...Are goblins that much more unpredictable than others?

She's learned that a lot of creatures that she knows don't exist here and their names belong to something else, or at least that there is always a chance of that. Or even if there is a similarity between the two things sharing a name, they won't be the same.

So what she thinks when she hears goblin - a dwarf infected with HMHVV - is probably not what Nitou is talking about. Maybe.

And why are you carrying around a dangerous fruit like that?
