Slow Build to First Kill?

Goblins are wretched creatures. So I have been taught.

Nevertheless, they still possess life. Who are we to exact justice and take lives as we, mere humans, see fit?

So do I think to myself as two of the 'wretched creatures' lay on my feet. Killing goblins is one thing. Taking a life is another. But are they not one and the same action?

The point is moot, though, as I leave the scene of carnage with my soiled quarterstaff and bow in tow. First blood has been drawn. And there does not seem to be an end in sight. How many more evil lives must I take? Need I take?

Sometimes I wish we can just spirit all the evil races away to another place. Just like what happened to me a few hours ago...
