The orc thought for a moment and nodded. When pressed, he replied simply, "Bad slave. Rotting in cellar prison."

Hearing the orc's reply to Eoghan's interrogation as she retrieves her axes from the floor and removes the dirt from their blades, Bible finally breaks her silence:
"As much as I want to charge into that hall a-swingin' and teach that no good Chief Nosnra a lesson he can't ever forget, and be done with all thisk sneakin' around businisk, if there's one place me sweet Corbit ain't in this god forsaken place, it's in that hall. I might not care if I live or die today, but I ain't a-leavin' here without me Corbit, an' if there'sk a chance she's down them stairs, well tha's where I think we oughta go."
"An besidesk," she continues, "fightin' with the chief ain't an inevitibilisky. We done a smash up job o' layin' low an' keepin' orf the giantsk' radar with thisk fight we just finishked. I say we keep prowlin' around an' avoid that fight as long as we can, or until our job here is done. Tha's what I think."

The orc grunted and replied to Jack, "East. Past great hall. Not there now, though."

The orc shrugged and nodded. "Cellars."

Jack re-gagged the orc and turned to Bible. "Alrighty then. Let's see if we can't find this "sweet Corbit" of yours. The room with the stairs has two sets of doors - a pair just outside the kitchen, and another near the stone giant's quarters where we first entered. I say we go through the closest set and pounce on 'em. Maybe Quinn can fly down the chimney in the stone giants chamber and come through the other doors so we block their exits. Then down the stairs we go."

To test the logistics of Jack's plan, Quinn flew out the great hall's smoke-hole and across the roof. He'd done this dive before, so he swooped down the chimney without much trouble and came out in what had been the stone giant's room. The giant's body was gone and the room cleaned up.
Thankfully, it remained clear of occupants.
