[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 8962790, member: 59816"] Bible and Jack took the lead, heading into the tunnel in the back of the old crypt, while those that would stay behind organized themselves into groups. Javok, the nominal orc leader, was still recovering from his ordeal in the torture chamber. Still, he possessed enough personal charisma, that the orcs that would stay behind gathered around him. Not to be outdone by the orcs, the dwarves too formed their own little group. This left only the dwarf Harmock, who had been chained to the wall in the torture chamber, but appeared to be determined to go forth in spite of it, and the two orcs who had survived the attack on the forge - whose names were Bakkog and Khalga. These three where ready to join the group moving forward when Bible and Jack gave the word. Cordit, still in the form of a giant ape, stayed out of the now-crowded crypt, but she positively quivered in anticipation of bounding in to join Bible as soon as it was reasonable for her to do. The way forward was not far, but it was still littered with rocks that had not yet been cleared from the excavation. Bible and Jack could see an orog in the dim light of a few torches that were affixed to wooden support beams. The orog had finished shouting at a dwarf woman, who was dirty and holding a pick. She looked like she would like nothing more than to bury the pick in the orog's face, but he was well-armored and held a large axe, while she was in nothing but dirty work-clothes. She nodded and turned back to working at the wall. As Jack raised his crossbow, suddenly an orc stumbled into is firing line from a side-tunnel. The orc was so startled by the sight of them, that he shouted in surprise and raised his pick. Bible and Jack could tell that he was about to charge them.
