"The group I sent to watch the orcs is not back yet. They are due some time now, that is when I ordered the shift." the captain said, and went to a few of the men in the back, ordering the orc runners hunted down.

While a few well selected men of the town's soldiers left following the footprints of the two orcs who had left going straight south towards the stronghold, the third orcish runner reached his companions. There he told them of the message and gave his commanders orders to them and then went on towards the stronghold.

In the town the rain started falling slowly and then more steadily and Harmeth invited everyone in to her family's house to shelter from the storm. By the time they got there all of them were drenched and they took some time to dry themselves. They were surprised by a knock at the door. One of the guards from the town gates was there.

"Mylady, you'll have to come and see this."

He led them to the guard post next to the town gates where a man was lying on a bed, mortally wounded. The guard captain was already next to him and informed them of what had happened.

"He is the only survivor of the scout party we had sent out. I could not clearly make out what had happened, but they had encountered a large body of orcs southwest of here and somehow a battle erupted where his companions were all slaughtered."

"I fear that Glurg has hidden the main body of his force from us. If what this soldier says is true then the orcs number close to two hundred. We must prepare the town's defenses and mobilize our men."

Foreshadowing the events to come a massive thunder could suddenly be heard. Just as the last rays of the sun peeked out from under the clouds in the distance the sentry at the top of the gate blew the horn of the city. The orcish host had been spotted.

For Salphur, Hurlon and Bober.

After travelling for most of the day, you decide to make a small camp to spend the night. The last rays of the sun are still enough to see clearly, so you start setting the sorroundings to suit you for the night. Salphur is gathering some branches for a fire, but you are interrupted by a sound of something running through the forest recklessly. You look up and see some movement in the distance between the trees, but you can not make out who or what it is. The other two in the group also notice something now. Whatever it is, it is moving towards you, fast.

OOC: well I am finally back! So much things happend during my absence.

IC:
After a brief moment, Bober was stunned for a momemnt or two. He was not sure what to do. Two things were running through his head at the time: should he try to escape or should he stay with his two master and prepare for fight if neccessary. Then he decided that it would not be wise to run becuase he was a prisoner and said:Salphur you should try to make fire in case that is some nasty beast. I think. Maybe we should hide?He looked at his masters and said:I am opened for suggestions.

Although a bit suspicious of this sudden idea from Bober, who had been quiet for some time before, Salphur decided that it would be best to prepare for a fight, although he was good at hiding, if this thing had somehow tracked them down, there was no way they could simply hide up a tree.
Salphur called Hurlon to grab their weapons, and keep an eye on Bober who seemed a little jittery...

Keal · 11-07-2004, 08:32 PM

ooc:wheres turin?

Xen · 11-08-2004, 01:08 PM

Bober was also prepared to fight and was hoping for one thing. Since he was a prisoner of Salphur and Hurlon he could escape if they would be killed in a battle and if he would survive. But he decided that he will have lots of time to think about that. He grabed what he could and said:"Listen you two. I know we have some differences between us but let us give them away for just a moment and prepare to fight."

Next time could you post OOC posts in the discussion thread please?

Larry has told me that he has been very busy with real life lately, but he said he shall try to find time to post on one of the weekends.

BTW Xen ROFL at your "I am opened for suggestions".

For Salphur, Hurlon and Bober.

You take positions to battle the potential foe, and draw your weapons. Bober picked up a wooden club and crouches in wait with the other two.
You can see it closing in, and some metal reflects the sun rays that are somehow coming through the dense forest. Fangs and dark green skin flash before the creature moves behind the next tree, out of sight. A shrub is covering the thing moving directly towards you, and you can only hear it braking branches and brushing accross leaves. Suddenly, the creature jumps through the shrubs, and runs a few more feet before it notices you. Wearing next to no armor and holding a waraxe in his hand, the orc stops five meters away and takes a step back. "Human! And elf!?!" he growels and takes a battle stance, holding his axe high. He notices the dwarf and he barrs his teeth at the trio, preparing to strike at the enemies of Morgoth.

Bober picks up a rock and throws it to Orc. Then he attacks with his club and strikes the Orc at his legs.
