[Nott thumbs her flask, listening to his story. It's true that humans can sometimes be cruel. And so can those with elven blood, and halflings, and dwarves, and gnomes, and everyone. She's definitely seen what cruelties humanity can bring about on its fellows.
It's just different, for some reason, when it comes to goblins. She hasn't seen any sign of "the kind goblins". She's seen Yeza, a halfling with a gentle soul who didn't deserve the pain her fellow goblins brought him. She's seen Caleb, the smartest person she's ever known, a human without a care for her heritage and surprising kindness beneath his sharp edges. She's seen Mollymauk, a complete dick at times, but who wants to make the world a little nicer for people living in it.
She has good examples of the kindness other types of people have to offer. But the only goblins she's seen outside of her clan are the ones that ambushed the Mighty Nein in the night with those ogres and tried to kill Caleb and the rest for no good reason. She has no frame of reference for what a kind goblin looks like, even if she herself is a goblin with little capacity for cruelty.]
Well, if they exist, they're probably all dead by now, [she mumbles amid the bar's general excitement over the game on the screens. Even if she agreed with Henry, it wouldn't really matter now, right? Exandria is gone.]
