The farm the goblins were tormenting was just on the outskirts of a monster-filled area. It was just a small forest that didn't even have a name, showing how unimportant it was.
Apparently, the goblins began to come out of that forest and dig up the crops that had been planted, as well as occasionally attacking the animals of the farm.
The people who ran the farm were a couple who had little fighting strength, and with the amount of goblins that came, they couldn't even make a dent in their numbers.
Plus, the goblins had already once tried to take the woman, with the man barely managing to fight them off, leading to him being injured, and so they put up the request.
Zion had returned to his fox form the minute they left the city walls, and so Sarah was reading the information of the request they took.
"So how many goblins, on average, do they see? Does it say?" Ithil asked.
