"You are not allowed to use your bow" —Said Corvo while staring at her eyes with his crow like mask — "You haven't killed before"
She made a little jump by the surprise. He noticed, and probably everyone on the mercenary business would have noticed. They were walking with a turned on torch, making their way into the forest of the goblins where they were supposed to have their nest inside a cave.
"The first time has to be personal. You have to feel how death takes their last breath while the victim slowly loses consciousness" — Said Corvo — "You can use your bow after you have killed one with the dagger I gave you. Are we clear, Stella?"
"Yes" —Answered Stella. She gulped after the orders were given and suddenly, out of nowhere, Corvo turned off the torch using his hands and the black leather gloves that covered it.
"Shh" — He whispered, and pointed with his mask to the front.
They got closer, and found a Hobgoblin and two goblins. The Hobgoblin, who was a stronger and bigger version of a regular goblin, was sleeping while the other two kept watch of the entrance. They were dozing, with one foot on the realm of the living and the other one in the realm of the death. Worse thing? They didn't even know.
