Figures.

Handling the undead should be my priority, but the people who've glued themselves to me would rather pursue the goblins instead. I [i]suppose[/i] I can see the logic, given the goblins have already caused actual harm to the college's archaeological staff and so far the undead haven't harmed anyone. But, it's only a matter of time, isn't it?

Regardless, it's not as if violent goblins are out of the scope of a paladin's duties. We destroy evil wherever it appears, and evil can come in a variety of different forms.

Still, it's frustrating not being able to choose on my own. If I knew where to find them, I'd give those evaluators a piece of my mind.

"Hmph. I suppose it [i]was[/i] my second choice," I say, rising to my feet, watching the nem girl's hand retreat after she pointed to the mission to drive out the goblins. I pause for a moment and glance at those surrounding me. The nem girl, a hundi man, and a fellow human. I don't know what any of them can do, but I suppose that the nem is most likely suited to stealth. She's certainly quiet enough, given I haven't heard her speak a single time.

"And since they won't let me take a solo job, I [i]suppose[/i] this saves me some time."

I have no intention of hiding the annoyance in my voice.

Leaving the other listings on the table, I pick up the listing from the college.

"What do you people do, anyway?"

I turn my gaze towards the people who've gathered at my table.

Not that I'll really need to know, given I feel perfectly confident in my ability to handle goblin rabble, but if they're going to insist upon sticking to me like they have so far then I [i]guess[/i] I should ask.

I hope this won't take too long.
