The blaring midday sun falls to cool, dappled shadows under the canopy of leaves, and -- having encountered so much trouble last time -- both of the scouts are a bit more sure-footed as they slink diagonally out of sight of their companions.Erin holds back a hissed expletive as a rabbit races out of some thick underbrush with a loud rustle. The pair freeze, but hear nothing, and soon enough decide to press on. As the darkest patch of wood begins to once again lighten, they catch the guttural rumblings ahead. Soon enough, carefully peering through the branches, they see the source: a grouping of four orcs, gathered just where the map had indicated they might find the "recruiters." Their forward-most member is clearly a more imposing figure, but none of the orcs are what one would characterize as dainty. Wilmorn can't make head nor tails of their grunts, growls, and hacking consonants, but Erin's broad linguistic background once again comes in handy, and she's able to understand the orcs speaking in their native tongue[sblock=Orc]Orc 1: "Why can't we do this at night?"Orc 2: "So hot. Hate the bright."Front Orc: "You think I like this? Comes from working with humans. Stupid human eyes don't work at night. At least we only have to be here another hour."Orc 3: "Grymblor be praised. Dark tents and raw meat make it all worth it."[/sblock]<a href="http://beta.ditzie.com/69861/54c674bc39a0d" target="_blank">CURRENT MAP</a></blockquote>
