Vairar glares at the hated enemy, seething at the delay, but knowing that only living elf kill orcs. He hopes he won't make the enemy of the young human, but if the boy lives through the ordeals and lives to be old however quickly that came to humans, Vairar will consider it a success.

Lionel sat down an had a snack. You never know when the next opportunity would come.
He was good at picking locks and sneaking about, and he had a good eye for details. He had even proven to himself that he could see enemies' flaws while fighting them, which had saved him more than once, but he was no good at strategic thinking. That was better left for the warriors of the group. All that thinking must make them hungry, he thought to himself and handed out snacks to the others.

Tommi takes some dried meat from Lionel, and says thanks.

"So, we surround them, and hit fast and hard. From afar. We prevent them from raising an alarm or at least finish them quick enough no support can come." Vairar offers.
"We could just retreat and give our report to those after us...but I'd like to hit them now.
Tommi, can you go between them and the castle and prevent anyone from running in that direction. Someone else could go with you, who's stealthy enough not to be noticed. The rest of us target them with arrows and spells, targeting the leader...and let them come to us. If none run toward the castle, those behind them can enter the camp and attack from behind or disable any gongs or similar devices.
What do you think?"

"I have rather long range on my spells and I can run extremely fast if I cast Expeditious Retreat," Escella says. "So while I am best able to sneak off with Tommi, I am probably better used at drawing the orcs south, away from their fellows."
"Tommi really shouldn't go all alone. You two can sneak off, attack, and we can attack immediately after that. Hopefully we slay the leader and I can shout few insults at them and draw attention away from you. You can disappear into the trees again even if they know you're there somewhere. Maybe you can shoot from afar and when they start toward you, Tommi can surprise more of them. And we'll attract attention on the other side."
Vairar speaks in a hurry, it seems the humans are eager to kill the orcs at least as much as he is. But they have time this time, it's not like the manor where they had to run blindly into the fight. Ah well, at least he gets to kill some orcs.
"Dornuk, can you sneak away with Tommi?"

Angis quietly sharpened his axes, letting the elven cleric coordinate the attack. He could go either way, but his crossbow wasn’t as fast at shooting as a longbow, and he was better with his axes, anyway.

"Why don't all four of you go around to the north so everyone can stop any fleeing orcs?" Escella says. "I'll snipe them from this side and hopefully keep the entire hoard from overrunning your position. I can out run them and still send my magic bolts at them while outrunning them. When the fight ends, I'll send my first volley at whichever orc wins the fight. Wait a few ticks so that they are focused in my direction before starting your assault. But we must hurry."
