Warden got the entire story from Tifan as they proceeded to bury the dead. Apparently, some villagers stole a beast core and decided to leave the village in the hope of renewing their life somewhere better. Unfortunately for them, they came across the bandits halfway and spilled the beans.
The bandit crew really tried to avoid bloodshed if it could be avoided. The system didn't look warmly towards heedless killing. From the villagers, they learned some adventurers hunted the monster and left a good share of the loot for all the things they lost in the attack.
With that, the bandits quickly decided it was a chance they shouldn't miss and came to the village as soon as they could. The rest was bloody clear to Warden.
Still, it was nice to learn the system didn't tolerate heedless killing. Thankfully, Warden hadn't noticed any ramifications of his actions. Perhaps the system stood right by his act.
