner workings.
Yet seems to be worried about something.
Opened his mouth but said nothing.

In the depths of the Mist Forest, in a certain goblin nest.
Silence.
Unusually quiet.
Unlike the adventurers' impression, filled with feces and mud, packed with bones and broken debris of a goblin lair.

The torches placed methodically between the stone walls illuminate the entire cave.
The densely distributed passages, and the open, plaza-like internal area seem to blend the characteristics of "Earth Goblins" and "Bear Goblins" nests.
Like a giant... anthill!
